Malawi Congress Party (MCP) Secretary General Richard Chimwendo Banda denies reports that he has resigned from his position. He says a purported resignation letter circulating on social media is forged and that he has never considered stepping down.
Both outlets report that Banda addresses the rumours directly, presenting his stance that he will continue serving as the MCP’s Secretary General. Nyasa Times adds that he posts his response on Facebook (dated 6 September), rejecting the letter as “bogus” and urging that the claim is untrue. Malawi Voice likewise characterizes the resignation letter as fake and emphasizes that Banda is not planning to resign.
The accounts converge on the same core point: the resignation letter being shared online is not genuine, and Banda says he remains in office. They differ only slightly in phrasing and the specific social-media context described, without providing evidence about who created or distributed the letter.
