Malawi Court Says ‘No’ To Madonna’s Adoption

How unfortunate. Maybe what Madonna wants, she doesn’t always get. In an attempt to adopt a motherless litle girl who lives in an orphanage in Malawi, a local judge basically hammered down his shizz and said Hell to the NO today.
Zione Ntaba, a spokesperson for the Malawi Justice Department said:
“The decision came down to residency requirement and the fact that the judge believes she was being well taken care of in the orphanage. For the Malawians, the fact that the child is at an orphanage, is being taken care of and is going through the school education system, that does qualify as the best interests of a child.”
Odd since Madonna was able to get David Banda without having residency last time around. They made an exception for her then, but why not now? It’s unclear as to why the judge ruled differently, but another judge had handled Madonna’s prior adoption case.
And riddle me this, but a kid would be provided for better in an orphanage than in a huge ass mansion, with siblings, a mother, and a shit load of money? Sans flies buzzing around its head? Madonna has the opportunity to appeal today’s ruling to Malawi’s Supreme Court if she decides to. Listen, I love to poke fun at Madge, but in the end this BIA is going to be able to provide for any kid more than an orphanage can.
