Madonna is due back in Malawi next week for what is expected to be a final court ruling on whether she can adopt a child from the African country.

A senior official at Lilongwe International Airport said her jet was cleared for landing from April 8 and she was expected around that time.

In February, Malawian Information Minister Patricia Kaliati praised Madonna's efforts to rally support for orphans in the country and said it would be wrong for the Government to deny the pop star's adoption of a child.
