Generations: The Legacy creator and executive producer Mfundi Vunda has been honoured with an honorary doctorate in literature by the University of Pretoria (UP) for being a titan of the SA entertainment industry.
Vundla was conferred alongside jazz legend Abdullah Ibrahim at an event that took place virtually on Monday.
Vice-chancellor and principal professor Tawana Kupe said during the graduation: The arts play a vital role in holding a mirror up to society. Mfundi Vundla and Abdullah Ibrahim have been trailblazers in their respective fields, and have told uniquely South African stories. I am pleased that we are able to bestow these honours on two giants of the arts in recognition of their service and contribution to the country and the world.”
