        Good riddance. Homosexuality is not Zimbabwean. It's a western practice only good wen ua in those territories. Here in Zimbabwe it affects rainfall and causes drought. No to Gays until the end of time

        It was a big mistake for him making such utterances to kids. He should have kept it to himself. What was he going to lose if he had kept it to himself???

        Africans should keep the same energy when it comes to other sins like domestic violence, child abuse, sexual abuse among others

        It is so unfortunate that he has had to go for disclosing the reality that many others are doing in the dark. I pray for him

        Yes homosexual is wrong in our society as Zimboz but we put so much energy condemning it leaving those who are destroying our future through corruption. I hope we do the same to those in high offices who abuse public funds for personal gain.

        Exactly it doesn't bring cholera, corruption people concentrate on things that doesn't affect the next person . Personal desicions of sexuality are used to destruct the focus of nation being hounded by Cholera and bankruptcy
