Sona Solar Zimbabwe extends its heartfelt congratulations to our former brand ambassador, Comic Elder, on receiving a National Youth Award and a brand-new double cab from His Excellency, President Emmerson Mnangagwa.

An Audacious Request, A Grand Reward

Laughter in the Auditorium

At the closing ceremony of the National Youth Symposium, after receiving the Best in Comedy Award, Comic Elder seized the moment with his signature wit. He audaciously asked the President for his home address, joking, "Because if you fail to give me the gift you promised, I will come to your house myself to collect it!" The remark sent the entire auditorium, including the President, into fits of laughter.

A Gift Worthy of a Star

The President, who had earlier praised the comedian's intellect by saying, “Mumusoro makazara zvinhu umu” (“This head is full of many things”), called him back to the stage. In a grand surprise, he gifted Comic Elder a brand-new double cab vehicle, valued at approximately US$45,000, to thunderous applause and a standing ovation.

The Rise of Comic Elder

From "Ghetto Culture" to National Stage

Comic Elder, whose real name is Leroy Tadiwanashe Zawari, captivated audiences with his sharp wit and relatable content. Drawing inspiration from his upbringing in "ghetto culture," his breakout skit, "Takutongo Risker," shot him to national recognition. He quickly became known not just for his humor but for his positive influence.

Comedy with a Conscience

This presidential honor is well-deserved, as it recognizes more than just comedic talent. It celebrates his role as a social advocate who uses his platform to speak out against substance abuse and inspire young people to pursue their dreams. It is this commitment to positive change that makes him a true role model.

Our Shared Journey: A Partnership for a Brighter Zimbabwe

Illuminating with Laughter and Light

We at Sona Solar Zimbabwe recognized Comic Elder's unique voice and commitment to uplifting communities early on. During his time as our Brand Ambassador, he was instrumental in our "Nyaya Yanetsa" campaign, helping us demystify solar energy. His ability to connect with everyday Zimbabweans and his positive message of aspiration aligned perfectly with our own mission to empower households with reliable, clean power.

We are immensely proud to have been a part of his professional journey and celebrate his continued success as a testament to the power of hard work and positive influence.
