Malawi President Lazarus Chakwera has commended African Methodist Episcopal Church for being among the crucial part of the struggle which Malawians are enjoying today.
Chakwera said this at a centenary celebration ceremony which took place at Hannock Msokera Primary School Ground in Kasungu.
The president hailed the church for the role the church played during the Tropical Cyclone Freddy whereby the church built 21 houses. Allen formed the church by gathering together five African American congregations of the previously established Methodist Episcopal Church with the hope of escaping the discrimination that was commonplace in society, including churches.
It is also believed that African Methodist Episcopal Church through Reverend Msokera also contributed to the education of Malawi's first President Dr Hastings Kamuzu Banda.
