Born into a family of farmers in Dedza, central Malawi, Lazurus's parents had five children and his younger brother was also born with albinism. The condition affects the production of the pigment that gives skin, hair and eyes their colour and also means that skin burns very easily. "We couldn’t afford sun cream, so our parents took the decision to literally lock me and my brother in the house to protect us from the sun."When Lazarus and his brother did go out, the other children threw stones at them, thinking they would catch albinism. Because of this deep-rooted discrimination, Lazarus’s brother Peter knew they would never be able to get work like other people in the village and he suggested they forge a path in music together.
Many people in Malawi and other East African countries wrongly believe that the body parts of people with albinism can bring wealth or good luck. People with albinism are frequently abducted, murdered or mutilated to supply this grisly trade. It’s something that Lazarus has witnessed first-hand.
We are so tired of wars,Mr Warren buffet,we know,your among the war mongers sponsoring wars under your false charity organisation in DRC,we have the evidence,and am yet to share it with the public if you don't stop funding wars,we are tired of seeing our brother and sister dieing
Please,kindly we ask your government to stop funding these wars for your own interests,you can still get what you want from us without creating wars using museven and kagame. We need peace like what it's in your countries.
To be EAC member, DRC will be a problem instead of being response ! Better to be suspended for self-awareness
