Zikhona Sodlaka Honored At The Icons of Africa Awards
Zikhona Sodlaka Honored At The Icons of Africa Awards. The Icons of Africa Awards were held at Sandton Hotel on 30 May 2026, where a number of stars were honored. Among those was Zikhona Sodlaka, a massively talented actress.
Zikhona was awarded the Outstanding Actress Award at the Icons of Africa Awrds 2026. The awards honor outstanding leaders, visionaries, changemakers, and trailblazers from across the continent. Each category reflects a critical pillar of Africa’s growth story, a deliberate acknowledgment that the continent’s progress is driven not by a single narrative, but by a collective force of innovators, leaders, and cultural architects.
Gushing over her win, Zikhona is proud of what she continues to achieve in the industry. Her work definitely speaks for itself, and the awards are testimony of that. The multi-award winning actress also congratulated all the winners of the night.
“Icons of Africa awards. Outstanding Actress Award.
“Surely Goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life.”
Head down, planting seeds that create trees we will sit under….in our lifetime. Denting history with the work my lane continues to produce.
It’s always been the United States of Africa to most of us…and on this night excellence knew no borders.
Congratulations to everyone honoured on this night.
Ukwanda kwaliwa ngum thakathi.
Camagu Otherwise 🕯️✨🦍,” Zikhona said in gratitude.
Zikhona is one of the actresses who deserves all the recognition. With over two decades in the industry, she has managed to stay relevant, and show versatility in all the different characters she has played. Her first lead role was Zukiswa for the fourth and final season of Tsha Tsha. From then on, it was lead role after lead role for her.
