Many people came to Nkhata Bay on Saturday, where they buried human rights hero Ben Longwe in his village. The crowd packed the area as they said goodbye to this famous activist. Northern Region UTM Vice President Catherine Mzumala joined everyone at the ceremony. She told the crowd how much Malawi would miss Longwe and his important work.

Mzumala shared her shock about his death during her speech. She praised him as someone who never backed down when fighting for regular citizens. She said his brave efforts helped many people across the country. His passing happened Thursday morning at a hospital located in Thyolo District, where doctors had tried to save him.

The funeral drew large groups of fellow activists, politicians, and neighbors who talked about his amazing life. They remembered how he stood up for people without power and pushed for everyone to be treated fairly. He never gave up, even when facing tough challenges from those who disagreed with him. His strong beliefs made him a hero to many Malawians.

Family members cried as they put his body in the ground during the burial. His friends promised they would keep doing the work he started. They want his push for human dignity and fairness to live on after his death. Longwe leaves behind a wife and three children who must carry on without him.
