Harri Mbuzwana
I have an insatiable passion for all things relating to communications and media.
I have always had an excellent grasp of the English Language and an interest in learning as many languages as possible. This interest emanates from my need to communicate valuable messages across as wide an audience as possible. I absolutely love reading the news, writing, public relations, socio-economic debates and am a budding pan-Africanist.
