“Let me inform Malawians that the process of establishing a channel for Malawi football is coming to an end. The crucial stage was entering into partnership with the Malawi Digital Broadcast Network (MDBN) for them to give us a channel on Kiliyekiliye. That was done. Right now we are working with media institutions who will be producing some programmes on the channel in addition to beaming live games.
“We are finalizing everything with MBC Tv and Mibawa Television. Malawians will be able to watch their own football on Mpira Channel 122 on Malawi Digital Broadcast Network Kiliyekiliye decoder by the end of this month or early next month (April),” explained Matola to the local media.
