Lazarus Chakwera, the president of Malawi, is said to have
travelled to the United Kingdom (UK) to attend a virtual conference owing to
bad internet connection in his country.
Chakwera, left his country to attend the Global Education
Summit which is hosted by the British prime minister, and Malawi being one of
the beneficiaries of the programme needed representation.
The Malawian president in defence of his action said the
internet connection in his country is not reliable and that may affect his
participation.
Chakwera listed 10 delegates who accompanied him on the
journey, including his wife and daughter, but he reportedly dropped the
minister for foreign affairs.
According to him, his daughter was included in the
delegation to take care of his wife who is not feeling well and to give
physical support.
The president’s reason for embarking on the journey sparked
criticism in Malawi and some critics accused him of nepotism.
