“It is true that I am grateful to NBS Bank for stepping up to be the Diamond Sponsor of my Charity Tournament this year. It is true that I am grateful to the other businesses and corporations that have responded to my appeal for support by pouring serious monies into this cause,” he said.
Chakwera emphasized the importance of continuing to assist those affected by Cyclone Freddy and El Nino, highlighting it as a noble cause essential for the country’s development.
Additionally, he highlighted the significance of investing in the future of university students who are facing challenges in paying their tuition fees and other expenses.
The President therefore urged the community and the corporate sector to give back to society and embrace patriotism.
