Bwembya says he so humbled to learn that he has been selected for 2015 Mandela Fellowship. 

“For me, going to America will not be a 'honeymoon' but an opportunity to learn a lot of things that I will use for the betterment of Mother Zambia,” he says.

As a social, gender activist, Bwembya says he hopes to learn a lot from other young leaders.

“And as a musician, I will use President Obama's programme to network with other American and African musicians and other role models so as to tap into their experiences and skills. When I come back to Africa, it will be all about action and developmental projects,better leadership and more socially conscious music. Days of talking without action are long gone, that's why I always do what I talk about,” he says.
