Winky D stages epic performance… registers to vote

TOP dancehall chanter, Winky D, on Saturday confirmed his superstar status when he performed before a 30 000 strong crowd at an open space in Overspill, Epworth at the International Peace Concert to encourage people to register to vote and to participate in this year’s elections peacefully.

The Gafa, as the chanter is popularly known among his hordes of fans, also took the opportunity to register to vote ahead of the defining presidential poll scheduled for later this year.

Those who attended the concert — which was organised by Heal Zimbabwe Trust (HZT), Election Resource Centre and Zimbabwe Human Rights to educate and mobilise people to register to vote — sang along as their idol chanted both old and new songs.
