He added that he is set to be given a new role at the State House.
“It has been a great honor to serve in this office. The president is keen on having me serving in another capacity,” said Kampondeni.
Kampondeni, who is married to Chakwera’s daughter Tapiwa, was appointed as State House Director of Communications and the president’s Executive Assistant in 2020, weeks after Chakwera was elected president of Malawi.
Kampondeni also worked with Chakwera during the president’s time as an opposition politician and during the campaign period for the presidential election.
However, the appointment of Kampondeni in 2020 was condemned by some quarters who accused Chakwera of nepotism.
