An expert criticized President Chakwera's new jobs pledge. The leader said he would create three million work spots if voters pick him again on September 16. He discussed this plan during a recent Labor Day event, where he also promised cheaper goods and better pay for workers.
Thomas Chirwa thinks these claims make no sense. He asks how someone who created fewer than a million jobs in five years could suddenly create three times more. Chirwa says the speech writers need to give the president better material. The current government struggles with high prices and flat wages for state employees.
The administration claims it has already created about 900,000 jobs since taking power in 2020. Many doubt these numbers actually helped real people. When voters head to the ballot boxes, they will look at what the president did versus what he promised. The race looks close as people think hard about who should lead their country next.
