Hope these people don't get whacked by Mugabe. http://www.newsweek.com/build-zimbabwe-alliance-noah-manyika-zimbabwe-elections-2018-571526?rx=usThe leader of one of Zimbabwe’s newest political parties, Noah Manyika, only moved back to the country of his birth in January after an absence of more than two decades.
But according to the founder of Build Zimbabwe Alliance (BZA), he has keenly felt the struggles of his motherland, which has suffered economic mismanagement, human rights abuses and civil unrest in more than 30 years of rule by President Robert Mugabe.
“You are a Zimbabwean wherever you are,” Manyika, 54, tells Newsweek during a trip to the U.K aimed at raising support among the estimated 110,000 Zimbabweans living there. “Ours is shared pain. The Zimbabwean who has been living outside the country has paid the price—right now, we are the pension system for our families, we are the medical aid system for our families… We are all bearing the cost of the dysfunction in our country.”

Knowing the 'true' intentions of the upstarts would be interesting too.

Most certainly can be worse, it worries me as to what will happen after Mugabe is gone. With a great amount of luck it will be a decent human being, but I am betting things will become worse after Mugabe's death.
