  5. The daughter of former president Bakili Muluzi, Esmie, and her friend, Hazel Busili, have been killed by lightning in Blantyre. Sources close to the family said the two were killed while they were working in a farm on the outskirts of the city. The accident happened around lunch hour. Spokesperson for the United Democratic Front (UDF) Ken Ndanga confirmed the incident in an interview with Zodiak, saying he had been authorised to speak on behalf of the family. Our reporter Maganizo Mazeze said the bodies of the two were taken to Mwaiwathu Private Hospital in the city before they were later moved to College of Medicine Mortuary. Muluzi and several UDF officials were seen at Mwaiwathu Hospital. It has not been raining heavily in Blantyre since last week, except for the early hours of today in some parts, said Mazeze, so the accident has come as a surprise for many. News of the death was also announced in parliament in Lilongwe in the afternoon. MPs paid their condolence messages. Esmie’s brother, Atupele, who is a member of parliament, was not present in the chamber this afternoon. Muluzi’s former wife, Shanil, who is also an MP, was also not present in the house.
