The Town Clerk for City of Masvingo, Eng. Edward Mukaratirwa has been adjudged ‘Pro-Development leader of the year’ at the inaugural 2021 Masvingo Megafest Business Awards held at Great Zimbabwe Hotel in Masvingo on Friday, April 22, 2022.

The Awards were received on his behalf by the City of Masvingo Public Relations and Communications Officer and other Council Directors.

The awards ceremony organised by Megafest seeks to celebrate, appreciate and acknowledge leadership and showcase Masvingo and its business sectors to the world.

Furthermore, the Megafest Awards give widespread exposure and is a thriving platform for the business community to stay connected, relevant, ahead of the game and be verified via documentary films, awards and magazines.

The ceremony brought together the best performers from each sector acting in diverse ways to put the country on the global map for industrialisation and development.

Eng Edward Mukaratirwa expressed gratitude to God and to Council for their hard work, perseverance and commitment to success for the City of Masvingo brand.

He also expressed his appreciation to the organisers for such an event aimed at acknowledging performance in the region, who have and still contribute to development and growth of the country’s economy.

Eng. Mukaratirwa, admonished that “as individuals our visions must always be greater than ourselves; because if that is not the case, we don’t have a vision”.

According to him, “Whatever vision we have must capture the future of our local authority, of our nation, of our continent and of humanity; and if it doesn’t, then it is a very small vision.

“We need to step from our comfort zones and turn our lemons into lemonade. This is the evidence that we have done this while others lamented, complained and perhaps went to sleep. The sleepless nights, efforts, and hard work have birthed great rewards” he said.

The award is yet another one in the overflowing bag of icon on the helm of City of Masvingo.
