Madonna faces criticism for dancing on tables at Malawi presidential palace: ‘Virtues of Kabbalah cult’
US pop star Madonna is facing criticisms in social media platforms after she sat on tables and danced when she went to meet President Lazarus Chakwera last week with some critics saying she was spreading the virtues of Kabbalah sect of Judasim to the Malawian head of states who is an ordained evangelical pastor.
Madonna is seen in a video clip wearing black dress sitting on tables and later making dancing antics in a room she met President Chakwera.
Some sections of society have taken up in social media platforms condemning her, saying this was disrespectful to the State House.
It is yet to be establish whether permission was sought from authorities for her to act that way in Kamuzu Palace.
Others criticise Madonna that she wants to spread the virtues of Kabbalah, an ancient form of Jewish mysticism.
Central to Kabbalah is the reading of the 23-volume Zohar, or Book of Splendor, which explains the secrets of the Bible and, indeed, every aspect of life. That it is written in ancient Aramaic is not an insurmountable problem: devotees are instructed to scan the text with a finger in order to absorb the teaching of the book.
Claims abound that Kabbalah is a cult that exploits people financially and psychologically.
Meanwhile, Chakwera has also triggered criticism for shaking hands with e Kabbalist
Celebrity Madonna and talking to her without a face mask on.
A video making rounds on social media shows the two talking straight into each other’s face, apparently without regard to rising numbers of Covid-19 cases in Malawi.
Yesterday alone, three people died of Covid-19 while 132 new cases were registered.
Critics say the President should have led by example in adhering to the preventive measures of the pandemic.

Madonna was born a musician and the world knows her as a musician. Is dancing wrong for a musician? That is how she has made her money. What is wrong with Kabbalah? Did Chakwera not host Ras Chikomeni in his dreadlocks? Why did you not criticize him for take Rastafarism and ganja to state house? Is this not racism? We are very negative people and all we know is negative publicity. We always look at the dark side of things and forgetting the good things Madonna is doing. We will never develop if we continue like this.
Well done
Well said
People commenting on here as if Madonna cares 🙂
Does anybody seriously think we need this women ,if it wasn’t for the unprecedented looting perpetrated by UDF/DPP/PP ,we would be looking after our orphans,young,old,building hospitals,proper schools,not just blocks,we would have the best the world has,but our misfortune to be ruled by people who claim to be Malawians,in reality a bunch of mercenaries,rogues,as for the singer she’s not the young Madonna anymore,in the west to become old it’s a sin,so for her to remain relevant she has exploited,preyed on our inability to look after our own people and country.
What have you done as a patriotic young Malawian to your own people? Much as I agree with you that there is too much looting in our government, this should not stop someone from rendering assistance to the marginalised.

Misa Malawi’s journalists and journalism
Money talks… Munthu wamba sangakavine kumeneko
You just took the words out of my mouth Zoba! Money can indeed turn a noble Christian president into an inept bystander as the rich juvenile music dancer run rings around the state House. Oh, this world!
Kkkk don’t see why are u criticising her, this wasn’t even in your house. This is nothing to worry about. Let’s be wise people, talk about how to end this corruption in this country. We need jobs, government that cares about it’s citizens & bring its citizens together in order to build a better Malawi. Better Malawi & in togetherness there is power of unique
Kabbalah is Satanism Period.
Much ado about nothing! And for the record, it wasn’t a table.
So what was it? Whether it is for dining or coffee it is still a table. No?
Ma pose ngati a apostle Jane Ansah, koma ziliko zaka zino!
Only you know is satanissm
Za uyu ndiye tidakamba kale koma anthu adanditukwana, this old white lady has a very strange spirit, I wonder what her real mission in Malawi is behind the mask of adopting young kids, that’s Mama Madonna for you, live with it!
Non-issue. She was meeting president not Jesus. She has taken photos there, what’s the deal. At least she is not stealing from public coffers by conspiring with Indian and Pakistani business people. Instead, look at the minister’s threatening journalists, ministers becoming stinking rich quickly (Mia, Mtambo, Mkaka), ministers involved in illegal mining.
That is beside the point. Any of the malawian musicians would never be allowed to stick their asses on that respectable presidential asset.
Amalawi munthu asamasuke!!! Is thia an issue?
Are you kidding me?! STOP BEING OVER DRAMATIC. People freaking out need to grow up.
Who has never sat on the table in their house? Holier than thou…….typical Malawians
This was not their or her house. Would any Malawi musician be allowed to stick their asses on that table?
Calm down people!! Those walls have seen bad things than what Madonna was doing. If only those walls could talk.
Nothing here. Anyone with billions can shit anywhere.
Can I?
Having her own problems, Madonna is coming from free world and these people are celebrities and dancing is not an issue for them.Let’s focuses on what she is doing to us, is bad or good.Let’s stop making noise pa zinthu za ziii. stop
Correct. This however should not be accepted as the norm at a Palace where the incumbent president pretends to be a noble Christian
Zolengedwa za Chisumphiyo 🇲🇼
useless article, always criticising, negativity and fault finding, of all positives in the meeting between H.E chakwera and Madona all you saw were these reported negatives. nyasatimes reporters suck!
Nyasatimes are bringing to those of us who are not privileged to witness what goes on at our tax payers mansions. Keep it up Nyasatimes
aMalawi khalankoni serious aaah
Why accuse Madonna when she went there with the Pastor? That’s what she is ndiye ngati anamasukako kumeneko basi alipo amene anamumasula. The handshake itself was worth noting so it’s fine. She was free in her own world
What respect…she is an artist and an entertainer .Zili zonse mumafuna za serious…there is dome humournin that…kusayenda ndi umbilindo bwanji.
Nothing wrong with entertainment here. Would any of the Malawian music entertainers be allowed to leave their scents on that table?
Malawi has no leadership. Once upon a time Malawians were told by their leader when he visited Tanzania that he could not wear a mask because that would have compromised the diplomacy when Tanzanians including their President do not wear masks. Malawians cautiously accepted it, but what better explanation does Chakwera have now to sit next to Madonna and talk without masks and shake hands. Can this woman do that with Donald Trump in America? We have a leader with no standards.
THIS IS THE TYPE OF PRESIDENCY/LEADERSHIP THAT MALAWI NEEDS, FLEXIBLE, ADAPTABLE, TOLERABLE, AND BALANCED UP. OSAMANGOTI NDWIIIII, PHWIIII NGATI CHISINGA’ANGA OR CHI ROBOT. AFTER ALL, MADONNA COULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO STATEHOUSE IF SHE HAD SIGNS OF CORVID…..
Why don’t the president resist some of these immoral visitors? It’s too soon for H. E. to be captured by sinful Europeans/Americans. I never expected a confessed man of god to enjoy attractive countenance with such people as the pop stars.
True Chakwera is very childish ndiokonda ku njoya. American life it’s very different from British. He always needs attention seeking. Zinazi akutaya nazo ulemu ndi chikhalidwe cha Malawi ndi chifukwa anthu akutokota kaya. Munthuyo ngofunika kumuzanso za chikhalidwe sikulakwitsa ayi.
True.
Basitu, vilemi dazi walowa scientology for his love of dirty money.
