The newly elected President, Professor Peter Mutharika has moved to Mtumthama State Lodge in the capital Lilongwe awaiting renovations of the Kamuzu palace(formerly known as New State House) which will be his official residence.
Former president Joyce Banda left Kamuzu Palace last week after Mutharika was declared winner of the May 2o presidential elections.
Her former press officer Tusekele Mwanyongo confirmed Banda was in Nkhatabay and “would not return to Kamuzu Palace.”
Kamuzu Banda, Malawi’s founding president, spent only 90 days in the palace which took 20 years to build and cost $100m.
