The Malawi Chapter of the Media Institute of Southern Africa (MISA) and the whole media fraternity in the country join the nation in mourning the passing of President Bingu wa Mutharika who died on 05th April, 2012 in Lilongwe.
The news of his death has come as a shock to us as there were no reports that the late Mutharika was not feeling well.
MISA Malawi Chapter extends its condolences to the First Lady Madam Callista Mutharika, the children and the entire bereaved family at this very difficult time.
MISA Malawi Chapter would like to commend both local and international media for keeping Malawians informed about the status of our departed President at a time when government was not forthcoming with
information.
We appeal to those in authority and responsible for the funeral arrangements to ensure that the media is supplied with accurate information so that Malawians are kept informed of what is happening at every stage.
It is our hope as the fourth estate that constitutional sanity will prevail as the country goes through the transition period. We remain vigilant to provide our watchdog role for the benefit of democracy in the country.
May the soul of our late President Bingu wa Mutharika rest in eternal peace.
Signed
Anthony Kasunda
