Presidential Advisor Dr Paul Tungwarara splashed a whooping US$200,000 on adverts for his Prevail Group companies all going to The Scottland Magazine Show
The sponsorship covering both the print edition and the hot podcast version is one of the biggest single ad deals in local media so far this year.
“I saw my brother Sir Wicknell Chivhayo showing love to the show, and I said, ‘Let me step in too!’
“So all Prevail companies will advertise with The Scottland Magazine Show for a full year,” Dr Tungwarara said.
He made it clear there is no bad blood between him and Hon Scott Sakupwanya, saying the two are all about collaboration, not competition.
“We don’t compete, we complement each other,” he said with a smile.
Dr Tungwarara even dropped a bombshell for football fans free rides to Rufaro Stadium next season through Tap and Go whenever Scottland FC plays at home!
“We want to be part of the football revolution that Hon Scott started,” he said.
And of course, he didn’t forget to celebrate Scottland FC’s Premier League championship victory.
“Congratulations to Hon Scott and the whole Scottland family.
“You have brought life back to Zimbabwean football” he said.
He also praised the show’s Executive Producer Tapiwa Letmore Mbidzo for keeping the production “world-class and vibrant”.
Comedian Comic Elder kept the crowd laughing, while Scottland FC CEO Ronald shared how the club fought hard for their title.
Dr Tungwarara ended with a call to fight drug abuse, urging more corporates to support youth programmes through sport.
“Football can change lives. Let’s stand together for our youth,” he said.
