Lilongwe September Mana: The Miss Malawi Pageantry slated for December 2022 is well under way with organisers, Alpha Arts, at the helm of all preparations, having concluded pageant auditions across the three regions of the country.

In an interview with Malawi News Agency (MANA) Publicist for Alpha Arts, Tina Kendricks said that the auditions were successful and soon enough the short list of ladies to compete in December will be released.
