First Lady dazzles at State House, tradition meets runway flair

Zimbabwe's first lady threw a massive dinner party at State House to thank everyone who helps fund her charity work across the country. Auxillia Mnangagwa hosted the African-themed event with her husband, President Mnangagwa, watching, and guests showed up wearing traditional Zimbabwean fabrics mixed with 1960s-style outfits. Local designers put on a fashion show with national fabric creations, and everyone ate traditional food while drinking homemade Seven-Days brew that older women prepared.

The first lady thanked her husband for letting her travel around helping vulnerable people like orphans, widows, and former sex workers through the Angel of Hope Foundation. Speaker of Parliament Jacob Mudenda praised the president for being supportive and letting his wife do her thing. Tourism Minister Barbara Rwodzi mentioned that Auxillia got named Mother Africa and Queen of African Gastronomy by United Nations tourism officials after her cultural preservation work with the Nhanga program earned recognition from UNESCO.
