Earlier last week, there were reports that villagers in Malawi were displeased with Madonna for forcing them out of their homes to build an all girl’s academy.
The head of Madonna’s charity is finally stepping forward to address the rumors, which he is calling “erroneous.”
Great word!
Phillip Van den Bosche, who runs the foundation, reminded everyone that the head of the village, whose grounds will house the $15 million school, “made a very long speech about how grateful he was for this project” at a ceremony for the school. He calls the deal more than generous and that any reports suggesting the Malawians are unhappy are “not factual.”
As long as everyone is happy and has a home, than it’s all alright by us!
