ZIMBABWE is a very peaceful country with hospitable people who are humble and receptive, contrary to what the western media has been peddling to the world. This was said by Miss DRC, Diane Mizumi, at Herentals College talent show held at Stodart grounds in Mbare last Friday.

She said she was surprised to see hospitals and schools with healthy people, which contradicted what she had read in the Press before her trip to Zimbabwe.

“The international media reports on Zimbabwe differ from what I am seeing on the ground.

“They portray the country as manifested with diseases and hunger and I expected to see people dying of cholera with no schools and hospitals open but it is the
opposite of what I am seeing,” she said.

She said her first-hand experiences will help her market the country as a safe tourism destination.

Speaking on the talent show, Mizumi said there were a number of potential candidates who could scale to greater heights judging from the pool of contestants
who took part in the talent show.

“There are many potential contestants who can make it in the modelling and arts industry and I have seen many beautiful and handsome youths at this show,” she
said.

Miss DRC said the young lads needed to be supported to boost their confidence, as the modelling industry had lately become lucrative.

Mizumi was in the country at the invitation of her Zimbabwean counterpart, Miss Tourism Zimbabwe, Vanessa Sibanda, to witness the Sanganai/Shanganani Tourism Expo. TH.
