HARARE-based upcoming musician Gamuchirai Mutamba, who is known in music circles as Gamue the heir, says she uses her music to fight girlchild rights.
“I’m trying to be the voice of the girlchild fighting against child marriages, gender-based violence and so forth,” she told Standard Style.
“I am encouraging the girlchild not to give up on life but to step up and work hard for her better tomorrow.
“Also, my music points out that the girlchild deserves to be loved unconditionally.”
Mutamba said she faced some challenges in her career, which also inspired her to fight for the girlchild.
“The challenges I faced so far, there are many predators who come as if they want to help put you on the spotlight yet they have hidden motives,” she said.
“They make you believe that they want to help you but before you know it,you become their prey.
“This also inspired me to fight for girl rights.”
