“My fans should expect the best from me as usual as I promise to put up a scintillating classical performance which is of value for their money,” Mhere said.
The event coordinator, Jasper Shawarira, said all the logistics had been done and fans could expect a fun-filled show that would give a true run for their money.
“The National Arts Council of Zimbabwe has approved this show and we have already been cleared by Zimbabwe Revenue Authority and Mashaba has already been granted her work permit in preparation for the show,” he said.
