Calista Mutharika, a widow to the country’s third republic president Bingu Wa Mutharika is missing the memorial service of the fallen leader.
According to reports, the widow to Bingu is in Kenya where she is discharging ambassadorial duties.
Calista however, has wrote a message in today’s daily papers she has narrated some events that happened before Bingu’s death.
“You left me in body, but in spirit we are together. I still romantically catch you in this blowing wind. You remain tangible in my warm arms,” part of the message says.
She continued that Bingu shared a visionary leadership with the world and that his love for the elderly was unparalleled.
Suspiciously, no government official is present at the memorial service which is taking place at Chizinga Catholic Parish, Goliati in Thyolo District.
It is not clear if the invitation was not extended to government officials.
After the church service, the ceremony will proceed to Mpumulo wa Bata where Bingu was laid for laying of wreath.
