By James Gwati-Last month when he was in Bulawayo, President Emmerson Mnangagwa summoned the leadership of Highlanders and today in the capital, he had a meeting with Dynamos Football club’s executives.

In the country’s political history, Dynamos represents the Shona tribe and the late President Robert Mugabe’s ZANU party while Highlanders stands for the Ndebeles and the original ZAPU which was fronted by the late Vice President Joshua Nkomo, before the 1987 unity accord.

Just like what happened during the early 1980’s Gukurahundi, whenever the two rival teams meet the match does not end in harmony as there is always violence.

To these two teams when they see each other they see a political rivalry between the Shanas and Ndebeles.
