NBM plc takes Lulu to South Africa
National Bank of Malawi (NBM)plc has flown musician Lulu to South Africa to perform at the Family Fun Day tomorrow at UJ Stadium, Johannesburg Westdene 2092.
The free event will also feature soccer, netball, kids play zone and sack and spoon races.
The Mwachenjera Dale star said in an interview yesterday that the event will give him a chance to perform before his South African fans.
He paid tribute to NBM plc for supporting him with K10 million.
“It is pleasing to see corporates such as NBM plc supporting our craft. They motivate us to keep getting better,” he said.
NBM plc marketing and corporate affairs manager Akossa Hiwa said the initiative is aimed at entertaining their diaspora customers.
She said: “The NBM plc diaspora account helps Malawians living abroad to invest back home. It was revised and reintroduced on the market in 2023.
“Therefore, we are keen on client engagement and solicit.”
Malawi High Commissioner to South Africa Stella Ndau thanked NBM plc for bringing Lulu to the event. She said the musician will help entertain Malawians as they celebrate their culture.
“It will be an unforgettable experience of fun, games and cultural connection. The talented musician will bring home our diaspora community as we celebrate our rich heritage,” said Ndau.
A Malawian resident in SA, Julius Mhango, said he is looking forward to Lulu’s performance.
“Having Lulu perform at the event is so nice. Most times, we had Malawian artists coming to perform where we can’t go with our families. But this will be different,” he said.
