This has been disclosed by UNIMA’s assistant registrar (Communication and Marketing), Peter Mitunda.

Mitunda said in a statement made available to Nyasa Times that five parades by cohorts of graduates streamlined by a period of a decade from 1965, will march to the tune of the Malawi Police Service and Malawi Defence Force brass bands from the Blantyre Civic Centre to Kamuzu Stadium.

He said activities at the stadium will include conferment of honorary degrees, floats of scholarly exhibitions by students and lecturers as well as floats of UNIMA alumni symbolizing collaboration with society.

“A documentary cataloguing the life journey of the University of Malawi in its 50 years of existence; Netball and football matches between UNIMA veterans and current students, and launching of the UNIMA flag and Unima anthem,” the statement reads/

To curtain-raise the climax of the celebrations, Mitunda said an International Conference and Gala Ball will take place at Hotel Victoria from September 24 to 25.

According to Mitunda, a Thought Leadership Dialogue will be held at Chancellor College from September 30 to October 1.

If you want you can put a picture of Bakali Muluzi or his son Atupele Muluzi ? It’s in order to put a picture of Chakwera than Bingu , Peter , JB , Khumbo , Tembo etc .
