Malawi has been ranked among the top ten African countries performing well in governance, according to a recent Governance Assessment study.
One of the experts who conducted this year’s assessment, Adenkunle Agbetiloye, said Malawi is placed at number eight among African nations demonstrating strong leadership and governance standards.
Agbetiloye noted that while democratic governance continues to improve across Africa, persistent challenges such as corruption, bribery and disregard for the rule of law remain widespread across the continent.
Commenting on the findings, political and governance analyst George Chaima said the ranking reflects progress made under the administration of former president Peter Mutharika.
However, Chaima emphasized that although the ranking is encouraging, Malawi must continue strengthening accountability institutions and intensifying the fight against corruption to sustain democratic gains.
The Governance Assessment measures countries’ performance in leadership, transparency, accountability and adherence to democratic principles ac
ross Africa.
