        The change from Mugabe to Emerson Mnangagwa is like changing from drinking cocacola to Pepsi and then you claim to have stopped drinking soda.

        Why would anyone want to come and invest in Zimbabwe if he's not condemning his lawless youth?

        Some say politics is a dirty game... I see it as a silent war... One thing ironic about that is Ed is on the top if the food chain and the perpetrators are at the bottom end of the chain.. How do they link up...
