Malawi President Bingu wa Mutharika Dies

The president of Malawi, Bingu wa Mutharika, died yesterday of a massive heart attack. The comments that people have left about the article below give good insight into the sentiments of the people here.
Streets are quiet today as most Malawians are home for the holiday weekend. Most seem anxious for what is to come, hopeful after what has ended, but lack faith in their political system. It feels very much like I am an onlooker, watching the shift of an entire nation that is not my own. Hopefully, Malawi can transition to a new leadership peacefully.
