SOUTH AFRICA’S DR FEZILE MKHIZE WINS MISTER SUPRANATIONAL
Dr Fezile Mkhize was crowned Mister Supranational at the finale of the pageant on Thursday 4 July, held in Nowy Sącz, Poland. He competed against 35 other contestants to bag the Mister Supranational title. Iván Álvarez Guedes from Spain handed down his crown to Mkhize.
