Tennis star Rodger Federer to visit Malawi
Tennis superstar Rodger Federer will on Monday visit Malawi to launch Lundu Community-Based Childcare Centre among other things.
ActionAid country director Martha Khonje said the Swiss tennis star, who will be accompanied by Minister of Gender, Children, Disability and Social Welfare Patricia Kaliati will hold a news conference soon after arrival at Kamuzu International on Monday July 20.
Federer is president of the Rodger Federer Foundation, which supports the implementation of ActionAid’s comprehensive and satellite early childhood development programme in districts of Chitipa, Ntchisi, Nsanje, Rumphi, Machinga and Lilongwe.
The programme has funding of $13.5 million [MK6.1 billion] running for a 10-year period. The programme started in 2011
Since its inception, the 14 000 children have benefitted from higher quality of early learning. The next phase of the programme aims at constructing 18 more preschools to ensure that 37 000 children aged 3-5 years have access
to Early Childhood services.

Ujen,
Look here, the guy has spent 13.5million. He will be in Malawi in few weeks or month. Are you guys going to show him that summer hurt as a class room. God help us. We need real earl childhood class room- with state of the art technology in them. The guy has spent,and is ready to spend more money for the next ten years. and this is what he is going to be shown? Hope not. if the answer is yes.
You must be joking. Don’t tell us you spent 13.5 Million to build the above ( chilindo) summer hurt, please show us the building?
Madona left because of mismanagement of money by Malawian. Please give us a break!
Tan bello mi Roger
I am very humbled indeed! It’s news to some of us that the project has been running for some years now. Is it that our print media is not active? sports journalists how come you missed the story…..
No 1 I totally agree with you.Lets publicise Rodger’s visit that the world know.Koma tidikila wina wake may be from the moon/sun to do it on our behalf.
LUNDU IS IN CHIKWAWA NOT NSANJE.
I WONDER IF KONDWANI NANKHUMWA KNOWS HIM; HE ONLY KNOWS JOE GWALADI
You very correct #1.
koma Kaliati akumuziwa Roger Federer?
Thats nice he will be in Mw, but which lundu is this that he will go to?
Atoleko mwana modzi ngati Madonna.He should also start a Tennis Academy probably in 20yrs to come we can have our version of Serena and Venus Williams.We will hv the court full of mkandawires,chirwas,mhango and other northerners.Paja kudana ndi success ya atumbuka in everything.
Well done brother. Keep the fire burning. Education is key to Malawis progress

Welcome
do these initiatives really benefit the most needy on the grassroots?? or they benefit the NGO bosses only?? I’ve never heard about Federer’s foundation in Malawi. Akabweraa mumva wanyanyala a Malawi amubera ndalama zake kkkkkk
You want a bigger global sports superstar, it doesn’t get any better than Rodger Federer. Not Asamoah Gyan, who is he? Now check how ignorant Tribalists backward Malawians will react to his coming, kuli zii even government officials are as ignorant of a global star. These are the guys who can sell Malawi, attract multinationals to strike deals with Malawi, like Gillette, Adidas, Nike,and other sports drinks manufacturing companies, publicise his coming massively and will reap good things. Sitting phwiii and hopping Malawi will sell itself out there, it will never happen. Let the President give him an audience, this guy is gold.
