How many men have done worse things than that and still being appointed to decision making positions. Why can’t we say men have failed Zimbabwe because of Robert Mugabe?
We want our children to live in a free Zimbabwe and a free Zimbabwe is a Zimbabwe where women and men are treated equally.

That there was an outcry about Ndebele should not be used to belittle the importance of women. The most important tenet about democarcy is being able to take care of the marginalised and women have remained seriously marginalesd in political spaces that they deserve to be recognised not tomorrow or next year but tody. Going by their numbers in Zimbabwe women should actually occupy more seats in cabinet than men. I thought the MDC will be different from ZANU PF but actually it looks like politicians are all the same they need women to do the campaigning and the voting but when it comes to sharing the cake they are forgotten about.

Also do you still remember the issue o Sekesai Makwavarara?. Let us not cross the river before we reach there.

Are you power hungry or you want you children to live in a free a fair Zimbabwe. Look, you are already being used. Why do you go public if you are a real support or if you really suffered
