TOP 5 SIBEBE CONTESTANTS WIN E5 000 EACH

MBABANE – The Sibebe Talent Search top five finalists have been revealed. 

Since the competition commenced, local emaSwati entered with enthusiasm in their arts respect.

Last Friday morning, the organisation revealed Miyanda Mahlangu, Lil Answer Van De-Askens, Bongani Shiba, Asap-sz Thenjwayo and Luswiba STS as the finalists for the competition, which began in July. 

Voting for the top five began on September 12 and ended on September 25. 

According to the Eswatini Beverages Country Trade Marketing Manager, Phetsile Mswane, the five finalists would each receive E5 000 cash prizes to celebrate their outstanding talents as well as to boost their careers courtesy of the Sibebe Premium Lager, which would be handed to them in due course.

Mswane congratulated the finalists and further encouraged the public at large to keep their eyes glued to their pages for more information as they moved to the top two.

Search 

Voting for the top two finalists will close tomorrow.   

The brand had been looking for talented musicians, photographers, poets, actors and comedians as well as any other form of artistic talent they possessed for their search, which has been taking place online. 

“We have been looking for talented emaSwati to display their uniqueness and impress the nation to show us what they have got,” she mentioned.

To make this a fair competition, Mswane shared that it was not a competition, where they had looked for professionals. 

“With the hope that COVID-19 would eventually be a thing of the past, we will, in future host an event showcasing the different talents. It also serves to be in our interests to involve the winners of the talent search in long term plans that have been halted by the pandemic for now,” she said.

Excitement

Fans of the popular local brand expressed their excitement for the winners, who took the prizes home. 

One of the finalists, Bongani Shiba also shared on his Facebook page to express his gratitude towards all those, who voted for him and adding that he was excited to be among the finalists. 

Luswiba STS member Babutse Masuku could not believe making it to the top five finalists and further wished the other participants all the best towards the final competition. 

Refreshed

Mswane said winners of the competition would also get the opportunity to participate in the new and refreshed events that the company will host in the future. 

The brand is well known for hosting events such as the ‘Sibebe Friday Night Live’ series, which was discontinued earlier this year due to the pandemic.
