The winners and finalists at this year’s Zimbabwe Achievers Awards (ZAA) got a chance to toast to their success and recognition at a free paid dinner held in their honour on the 24 July 2015 at the popular Mama Jumbe’s restaurant in East London. I was invited to the event, being the assistant manager for Zimlink Media, a company that was nominated in this year category of the best media organisation.

ADA UZOIJE at the Zimbabwe Achievers Awards held in London, on the 9th of May,2015
This was the first post-awards event of its kind, and I sincerely hope it will not be the last. At the ZAA award ceremony that took place on the 9th of May, I was busy with the filming, photographs and interviews. I was sort of 100% focus on doing my job, that I missed out on most of the fun. So, it was definitely lovely to have a post-awards event, where the only things that was expected of everyone, was to ‘eat’, ‘chat’ and ‘dance’. It was a great networking opportunity for everyone that attended. The after-party heated up when, we all moved down-stair to the club hall. It was exciting and funny, seeing most of these high-calibre professionals dancing on the dance floor. I enjoyed dancing to the Afro-beats music that was played on the night.
ZAA is the number one international award ceremony for anything Zimbabweans, after an outstanding five years of its existences. And without doubt; next year’s award ceremony is going to be amazing! Unbehalf of everyone that attended the post-award dinner party, I want to extend my gratitude to the ZAA’s committees, we love our ‘Mama Jumbe’s African restaurant’ and the ‘Zimabawe Achievers Awards’. Thank you for hosting a thoughtful event !!! xxx
