BULAWAYO, Zimbabwe – A wave of pride is sweeping from the wide, tree-lined streets of Bulawayo to the entire nation, as local model and tourism ambassador Nomqhele Sisa Nkomo prepares to carry the Zimbabwean flag onto one of the world’s most prestigious platforms.


Zimbabwe’s cultural ambassador,21-year-old Nomqhele Sisa Nkomo, is gearing up to showcase her country on the global stage at the Miss Tourism International pageant in Malaysia. She has already made a name for herself through her successful modeling career, innovative contributions to fashion, and a strong commitment to community projects.

Nkomo, who recently earned the coveted title of Miss Tourism Zimbabwe 2025, is set to represent the nation at the Miss Tourism International pageant this October in Malaysia. Her journey, however, is about far more than a crown; it’s a mission to broadcast the unique heartbeat of Zimbabwe to a global audience.

Hailing from Bulawayo, a city renowned for its rich history, vibrant arts culture, and warm hospitality, Nkomo embodies the spirit of her hometown. Often called the “City of Kings,” Bulawayo City has produced a queen of its own—one poised to become the face of Zimbabwean tourism on an international scale.

In a heartfelt announcement on social media, Nkomo shared her excitement and profound sense of duty.
“Stepping onto the global stage as your Miss Tourism Zimbabwe 2025,” she wrote.
“This October, I’ll be carrying our flag to Miss Tourism International in Malaysia. This journey isn’t mine alone — it’s for every Zimbabwean story, dream, and heartbeat.”

This sentiment of collective national pride has been echoed by her growing legion of supporters. Fans like Paraziva Mhofu have poured out congratulatory messages, emphasizing the significance of her role.
“Congratulations Nomqhele!!! What a great posting you hold!” Mhofu commented.
“Thank you for representing Zimbabwe on the global tourism platform with great pride. Many will visit our beautiful country because of the great work you’re doing!! Keep up the good work!”

This feedback underscores the core mission of Nkomo’s title: to be a catalyst for tourism. As Miss Tourism Zimbabwe, she becomes a living ambassador for the country’s breathtaking landscapes—from the majestic Victoria Falls to the ancient ruins of Great Zimbabwe, and the untamed beauty of Hwange National Park.

Her journey from a Bulawayo native to a national representative is a powerful narrative that inspires many. It’s a story that proves that from the heart of Matabeleland, dreams can indeed ascend to a global pinnacle. As she prepares for the competition in Malaysia, the entire nation rallies behind her, ready to make noise together and support one of their own as she steps into the spotlight to share the unparalleled story of Zimbabwe with the world. .
