You’re a great man and a great defensor of your people againts the creasy MUGABE and his chacals gang. In all the Zimba country you the only one who could stand up in front of that bunch of killers!

Having grown up in Bulawayo (and raised a Catholic)-not that it matters, I have experienced hideous examples of priests and examples of authority. He is not one of them. Pius Ncube stood up for my family when no one else would. When so-called Catholic schools and their institutions abused their pupils, he was the ONLY person who was prepared to take a stand against what was wrong in society. That includes Black and White. He lead a march through Bulawayo against what was wrong in our country. He is a man of courage and honour, and I admire him. Unfortunately, my mother, who received so much support from him, is deceased, so I have to thank him on her behalf and mine. Pius Ncube is a good, brave man, and we urge him on.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('275263','C.

In matters of the flesh everyone is susceptible, but in condemning autocracy, pillaging, plunder and gross abuse of human rights, Bishop Pius Ncube remains a champion.Mugabe and his cronies must be challenged and condemned for their misrule.
