Malawi President Bingu Wa Mutharika on Tuesday urged his compatriots to give the country’s representative and finalist in South Africa\’s popular TV Reality Show Big Brother Africa, Hazel Warren, a grand welcome when she returns home on Wednesday.
Hazel, a Lilongwe resident, is expected to land at Kamuzu International Airport in the Malawi capital after successfully reaching the finals of the three-month contest in which she lost the grand prize of US$100,000 to Angolan Ricco Venancio.
The president said the young lady deserved a grand welcome from fellow Malawians for doing the nation proud during her stay in the house which lasted 91 days.
"The nation is very happy of her superb performance, and for putting Malawi on the international map of cultural achievers," he said.
He said although Hazel lost by a small margin to the Angolan, it clearly indicated that Malawians had the capability and had the stamina to participate in international competitions.
Hazel lost to Venancio after a tie broken by a percentage calculation.
