Zikomo Africa Awards are Zambian awards established in early 2021 to celebrate organisations, entertainers and other minorities in music, film, philanthropy and fashion in Zambia and other African countries.[1][2] The awards ceremony is usually hosted in the capital city of Zambia, Lusaka. They are one of the major Zambia's awards and they also promote culture as well as encourage people to showcase their talents. The awards categories are split into male and female. The awards also recognize humanitarians who are helping the needy in communities. The votes by the public and organisations are cast via their website in Zambia as well as across the African continent.[1]
Additionally, the awards honor media personalities as well as outlets, actors, movie directors, photographers, comedians, entrepreneurs, and social media influencers, among others.[3][4][5]
