Maranatha for support to arts industry

Maranatha Private Academy has pledged more support towards promotion of the entertainment industry.

Kaonga: We will support these initiatives.

Managing Director for the school Ernest Kaonga made the pledge on Saturday on the sidelines of the 2023 MBC Entertainers of the Year Awards at BICC in Lilongwe, as the official sponsor of this year’s event.

The institution also supported various awards categories where it also announced honouring the 2023 MBC entertainer of entertainers, Akira with K2 million and Deus Sandram the man behind Bwande Radio Programme with K500,000.

“Those who have grown up in Malawi know pretty well how iconic is this ceremony. In those days there was no TV, we gathered around the radio. We could not sleep till we heard who was the entertainer of entertainers. That was how powerful and motivating this programme is and let me assure you MBC we will not leave you as sponsors as long as you keep coming up with initiatives that touch all of us Malawians,” said Kaonga.
