The Catholic University of Malawi (CU) has distanced itself from a scandal involving Thomas and his girlfriend Lonje following a recent audio leak.

CU claims that Lonje is a student with the University but not her boyfriend who the institution revealed to have turned his application down.

However, CU, an institution of higher learning, claims to have established that the audio was made before she was accepted at CU.

In the audio which trended on Twitter, Facebook, and WhatsApp, Lonje is heard boasting of her first s*xual encounter with Thomas. Her account of events is vivid.

The university did not stipulate how it carried out its investigation.

“Investigation reveals that the boy and girl who are in a picture circulating on social media both applied at our university and only the girl made it to our university and that time they were in a relationship. The controversial audio clip that is enjoying social media stunt was produced when these two were secondary school leavers” CU posted on Twitter.

It is however not known what prompted the University to issue the clarification through the now-deleted tweet.
