According to the letter that Face of Malawi have in possession, Tembo is being accused of not taking lawful instruction from high authorities.
But Face of Malawi has established that, Tembo has been sent to leave because of failure of MBC from covering the press conference held by President Joyce Banda at Kamuzu palace yesterday.
