When the young cannot find the audacity to converge amongst themselves to create the future they desire but would rather discredit each other based on meaningless political brands and slogans you know that they are foolish in their exuberance.
When the young sing the names of their party leader but cannot sing the songs of their own emancipation and the songs of their dreams and their children’s dreams it means they are lost.
Only our young have the monopoly of the future yet they fight for old men whose time has come and gone.
Wake up young Zimbabweans from your slumber. It’s time to realise that nobody else besides yourselves will create the future your desire. That is the nature of politics and power.
Fadzayi Mahere leading by example.

What exactly has Fadzai Mahere done that the rest should try to follow? Throwing her name in the political hat to contest next year’s elections shows that she has the same gravy train ambition that has blinded the young and old alike in our country.
Of course, she is blind; why else would she want to contest elections everyone knows are flawed. She does not care that the elections have become a hell for the ordinary people who are frog marched to attend rallies and who are the victims of the corrupt and tyrannical regime that has ruled the nation denying them a free and meaningful vote. She does not care that by contesting she is helping perpetuate the oppressive system.
She has benefited from the oppressive regime and she is now seeking ways to join the ruling elite in her own right. Fadzai is no different from Grace Mugabe, one is gunning for MP the other for presidency. There is nothing in their naked greed and indifference to the suffering masses. What is there to admire in that?
