BLANTYRE-(MaraviPost)-The Malawi Broadcasting Corporation (MBC) board of directors has dismissed the institution’s director general George Kasakula.

Kasakula confirmed the development, saying he received the dismissal letter today.

“It is true, the board has summarily dismissed me. They are saying I was partisan,” he told Nationonline.

The decision follows his appearance before the board’s Human Resource and Administration Committee last week.

Kasakula was appointed MBC director general in 2021 and signed a new contract in June 2024 running up to June 2027.

In October last year, he was suspended from the public broadcaster pending investigations.
