adminThe Traffic Safety Council of Zimbabwe funded the projects while Transport Communications, Infrastructural Development Minister Nicholas Goche was the guest of honour.
Mai Charamba, who is one of the traffic safety ambassadors, said in as much as the Charambas would love to perform in most rural communities, they could only do so upon invitation.
She added that at the moment the Charambas had a tight schedule since Pastor Charamba was sitting for his final examinations for a music degree programme he is pursuing at the Zimbabwe College of Music in Harare.
“We are ready to travel to the farthest corner of the country to play before our fans as long as we are invited. At the moment Pastor (Charamba) is writing his final examinations. He is finishing at the end of this month. We were supposed to be here (at Makuti) together but he could not make it.
“Unless we are holding crusades during the course of our pastoral duties, we can only have shows upon invitation. We don’t care about the nature of the audience. We sing to drinkers and non-drinkers alike. Zvidhakwa zvizhinji zvinototya Mwari, for they know God is the source of salvation,” she said.
Amai Charamba, who is also a pastor, said it will be after Pastor Charamba has finished his examinations that the couple would start serious work on piecing together their upcoming album which at the moment has no name.
At Makuti, Mai Charamba had time to mingle with inmates from Karoi Prison — who were providing entertainment — before distributing several copies of the Charambas’ DVD — “Musatyaire Makadhakwa” (Don’t Drink and Drive).
Soccer legend David Mandigora — another traffic safety ambassador – also attended the event.
