Prophet TB Joshua's prophecy fulfilled as Malawi president dies
MALAWI president Professor Bingu wa Mutharika who suffered a cardiac arrest Thursday morning is reportedly dead. This is in fulfillment to Prophet TB Joshua's prophect that an old african leader was going to die on the 6th of April. However there hasn't been any official communication from the country's government so far.
Former head of state Bakili Muluzi Friday morning held a press conference at his residence urging government to come out in the open about the president's condition whilst calling for vice president Joyce Banda to assume leadership should Professor Mutharika be declared unfit to hold office.
Malawi Voice quoted Dr Muluzi urging Malawians to be patient as the country awaits official communication from government on the death rumour.
President Wa Mutharika was hospitalised at Kamuzu Central Hospital after suffering a cardiac arrest on Thursday and was later flown to South Africa for further treatment.
Doctors at the South African hospital say efforts to resuscitate President Mutharika failed and that an official announcement is being prepared. Reports from Malawi's main city, Blantyre, say cabinet ministers met all night to discuss the situation.
According to the constitution, the Vice-President Joyce Banda takes over if the head of state is incapacitated or dies in office.
