Mureyi gets top reading prize

UNITED Kingdom-based Dudzai Mureyi has struck gold after scooping first prize at the Kimathi Kuenyehia Foundation — MiLEAD Reading 2017 Competition which commenced last October.

The annual reading challenge, held in collaboration with Moremi Initiative for Women’s Leadership in Africa, is open to the network of MiLEAD Fellows comprising over 240 exceptional young women leaders from 46 African countries and the diaspora.

Mureyi shrugged off competition from 16 fellows from 13 different countries, while Bagayana Sheillah Mutetire of Uganda came second and Grace Ineza of Rwanda took third price.
