    This guy is worse tribilist, we are shocked by his view, in which his joke seem to degrade and take [Some people]s as less educated than Shonas which indeed create division based on tribes, when this problem should be a national issue not regional considering that everything is centralised in Zimbabwe, why single out women? when failing dose not know tribe or race so as is passing. We as affected tribe are deeply hurt and want action taken, as a way of sending clear message that we are all equal, and deserve respect shown to all Zimbabweans, we have teachers spared from this attack when they are also play part, the Ministry as well because they are management, why taget girl child alone?.

    Its high time we go the Balkan way. Its true that Shonas will always think that their an extra terestial specis in Zimbabwe and we are their cows which they will have to ride and milk on a daily basis. The cartoonist represent what all Shonas would come out saying...this is a myth lying in the shonalised and politicised history and Education of Zimbabwe...[Some people] animus dominandi must fall

    I don't know why people in power always behave so stupidly.To be in power it's like somebody who keeps bottles of gas in his house.When you have got bottles of gas,you must always watch your steps.Any negligence might cost the owner his life and rest of his property.

    somehow the solution for al the marginalisation people of matebele are traped in can be reversed if ppl call for devolution. local authorities should be given full powers to plan and drive their our pace of development. tribalism should be a punishable offence. matebele people should to listening to pple who want to incubate the issue in the namd of peace n togetherness while they continue being inferiorated like in this cattoon

    its quite clear that the people of matebeleland are second class citizens. they are being oppressed and maginalized to the point that getting a teaching vacancy in thier provinces its a struggle. worse you hear people crying about low pass rate and the minuster to correct that turning a blind eye to the matter. that catoon is one of many things that have bn used to down grade people from matland. Those tweeter, check justice mayor the gokwe mp, he declares.those who can speak [Some people] chat with me. this is sad, so sad to and we wonder if do we have mps in parliament from.our region?

    [Some people]s are not corrupt look at BCC Bulawayo city council ,no demolition of houses ,no putting up of structures structures willy nilly .it is the best run urban council in Zimbabwe everything is effi iently managed .I advocate that those managing BCC should be given an opportunity to run the affairs of this and see the difference .To say we are dull is not true ,but them have graduated in corruption nothing else .its high time they reformed and took us like right thinking citizens who are right to be where we are.
