Malawi speaker suspends lawmakers over President’s speech

The Speaker of Malawi’s Parliament has suspended five lawmakers from attending deliberations. This, after chaos erupted when legislators accused President Lazarus Chakwera of lying to Parliament over projects completed during his four years in office. In his State of the Nation Address last Friday President Chakwera highlighted the success of various projects which opposition lawmakers say never existed. However, in his video statement released Wednesday night, Chakwera said he will clarify his comments on Friday. Lameck Masina reports from Blantyre.
