"Putting such events together is not easy, it takes a lot of dedication, 2017 has been a rewarding experience and, seeing all the hard work delivered by the team over the last few months has been amazing," Mwanza said.
"Every campaign has its up's, downs and challenges, but what makes it worth it, is the commitment and perseverance of the team and network around you, and the amount of support received throughout. ZAA could not be possible without the dedicated local partners"
"I would also like to extend gratitude to all the sponsors who stood with us, and helped us fulfil the vision" Mwanza added
