From the news site, Ananova......

''Malawi's parliament has voted to ban Big Brother Africa from its public airwaves. Taylor Nothale, chairman of the Parliament's media committee, said he'd received many complaints from people about the show.....

"People are subjected to horrible pictures, which are corrupting the morals of our children," said Nothale........."We want the government to stop that nonsense on TV," said opposition leader Gwanda Chakuamba. Benson Tembo, director general of the public broadcaster, said he would abide by the vote.

Malawi's representative in the Big Brother House, Zein Dudah, was voted off the show about a month ago......''

From Reuters, news that ''Malawi's High Court has quashed a parliamentary ban on "Big Brother Africa", a racy reality show that has raised eyebrows across the continent.''

But TV chiefs have not yet decided whether or not to start broadcasting Big Brother Africa again !
