Following comments by music fans and critics that Leonard Zhakata won Radio Zimbabwe’s Coca Cola Top 50 after Emmanuel Makandiwa directed members of his United Family International Church (UFIC) to vote for the music star.
Speaking to Daily News, Zhakata said:
I know people are talking a lot, some saying the victory is a result of prophet Makandiwa’s miracles while others have attributed the success to UFIC congregants but little did they know that …Makandiwa last spoke about my career in church way back in 2011 before I even released Gotwe…he is too busy to talk of artistes’ work in church.
Zhakata, who walked away with $2 500 for claiming top position on the Coca-Cola music chart, $2 000 for earning second position and $1 500 for also getting position number three, said fellow UFIC members were equally baffled by the manner he made a clean sweep of the entire purse of the 2016 Radio Zimbabwe Coca-Cola Top 50.
