Phumudzo wins two awards at one go
The Pan South African Language Board (PanSALB) Multilingualism Awards historic occasion on Thursday, 29 February 2024 at Durban ICC was lit. For our efforts to uphold, promote and preserve the Tshivenda language in the media space, Ngoho Newspaper Limpopo walked away in style after bagging two gongs in the community media category including News Reporting and Print Publication awards.
Last Thursday, on 29 February during Language Activism Month we held the Multilingualism Awards to honour individuals who support the use of mother tongue and promote multilingualism.
