“The dates for Gwanda Gospel festival are October 5-7 and this year we have quite a youthful line up with more local artists, this is a way of empowering young Zimbabwean artists.

“As a way of empowering young people in Zimbabwe, we have also roped in three youthful groups – Hybrid Psalmz from Gwanda and Vocal Ex, co-founded by Eric Moyo of Joyous Celebration.

“For Iscathamiya fans, we have Indosakusa, who recently released their 13-track album. Such is the diversity of this year’s festival,” Maphosa said.

Maphosa said the festival was an altar where sacrifice of praise was given to the living God.

“Our theme this year is quite foretelling especially as we work towards rebuilding the economy of our beautiful nation, Zimbabwe.

“We believe walls of limitation that have kept the people of Zimbabwe stagnant are all tumbling as we lift our praise to the Mighty Man of War – Jehovah.”
