David Banda and Mercy James, the two adopted children of Madonna, both came from Malawi, one of poorest countries in Africa. To get them, the singer promised the world to the population. After two years with no word from the material girl, the Malawians are upset and demand to know what’s up.
* The first problem was the expropriation of a piece of land considered fertile by the locals in Chinkhota, where Madonna planned to build a school for girls. Well, two years have gone by and the land just sits there, no crops and no school. Now locals want it back.
* Finally, Mercy’s family is counting the days to sue Madonna. The reason? They claim that during all this time, they have never been allowed to see the girl. According to the family, little Mercy only went to an orphanage because they couldn’t afford to raise her. Her grandmother even said that the place received a lot of money to allow the singer to adopt Mercy and that’s why they want her back. What are you going to do now, Madonna?
