Church service ended prematurely on Saturday following a fight that erupted among members and Ministers at Seventh Day Adventist (SDA) Church in Nyambadwe, Blantyre.

Information sourced by Faceofmalawi reporter indicates that the church called for election of new office bearers but the outcome of the polls did not please some members and Ministers at the church who lost the election.
