MBC HONOURS CHUNGA FOR INITIATING ENTERTAINERS OF THE YEAR PROGRAMME

Malawi Broadcasting Corporation (MBC) has honoured former employee Pearson Chunga for initiating the Entertainer of the Year Awards Programme.

Chunga now aged 76, produced the first Entertainers of The Year Programme in 1975.

Meanwhile MBC Director General, George Kasakula, has since given a complimentary ticket to Chunga, besides scheduling his significant presence at the 2023 Entertainers of the Year Award Ceremony in Lilongwe on 30 December.

“Many people know Pearson Chunga as a
versatile football commentator, but the nation should know that the Entertainers of the Year Awards Programme is his brainchild. It is
necessary for the country to honour creative people like Mr. Chunga while they are still alive. The complimentary ticket will go to Mrs
Chunga because Mr. Chunga has been invited to the event already, ” said Kasakula at MBC Kwacha Studios where he presented the ticket.

In his remarks, Chunga said the importance of the Entertainers of the Year Awards Programme cannot be overemphasized as far as inspiring talent in Malawi is concerned.

“When I began this programme, I never knew it would reach this far. I feel honoured,” he said.

The Entertainers of the Year Awards Programme has bounced back this year after years of silence.
