Ndaba Nhuku | Zimbabweans must learn to think beyond our grandfathers’ zvigayo/izigayo, bottle stores and tuckshops .

Nelson Chamisa has breathed a new way of thinking and economic progress into our politics. Other nations are progressing doing what he is talking about and you are seeing it as impossible. Because you all want to own are flea markets, zvigayo, bottle stores, buses and tuckshops; none of you dreams about owning shares in some railway project or other infrastructure. None of you dreams about riding a plane from Murehwa to Harare or Hwange to Bulawayo. Our mentality is engrained in our want our fathers knew, envied and spoke about.

Many folks in Diaspora talk of business back home when only talking of having run down trucks to transport maize to GMB or abandoned combis and internet cafes. Please folks, the world is moving fast beyond that. If Ethiopia, Botswana, Namibia and other African countries that are actually poorer than Zimbabwe can plan for bullet trains etc, why can’t Zimbabwe do it? Why should we be stuck with having Matambanadzo or Siposami buses? What can stop us from having cheap flights between out cities and within the region? Only CORRUPTION, and stunted thinking that ends at the tip of our nose can stop such developments.
Yes , Chamisa brings in a new way of thinking they young people should embrace and work towards attaining for their country.
