According to local reports, Mr Godfrey Kamanya shot himself around 3:30 this morning at his house in Area 10, Lilongwe after losing the Lilongwe Msodzi North Parliamentary elections this week. Kamanya’s friend told this to the press:
 “We had to break the door to his kitchen where he had locked himself up.”
The late Kamanya left behind a  suicide note, in which he reportedly said he took his life because of misunderstandings related to politics and outlined how his wealth should be distributed to beneficiaries.
May his soul rest in peace.
