Gospel Wagon is inviting all churches to register their praise worship choirs ahead of the Praise and Worship BW 2016 competition in April 29. The winning praise and worship team will win P100,000 and a recording deal. The legendary Tshepo Lesole will be the main judge of the night while Vee will be the host.

The project manager, Gugu Mavuma, told Showbiz the reason for all this is that gospel artists in Botswana have been neglected. “These artists struggle a lot because they are not given the same opportunities as others,” he said.

“It is going to be one of the biggest concerts in our country and it will also be a competition that will give back to churches,” he said. Mavuma said churches are not united despite serving the same God. He said the event will bring together all churches and at the same time uplift the praise and worship teams.
