ALL roads will on Friday lead to the National Sports Stadium in Harare for the Anti-Sanctions Gala where a number of local musicians will sing against illegal sanctions imposed on Zimbabwe by the West.


People from across the country will march against the illegal sanctions, with the rest of Sadc countries having committed to the same cause.


Dubbed the Anti-Sanctions Gala, the event will see local artistes drawn from all the country’s provinces taking to the stage from 6pm until the following morning.
