The track titled “Nakamba” was first introduced to the world during the inaugural edition of the Marvelous Nakamba under 17 invitational tournament. Bulawayo based amapiano artist Tunis penned the song which was constantly part of the DJ’s playlist at the tournament.

According to the Matshobana born musician the song was inspired by Nakamba’s charitable work done by Nakamba and his charity foundation in assisting with school fees to over 1 000 children dotted across  the selected five of ten provinces in Zimbabwe incluiding his rural home Hwange.

“I was inspired by the work done by Nakamba both on and off the field incluiding the charitable initiatives that are being done for a number of children. I chose him through the song,” said Tunis who hopes that the song will be constant feature on some of Zimbabwe’s radio channels.
