We are celebrating the winning of Soweto TV producer and content creator, Mpumi Manyisi for being the sports journalist of the year, as she was awarded by Johannesburg Women in Sports Awards.

 

The award-winning sports journalist and content producer has paved a way for other women in the industry. Mpumi’s hard work has proved to us that even in a male dominated space, as a woman you can bloom. She is a definition of black girl magic and black excellence. She has changed the narrative and showed us that nothing is unattainable.

 

Since her arrival in 2016, Manyisi has played a huge role and has created content for one of the best shows we have produced as Soweto TV. From Your Late mate with Nimrod Nkosi, to Dipapadi Sports Show on Soweto TV. We could not be more proud and grateful to witness such greatness. She has shared her passion and heart with us, and we appreciate her.

 

“As Soweto TV, we are proud of Mpumi. She has not only achieved success in her field but has inspired others to fight for excellence. We admire her for her enormous and powerful impact. She is indeed extraordinary, and her hard work is recognized. We want every young woman to take from Mpumi that they should not limit themselves but allow themselves to bold and strong. Above all, to be themselves all the time.”- says Thabo ‘T-Bo Touch’ Molefe, Channel Executive Officer of SOWETO TV.
