So that way you do not take out forex from government\u2019s reserves.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I travel I only use the card, when I withdraw money, it comes out of the Kwacha account without me carrying any US dollar note,\u201d said NyaLonje, who was addressing the press alongside Minister of Foreign Affairs Nancy Tembo and Minister of Information Gospel Kazako.<\/p>\n<p>A video clip of NyaLonje\u2019s remarks have been shared widely on social media today. Social commentator Onjezani Kenani also posted the clip and corrected NyaLonje, saying when a person who is abroad uses their local card to pay for anything, the traveller\u2019s bank sent the required forex and that way forex is externalized.<\/p>\n<p>On Twitter, Journalist Jack McBrams also blasted the minister over her remarks. \u201cI always thought she was one of the smartest in President @LAZARUSCHAKWERA\u2019s inept cabinet, but the ignorance displayed here by #Malawi\u2019s minister of education Agnes Nyalonje is purely criminal,\u201d said McBrams.<\/p>\n<p>Another Twitter user said: \u201cIs she listening to herself? The level of garbage coming from a whole minister is absolutely amazing! Can someone @MinOfEducation educate this woman about forex transactions?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>NyaLonje was among the ministers who travelled with Chakwera last month to the United States for the UNGA. A published report revealed that 21,000 United States dollars was being spent on allowances per day for Chakwera\u2019s delegation in the US.
