The winners in both the men’s and women’s categories will drive away a brand new Subaru.
Reigning Men’s champion Mansoor Bwanika is optimistic he can retain the title he won last year.
“I won the title last year and I hope I can clinch it again this year. This year I believe I am more focused and better than I was last year, so I am ready to defend the title.” Said Bwanika
