President, Dr Lazarus Chakwera has challenged the University of Malawi (Unima) to maintain high standards as it undergoes delinking process.

Speaking at Chancellor College during the virtual graduation where only 73 with distinction attended the ceremony physically.

Chakwera said the founder of Unima, Late President Dr Hastings Kamuzu Banda had a great vision, which was to make Malawian education competitive to the world.

He said Unima was as such, founded to offer education that would capacitate graduates with knowledge that would make them outclass others even those from developed countries.

“We must at all-times strive to maintain the high standards that were set by the founding father of Unima. Even now that we are delinking, we must ensure the standards are not compromised.

“We must use education to transform this country by generating wealth, improve our health system and infrastructural development,” Chakwera said.
