President Dr Lazarus Chakwera has hit on bogus expatriates, who come to Malawi to take jobs that can be done by locals.

He said in his first State Of Nation Address (SONA) that Malawi has seen an influx of expatriates without expertise.

He blamed institutions that are responsible for recruitment of expatriates as responsible for this laxity.

“We shall not allow our hospitality to disadvantage our citizens,” the Malawi leader said.

He added:” Jobs created in Malawi are not free for all.
