This year’s revamped ‘Swazi Rally – Vakasha Ekhaya’ event, which took place over a week ago, strengthened its relations with WFF as they partnered in the choreography of the internationally acclaimed dance routine by South African DJ Master KG featuring Nomcebo Zikode.

Paiva told this publication that the project was a first of its kind, where they were hoping it would further strengthen their relations with the Swazi Rally as an entertainment hub for bikers and all biker fans. 

“The dance routine, which was exceptionally displayed by Eswatini’s Correctional Services female warders was beyond our expectations and we trust that Eswatini was well represented and promoted through this dance,” she said.   

As soon as the dance video was shared across Swazi Rally and Rider’s Ranch social media platforms, users of Facebook, Instagram and Twitter shared it on their profiles, tagging the artists.
