Former Malawian President Dr. Bakili Muluzi has withdrawn from mediating the burial dispute of Zambia’s late Sixth President, Edgar Lungu, citing unresolved issues despite months of progress. Muluzi returned responsibility to Lungu’s family, the Zambian Government, and citizens, praising their patience and unity. He thanked President Hichilema, SADC leaders, and church representatives for supporting the process. His withdrawal ends a five-month regional diplomatic effort for closure.
