Malawi Kamuzu Day

Malawi

Flag for the country of Malawi.

Kamuzu Day honors the nation’s first president, Dr. Kamuzu Banda. Hastings Kamuzu Banda (1896 – 25 November 1997) was the leader of Malawi, from 1961 to 1994.

Shortly after British Nyasaland was granted independence as Malawi in 1964, Banda adopted a new constitution which declared him the first president. He quickly consolidated power and eventually declared Malawi a one party state under the Malawi Congress Party. In 1970, the MCP declared him the party’s President for Life. In 1971, Banda declared himself President for Life of Malawi itself.
