By Burnett Munthali

In a moving display of faith, peace, and unity, iNkosi ya aMakhosi Gomani V, Vice President Michael Usi, Mary Chilima, the spouse of the late Vice President Saulos Chilima, and Sunganani Banda, wife of late music icon Lucius Banda, jointly released doves as part of a memorial service. The symbolic act took place during a ceremony marking the end of the traditional mourning period for both Chilima and Banda at Nsipe Catholic Ground in Ntcheu.

The release of doves served as a powerful gesture, symbolizing the hope for continued peace and unity among Malawians even in challenging times. As the doves soared into the sky, attendees stood in silence, reflecting on the contributions of the two late national figures who, in their own ways, dedicated themselves to the service of the people of Malawi.

This memorial service not only honored the legacies of Chilima, who held the esteemed position of Vice President, and Banda, a beloved figure in Malawi’s music industry, but also underscored a commitment to unity across the nation. The two men, both of whom passed away in June this year, left indelible marks on Malawian society, with Chilima remembered for his leadership and Banda celebrated for his impact on culture and music.

Speaking at the event, iNkosi ya aMakhosi Gomani V expressed his hope that this act of releasing doves would encourage Malawians to embrace peace and work together in harmony, especially during these times of national mourning. Vice President Michael Usi echoed these sentiments, reminding attendees that Chilima and Banda’s lives should inspire unity and mutual support among all Malawians.

The memorial service at Nsipe Catholic Ground included various other cultural and religious activities, as friends, family, and supporters gathered to pay tribute to the lives of these two influential figures. The gathering was a fitting farewell, bringing together leaders, family, and citizens in a shared moment of reflection, honoring both Chilima and Banda’s contributions to Malawi.
