The village community of Headman William of Bangwe off Robert Mugabe Highway at Chikunda, has kept its self-sponsored special Independence Celebration on July 6 since 2010, initiated by their traditional leader in conjunction with his well-wishing subjects.
The community chooses a working committee after every two years that mobilises funds which help them to finance special luncheons as well as celebration activities performed by volunteer artists of the village.
Village Headman William addressing his subjects
Carrying on the tradition on Tuesday, VGE William said the idea was mooted 10 years ago when he sympathized that not many people were able to travel to Kamuzu Stadium to attend national Independence Day celebrations thus denying the younger generation from appreciating the importance of the day.
