Malawi's president is beating back calls for her to resign after hundreds of thousands of civil servants demanding a wage increase went on a two-week long strike, shuttering the country's international airport and paralyzing hospitals and schools. 
Rais wa Malawi ametupilia mbali mashinikizo ya kumtaka ajiuzulu mara baada ya mamia ya maelfu ya wafanyakazi wa umma wanaoshinikiza mishahara yao iongezwe, kuingia katika mgomo wa majuma mawili, kufunga uwanja wa ndege wa kimataifa nchini humo pamoja na kuzorotesha huduma za hospitalini na mashuleni.
