Naamsa CEO Dr Mncane Mthunzi said the media award recognises and acknowledges Cokayne’s contribution to business journalism and informed reporting on automotive investment, industrial policy and the wider economy.

“The Accelerator Awards celebrate the people and organisations whose work strengthens South Africa’s automotive industry and its contribution to our economy and society,” added Mthunzi.

Cokayne has covered the SA automotive industry and other sectors for decades. He has been a contributor to Moneyweb for over seven years, and prior to that, worked for decades at Business Report.

Naamsa, at its 2022 Accelerator Awards event, jointly awarded Cokayne the Top Excellence in Journalism Award in the auto media category, together with David Furlonger from the Financial Mail.
