The wait is finally over! Diamond TV Zambia has officially dropped the full list of nominees for the 2024 Personality of the Year Awards (POTYAs) – and as expected, it’s packed with big names, heavy hitters, and rising stars shaking up the game.
The POTYAs aren’t just about fame – they celebrate influence, impact, and the people actually making moves both offline and on social media. From music, sports, fashion, business, and entertainment, this year’s list proves that Zambians are putting in serious work across all sectors.
On the music side, it’s a tight race with Yo Maps, Chile One, Chef 187, Jemax and Drimz Mr. Muziq all battling for Best Male Act. Meanwhile, the queens are not backing down either with Xaven, Towela Kaira, Esther Chungu and Christine going head-to-head.
In sports, it’s Zambia vs Zambia as global stars like Barbra Banda, Racheal Kundananji, Patson Daka and Fashion Sakala compete for top honors after flying the Zambian flag high internationally.
Social media is also on fire this year with big personalities like Mwizukanji, Chellah Tukuta and Ndine Emma dominating nominations, showing just how powerful online influence has become.
And when it comes to hit songs, it’s a full-on war! Bangers like “Confirmation,” “Ichibyongo,” and “Single” are all in the race for Song of the Year – meaning fans will have a tough time choosing their favorite.
From DJs, comedians, influencers, to corporate brands like ABSA and MTN, the POTYAs continue to shine a spotlight on those pushing Zambia forward.
Now the big question is… who are YOU voting for?
