Creating a new narrative.
Key points:
1. Zimbabwe belongs to all who live in it or were born in it.
2. We have all the skills and resources required to build a formidable inclusive prosperous economy
3. We must learn to be proud of our selves and our country. No space for negativity low self esteem or abuse.
4. We must continually challenge the status quo that is how we grow and develop.
5. We Zimbabweans are responsible for our fate. We must never blame others or play victims of circumstances.
6. It is a lie that only those who participated in the armed struggle have the sole right to lead the nation.
7. Zimbabweans in the Diaspora are our future competitive advantage and legitimate citizens entitled to same rights and benefits as those at home.
8. We must heal citizens and address all attrocitues of the past.
9. Everyone has something to contribute regardless of race gender religion etc. Politicians do not have all the answers.
10. Zimbabwe can rise again from the ashes but only through taking reponsibility and collective united action.

I’m glad I catch you before you publish your book, Vince, because have you dealt with two vital points which virtually everyone fails to cover? If not, it will just end up like so many other books and articles – wishful thinking.
First, are you promoting Agenda 2063 which the AU has asked all politicians and political parties to make the basis of their manifestos? This is by far the best development plan for every nation, and will far surpass your target of 7% growth p.a.
Second, have you covered the only solution to Africa’s repressive governments, and to taking all citizens from poverty to affluence as fast as possible? Because I suspect you have not, as no one else has. Which is why Africans have scarcely progressed since the end of colonialism, and why Mugabe
is still in power.
