        The lesson for us with Zim is that just having political slogans or rhetoric, doesn’t substitute COMPETENCE.There is no substitute for it.

        This is great for Zimbabwe. I would be happy for my friend Doug Washington whom we worked together in Del Monte Kenya during those harsh days to go back to his home. Zimbabweans lets welcome back our brothers.
