The dreadlocked man adds that in the clip that under the Malawi Congress Party (MCP), persons with albinism are no longer hunted, attacked and killed as it was the case during the previous regime.

“Thank you to the MCP party because it has helped us a lot. My fellow albinos, we are not being killed. And we are thankful that we are not being killed because of MCP. During the time of another party, we were being killed. Today, I will drink beer until 12:30 AM,” he says.
