Central Bank Chief and his name is Mr Charles Tchuka. Mr. Charles Tchuka has been
hired by the Her Excellency the President, Mrs Joyce Banda after firing Dr.
Perks Ligoya. Dr Ligoya was appointed by the late President Muthalika and has been the Central Bank Chief for only two years. However

Glasgow joined the Central Bank in 1979 after graduating from the University of
