Harare, Zimbabwe. (News of The South) -It is usually a norm that a person’s importance is only realized after death, an old saying which can be translated is shona as ´wafa wanaka’.
When Egna died in an unfortunate incident at the National Sports Stadium neither of those who squeezed in stampede rushing to get hold of chilling spots and strategic positions to have better view of Warriors encounter against Congo Brazaville had known to the knowledge of thier mind how they jeopardized the career talents of musicians in the entertainment circles.
Egna’s untimely departure came at a time when she had thrown her full support to the video production of a local Afro-Jazzy Pop star, David Hondoyedzomba.
It is in this view that Hondoyedzomba decided to dedicate his latest video ´Usandisiye’ to the late Egna whom he believes played an integral role to the successes of his music.
