User:Hastings Kamuzu Banda (Jnr)

Hastings Kamuzu Banda, Jnr is the only son between Dr. Hastings Kamuzu Banda and his long time confidant, Cecilia Kadzamira. He was born in France in 1972 and was secretly brought to Malawi then handed over to the care of William Phiri, a Police Special Branch officer who was one of the most trusted. Under him, he was raised up and educated in Zimbabwe and the U.K. where he spent many years in limbo. On William Phiri’s deathbed, his true parentage was revealed leading to the cautious and subtle follow up. In 2011, with the assistance of his ex-wife, he managed to get in touch with his mother Cecilia Kadzamira who first met him on his wedding day. The mother and child relationship was rekindled with successive visits to his mother’s 2 homes, Blantyre and Lilongwe. When he tried to reclaim his birthright through his mother, it did not sit well with his mother, Cecilia Kadzamira - who feared her uncle, leading to her shunning him and cutting off ties. He is still living in Malawi with a quest to legally reclaim his birthright and plans to hold a tell-all press conference to aid his bid at restoring his name.
