Madam Joyce is a real African leader with direction and empowerment attributes. Malawi lost a leader by not reelecting her. If Malawians are serious about growth then they have to fight off Patriarchy. President Joyce Banda, is a true leader, a true President. What a speech at the funeral of Tata Nelson R. Mandela. I was so touched by your speech, ended up tears rolling slowly over my face. God Almighty be with you and guide you to bring peace and prosperity in Malawi and help you revive the economy. You showed the whole world that you learnt from Tata as you took to work with those who plotted to silence you. Wishing you all the best, Dr. Banda.
