Malawi President Peter Mutharika and the First Lady Gertrude Mutharika today hosted a Childrens Christmas Party at Kamuzu Palace, in the capital, Lilongwe.
The President who has been attacked by many ditractors for everything he has done since being sworn into office let it be known that the Christmas party for children was funded by the first couple and no Tax payers money was wasted. “This event has been privately sponsored by myself and the first Lady. No single tambala has come from government,” Mutharika said.
The children who attended the State House Christmas party were drawn from different churches and organizations in city.
Activities started at noon with children singing songs, reciting poems and Biblical verses. Some of the children enjoyed games in a giant inflatable kid playground at the State House Christmas party.
In her speech, the First Lady Madam Gertrude Mutharika has expressed her gratitude to different churches that accepted the invitation to bring children to the party.
The President in his turn pledged to protect the rights of all children in the country.
