Mmegi: A newspaper of innumerable awards and honours (Part 1)

Since its entry into the competitive private and independent media space 40 years ago in 1984, following its graduation from an A4 newsletter at Swaneng Secondary School, Mmegi, previously known as Mmegi wa Dikgang, has continued to attract a cohort of elite professionals across its production departments.

To date, this special class of men and women of different backgrounds and disciplines have and continue to uphold/hold high the media institution’s revered name in more ways than one can imagine. Through various forms of journalism ranging from news reporting (writing), columnists’ commentary, opinion, visual and social commentary, photography and newspaper design, the newspaper with its past and present staff, has accumulated a myriad of awards and accolades in recognition of the outstanding work produced therein.
