Celebrities like Kell Kay , Lawi , Lulu, Gwamba, Temwa and Agide and others are already planning a music concert to bell out their fellow celebrity, from this dilemma.
This act of generosity has brought about public criticism accusing the event as a divide between the poor and the wealthy.

Lawi writes on his Facebook page that the problems that the rich faces are also problems and that they are supposed to be helped.
As it stands, companies like Chibiso motors have already contributed to the fundraiser by buying tickets for all their employees. Among other quarters who have jumped in with support are, “Prime Time” who have donated over 2 Million Malawi Kwacha , Vehicles and fuel to help in preparation for the coming fundraiser, as far as logistics are concerned.
