Botswana Musicians Union (BOMU) takes this opportunity to announce the Appointment of Total Music Group (Pty) Ltd as the BOMU Music Awards Consulting Firm. BOMU has appointed Total Music Group to organise, market, coordinate and manage the most prestigious and outmost citizen, yet global inclusive music awards of the Republic of Botswana.
Total Music Group (Pty) Ltd is a company founded and led by Mr. Seabelo Modibe, a reputable music industry entrepreneur who is a practitioner of the music industry from the developmental, sustainable and the commercial stage. BOMU also engages him from a pure level of the Creative Industry Community Development stage process; which so often is lacking where we are as a nation often in need of the most attention, yet in neglects to attain its ultimate commerce.
GRATEFUL: Lesokwane
275 artists to get monthly food hampers until February · Half a million splashed out on the initiative
After a slight delay, an initiative initiated by the Botswana Musicians Union (BOMU) with the help of the Indian community and Choppies, has finally been rolled out.
For 275 local artists, it means festive will take on a slightly sweeter taste as they receive P600 food vouchers for the next three months.
The vouchers are valid for all Choppies stores in the country.
Speaking at the handover ceremony last Tuesday, the Indian Business Community Chairperson, Gaurang Dalia explained the scheme was the society’s way of assisting the only industry which remains shutdown since Covid-19 struck.
