Meanwhile, Zimbabwe’s own Imelda Marcos works on her “black belt” in couture shopping the world over.
Our once-beautiful land has been made into a trash heap by arrogant greed and power.

WRONG! It’s time for Zimbabweans to get off our collective butts and DO something about it.

The POWER is OURS, and doesn’t belong to a bunch of fat and jovial thugs!

Negotiations can continue until half of our children are dead and the other half totally illiterate! “Softly softly” is an utter failure.

The MDC will only be allowed to have the cabinet posts of Animal Control and Garbage Collection.
