Turning 85 is no small feat — in fact, it’s miraculous in a country where, in 1940, life expectancy barely scratched 35. You’ve built a life that most Malawians can only read about — because they weren’t yet born when you were shaping it. Their lives are moving at the speed of 5G — and they need a leader who doesn’t need help opening PDFs or understanding memes. But do not insult your legacy by entering this race like a man who doesn’t know when the music has stopped. Be remembered not as the last of the old, But as the first elder who made way for the new.
