The father of David Banda, the much reported Malawian boy adopted by Madonna last year, is apparently seeking an update on how his son is doing in his new home, or at least that's what the Malawi newspaper the Daily Times reports, though I get the impression Yohane Banda was responding to specific questions made by the paper when he made his latest comments, rather than proactively using the media to complain about the lack of information he is receiving.
Banda told the paper: "All I want is to find out how my son is but I don't know how I can do it. I don't have her phone and mailing addresses. I only talked to her once at the High Court and I want to talk to her now and find out about my child". However, he again stressed that he remains supportive of the adoption, and that he did not support those Malawian human rights groups calling on the courts to overrule it, adding: "All I want is to find out how my child is doing and not to have him back".
As previously reported, human rights groups in Malawi claim that proper procedures were not adhered to in Madonna's adoption of David Banda and that the courts should step in.
