The president of Malawi was, on 17 March 2013, in Scotland for celebrations to mark 200 years since the birth of Scottish missionary Dr. David Livingstone.
Dr. Joyce Banda visited the David Livingstone Centre in Blantyre before attending a church service with First Minister Alex Salmond.
But this is her first trip as president of the African country that has so many Livingstone connections.
Dr Banda paid tribute to the Scottish missionary who helped to fight slavery in Malawi and other African countries.
Dr Livingstone who spent 30 years in Africa was born on 19 March 1813.
