Madonna recently attacked Malawi's president, Joyce Banda, and has accused the government of corruption in latest round of feud.

The '4 Minutes' hitmaker has claimed to have witnessed "the depths of corruption" in the government, after southern Africa's first female president sought to nullify an election in which she apparently faces defeat, the Guardian reported.

The American singer's school-building charity projects have led to bitter acrimony.

She said that she ios very sad to see that because of the actions of their president, Malawians will continue to suffer and she can only hope that change will come, as Malawians deserve so much better.

 

Banda has earlier declared the national poll "null and void" citing "fraudulent and rampant irregularities".
