Ncube Awarded for Press Freedom Contribution

The Zimbabwean chapter of the Media Institute of Southern Africa (MISA) has recognised Mail & Guardian owner, Trevor Ncube, for his contribution to press freedom in Zimbabwe.

MISA Zimbabwe’s senior programmes officer, Nyasha Nyahuku, says that the organisation presented Ncube with the award for his role in providing Zimbabweans with alternative platforms for critical, alternative views on social, economic and political issues.

“Since 2003, [Ncube’s company] Alpha Media Holding has played a critical role in filling the void created by the closing of the Daily News in ensuring that Zimbabweans have access to critical information and access to alternative views,” explains Nyahuku.
