Poetry, Moyonda�s daily bread

Moyonda, as she prefers to be called, said she developed the love for poetry at a young age. She started performing at the national stage in 2008 after she gained exposure during the presidential art competitions.

“I developed interest in poetry when I was still at primary school back in the 1990’s. I was initially a church choir member and I have always been a very talkative person. I started realising that I have potential for poetry as a result I tried it and my teachers told me I was very good at poetry. That gave me the motivation to continue competing in competitions until I grew up in this industry,” she said.
