        90% of them live below poverty datum line. 90% of them are unemployed because of Mugabe policies. They r marching against reason.

        Nonsense! Zimbabwe has one of the most #educated citizens on the #African stage, so maybe, the fault lies elsewhere?

        They were promised residential stands as compensation for showing support. Some r there by choice but for most its ignorance.
