Peter Mutharika, Malawi

In January 2018, there were reports that a dry spell and pest infestation had begun threatening Malawi’s staple maize crop. This compelled the country’s leader, Peter Mutharika to call for a national prayer for rain. He asked cabinet ministers and government officials to lead the prayers. Many people at the time questioned this move.
