That's very tempting story.  Now it's time to make sure , we send a clear message to our people that crimes do not pay. I am sure, my colleagues there ( Malawi) wil go for  what ever benefits he has acquired on the process.


Well done Malawi! Africa must clean the bushes for criminals.. left them nowhere to hide!

I think I like the " LEAVE THEM NOWHERE TO HIDE"  idea that SABRA came up with.

Don't you think that this could make a very good slogan for ARINSA?

It is a very good slogan yes, but I think it is a bit too general especially for someone who does not know what ARINSA is all about. Don't you think we should mention the term "Criminals" somewhere? e.g "LEAVE CRIMINALS NO WHERE TO HIDE"

I agree with Prisca, the slogan should specifically mention 'criminals'....it wil serve the purpose.
