Joice Mujuru has invited fraud-accused ex-Malawi President Joyce Banda to her NPP convention as the guest of honour.
This comes as Malawi has issued an arrest warrant for its former Prime President over alleged abuse of office and money laundering offences over a two year period when she was in office.
Malawi police are said to have asked for INTERPOL’s assistance in arresting Mrs Banda who is currently out of the country. She has yet to comment on the arrest warrant.
The 67-year-old served as the country’s president between April 2012 to May 2014. She is founder and leader of the People’s Party which was established in 2011. She had previously served as vice-president to late president Bingu wa Mutharika.
She took over power after her boss died in office but she heavily lost 2014 elections to incumbent Peter Mutharika.
