President Mutharika joins thousands at Bingu memorial service
President Peter Mutharika on Saturday joined thousands guests at the memorial service of former president Bingu wa Mutharika, who was his blood brother.
But the President did not make a speech, the first time Mutharika had not spoken during the service since his brother passed away in 2012.
The Malawi leader and the First Lady Gertrude Mutharika were present.
No reasons were given for his failure to speak at Ndata in Thyolo.
Bingu’s only son, Madalitso Mutharika, surprised many when he spoke for less than a minute.
In his deep American accent, in very low voice, Madalitso thanked President Mutharika and others for organising the memorial service.
He spoke on behalf of the children and grand children of the former president.
In his speech, Arch-Bishop Thomas Msusa welcomed Mutharika’s decision to deploy Malawi Defense Force soldiers in the country’s borders to stop illegal export of maize.
“We are expecting bumper yield this year but this should be no cause for illegal export of maize. We need maize here, our people need food all the time,” he said.
He said the maize export ban should not be lifted and Admarc should not sell off its maize abroad in whatever circumstances.
Others who spoke during the service, including a representative of the Mutharika family and the secretary general of the ruling Democratic Progressive Party described Bingu as a visionary leader who had transformed the country for the better during his eight year rule.

Kodi chief mourner, namalila wamkulu ndi ndani pamenepa? I have never understood why in all these memorials, the surviving spouse Madam Callista is marginalised. Mumamukumbukila pa nkhata poti pamenepo mu ma jama. You have DPP officials kuyankhula, and yet olo kufunsa oimila kwa Madam Callista or even the former first lady amene to speak and celebrate her husband’s life. Shame. Chikumbumtima mulibe.
Prolific words DZAMBO.Why should the impoverished people waste their time and energy remembering a thug who stole billions of KWACHA from government coffers for his own interests,while the people are facing atrocious poverty,lack of drugs in the hospitals,shortage of power and water have become a norm the list is long.No Malawian with active brains,would cry for this demon who is now languishing in the sea of inferno.These two rogues came to Malawi to exploit and enrich themselves and members of their families.By the way,where did these thieves come from? We could have learnt a vivid lesson from Banda.As it is… Read more »
