Malawi President Dr Lazarus McCarthy Chakwera has safely arrived back home from Saudi Arabia and Egypt where he went last week.
In Saudi Arabia, Chakwera attended the Saudi Arab – African Economic Conference before proceeding to Cairo where he attended the 2023 Intra – Africa Trade Fair.
High on the agenda in Saudi Arabia was the signing of the $20 million meant for the much awaited Mangochi- Makanjira road deal between Malawi and the Saudi Fund for Development.
On the sidelines of the trade fair in Egypt, Chakwera shared notes with Afreximbank Board Chairperson and President Benedict Oramah.
He was welcomed at Kamuzu International Airport (KIA) by Vice President Saulos Klaus Chilima and several other government officials.
However, President Chakwera did not interface with the media due to rains.
President Chakwera is due to address Malawians tomorrow from 7 pm.
