Malawi's president 'furious' after Madonna criticised
Malawi President NEVER issued a statement about MADONNA!
She was unaware of the harshly-critical statement that was issued by her office following Madonna's recent visit to the country, senior officials have said. The statement accused Madonna of exaggerating her contribution to the country and demanding VIP treatment.
Madonna, who was visiting her charity in Malawi, hit back at the criticisms. She described them as lies and said she began her involvement in Malawi seven years ago "with honourable intentions".
Red carpet
A well-placed source told the BBC that President Banda was "incandescent with anger" when she heard about the statement, and a senior official has confirmed she knew nothing about it. The statement issued on Wednesday, accused the star of wanting Malawi "to be forever chained to the obligation of gratitude". It claimed Madonna believed the government should have "rolled out a red carpet and blast the 21-gun salute" upon her arrival in Malawi.
