AfriWetu: S5Ep7 - Rozvi Empire Pt3 (Civilisations)
Mhoroi Afri-WATU!
It's the final episode of the Rozvi Empire, what a journey it has been right!
To this date this influence is felt across southern Africa and they hold a special place in modern Zimbabwe. Their exploits and reach were a testament to their military and diplomatic prowess.
It's always the hope that this makes you want to dig deeper into your own ancestor stories and give us a nudge if you want AfriWetu to look deeper into your own civilisations/kingdoms/empires....
As usual a huge thank you to Big City Studios, for not just the excellent sound-scaping and production, but also...turning this episode around in record time!
Until next time
Mubarikiwe!

AfriWetu: S5Ep6 - Rozvi Empire Pt2 (Civilisations)
Mangwanani akanaka Afri-WATU!
It's been a while right! Well it sure seems so!
Have no fear... we are back with Part TWO of this riveting Empire is here, the Rozvi ancestors have returned!
There is really so much I could say about them here, but why not just let you hear more about this Empire yourself as you tune in for this episode.
As always, the brilliance of Lee Kanyottu in making this episode sound good and immerse you in the past! Now just sit back...and enjoy the journey!
Until next time,
Mubarikiwe!

AfriWetu: S5Ep5 - Rozvi Empire Pt1 (Civilisations)
Kwaziwa AfriWetu!
Welcome to a brand new African Civilisation! The mighty ROZVI Empire! From the southern part of our continent and they were awesome!
It was such a joy to meet these ancestors to learn more and dig deeper into their story. Each layer was more fascinating than the last and still so much more to uncover.
Thank you to Big City Studios for the ace production as always making me sound good!
Sit back and enjoy!
Until next time
Mubarikiwe!

AfriWetu: S5Ep3 - Dihya Al Kahina (Legend)
AFRI-WATU! SBAH LKHIR!
How excited are we to introduce you to this Legend from the North! She is epic and of course we needed an epic voice to narrate the story, so tune in to hear the dulcet tones of Nyaguthii who so graciously agreed to tell this tale.
I urge you all to uncover more about this legend as we wind up the AfriWetu celebration of women this International Women's month! She was a queen, a warrior, a mother and force - Dihya Al Kahina was a legend who inspires many women across not just North Africa but the rest of the continent.
As usual I want to thank Lee Kanyottu for doing his magic and making us both sound so good!
Until next time
Mubarikiwe!

It's a longer episode as it holds over till the concluding part, Part 3, as we shall have an interluding episode specially curated for the season to celebrate IWD :)
For now, sit back and enjoy the show, thank you to Big City Studios who as usual delivered on excellent production standards.
