A new year on Zambezi Magic never comes quietly. It arrives with unfinished business, emotional baggage and resolutions that could either heal old wounds or create brand-new drama. As our favourite characters reset their calendars, here’s what their New Year’s resolutions should look like, based on the storms they’re currently facing.
Phil begins the year humbled after his proposal is rejected. His girlfriend’s reason cuts deep: he’s still living at home and not financially stable. Phil’s resolution is clear: secure independence, build a career and prove he’s ready for marriage, not just romance.
Tamara enters the year standing firm. No ring, no wifey privileges. Her resolution is self-respect and boundaries, even as Shadreck continues to disappoint her. Speaking of Shadreck, his resolution should be honesty and accountability after cheating with Nuru instead of committing.
Nuru, caught between desire and dignity, is demanding to be taken seriously. Her resolution is to stop settling for secret situations and demand clarity—or walk away.
Meanwhile, Twaambo is making the biggest sacrifice of all. To raise the 2 million Kwacha needed to help Hambe, she plans to secretly sell their Nut and Jam shares—without Nguzu’s knowledge. Her resolution is save Hambe at all costs, but this choice could fracture the family.
Dimuna starts the year with a life-altering truth: Mazoka is not his biological father: Chiyumba Machila is. His resolution? Discover his true identity and decide where his loyalty lies, even if it destroys existing alliances.
Mazoka, shaken by the revelation, must resolve to let go of control and face betrayal without turning ruthless.
Nguzu needs a resolution centred on transparency and leadership, especially with business and family decisions being made behind his back.
Lillian, forever drawn to luxury and status, should resolve to choose emotional security over flashy promises.
Finally, Haanta enters the year determined to focus on purpose, music, growth and discipline, rather than distractions.
One thing is certain: on Zambezi Magic, resolutions are made to be tested and the new year promises plenty of drama ahead. 🍿✨
