MultiChoice likely for their viewers in Zimbabwe if not the whole of Africa will soon announce the launch of a new entertainment channel which will feature a variety of local content in the reality, lifestyle, news, sports and drama series section with other programming such as kids shows there to assist.
Although a name hasn't been provided for the supposed channel. You can clearly see what content will be coming out of the channel as seen below so to rephrase from what I mentioned earlier in the week. This looks more like something you'd find on those community channels like Soweto TV and combine it with whatever other channel comes to mind.
Here's some of the content for the channel:
Style Street
