A military aircraft carrying Malawi’s vice president Saulos Chilima has been reported missing after it failed to make a landing yesterday morning.

The Malawi government said in a statement that all efforts by aviation authorities to make contact with the aircraft, carrying 51-year-old Chilima and nine others, since it went off the radar have failed thus far.

President Lazarus Chakwera, who was due to travel to the Bahamas for a working visit, but promptly cancelled the trip, has ordered regional and national forces to conduct an “immediate search and rescue operation to locate the whereabouts of the aircraft”.
