He said: “Although there is still acute shortage of mattresses and beds, we feel we have addressed the need partly.

“However, we have learned that the school needs at least two classroom blocks to accommodate Form One students.”

Wachepa commended the head teacher for the school’s improved selection to public universities in the past two years.

Mulanje Secondary School head teacher Wilfred Nyapwala commended the former students for their gesture.

Some of the notable people who learned at the institution include former Cabinet minister Ken Lipenga, retired  Malawi Defence Force commander general Griffin Supuni  Phiri, Professor Frank Taulo, Minister of Tourism, Wildlife and Culture Michael Usi, High Court Judge Mandala Mambulasa, former diplomat Chimango Chirwa and Nation Publications Limited deputy chief executive officer Alfred Ntonga.
