American pop star, Madonna, is in Blantyre, Malawi.

The pop idol is set to visit Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital (QECH) in Blantyre.

Madonna is a frequent visitor to QECH, where she handed over the Mercy James Paediatric Ward last year.

The philanthropist, who has put Malawi on the map, will donate undisclosed items to the facility.

She has been on a fundraising drive that has seen her reach out to more than 10, 000 Malawian children, most of them have accessed services at the Mercy James Paediatric Ward, named after her adopted daughter Mercy, in Blantyre.

Madonna has four adopted children from Malawi,  among them David, Mercy and twins she adopted two years ago.

She remains a darling of Malawians.
