UK-(MaraviPost)-Malawi Vice President Dr Jane Mayemu Ansah, SC, JA (Rtd), has departed the United Kingdom and is expected to arrive home in Lilongwe on Thursday, 15 January 2026, bringing an end to her private visit abroad.

The Vice President left via Heathrow Airport and is scheduled to land at Kamuzu International Airport at 12:50 PM aboard flight ET876, marking the beginning of her return to official duties.

Dr Ansah travelled to the United Kingdom on a private visit and is now returning to Malawi to resume her official duties, no doubt with a renewed sense of purpose and energy.

She was seen off at Heathrow Airport by Malawi High Commissioner to the UK Dr Thomas Bisika, Chairperson of the DPP UK Wing Dr Kennedy Nkhoma and Treasurer Camden Kazunguza among others, a testament to the respect and admiration she commands among her peers.

The Vice President’s return is eagerly anticipated by the people of Malawi, who expect her to continue championing the government’s development agenda and promoting national unity.

Her visit to the UK was likely an opportunity for her to engage with the Malawian diaspora, discuss bilateral relations, and explore avenues for cooperation and partnership.

Dr Ansah’s return underscores the importance of her role in shaping the country’s future and addressing pressing issues such as economic growth, healthcare, and education.

As she touches down at Kamuzu International Airport, Dr Ansah will be welcomed back by a nation eager to hear her vision for Malawi’s development and progress.

The Vice President’s schedule upon her return is likely to be packed with meetings, engagements, and official duties, as she hits the ground running and gets back to work serving the people of Malawi.

Her return is a significant event for Malawi, highlighting the Vice President’s commitment to her role and her dedication to the country’s development.

Dr Ansah’s leadership will undoubtedly play a pivotal role in shaping the country’s trajectory in the months and years ahead, and her return is a welcome development for the nation.

The people of Malawi are looking forward to her return and the contributions she will make to the country’s growth and prosperity.
