The neighboring village headman to Chinangwa was during the night found stealing cobs of maize from one of his people’s storage. Eyewitness who had with his girl lover chatting at a dark place near a certain house confirmed. “I was just chatting with my lover just behind the house. We wondered to see a person coming slowly and enter the storage” said the boy. When he entered the storage, (nkhokwe) that is Chichewa language the thief started packing maize cobs in his sack. Nkhokwe is storage of various agricultural yields like maize, sorghum and many more. It is built outside the house either with bamboo or bricks in a round shape with a roof mainly grass thatched. The boy knocked the nkhokwe’s owner and tipped him about the thief. The owner woke up with a panga knife and a long arrow. He demanded the thief to get outside the storage. “Please do not kill me I am your village headman, please forgive me” the village headman sympathetically apologized. The storage owner called some villagers to witness what their leader was doing. He then had taken to group village headman for hearing. The group village headman demanded the stealing leader to pay three goats and working at the maize owner for five months on daily basis.

While I was at the office one cane farmer came while drunk claiming burial fund committee to assist him. “My brother inlaw has passed away, I wanted you to assist me with some hard cash” said the farmer while crying. The secretary to burial fund told him to wait for the chairperson’s consideration. Suddenly his wife arrived at the office. “Please don’t assist him because is just lying that his brother inlaw has passed. Look at him clearly, and then you can notice that he is drunk. He just wanted to use that money for taking beer” said the wife privately with the chairperson. It was noticed that the man was drunk and he just pretended the funeral in order to have access to cash for beer. Many people in different institutions do cheat to their employers in order to have access to hard cash for their own interests.

Fuel raise made the traveling cost to be higher in past three months. As I budgeted for the whole year for studies cost in terms of transport for two days every weekend, it is still a problem. However, I tried to reserve the whole month traveling cost. I sometimes fail to buy even relish for home, but I manage going to school in weekends. When I was at the work, I paid an excuse to go to my bank drawing some money for the following day travel to Blantyre attending classes.
