The National University of Science and Technology (Nust)'s Ceremonial Hall will host the Joshua Nkomo lecture which will be sponsored by the Associated Newspapers of Zimbabwe.

"The National University of Science and Technology (NUST) journalism department in conjunction with the Daily News and the foundation of Joshua Mqabuko Nkomo Foundation (JMNF) will on Friday host it's memorial lecture series to celebrate the late Vice President's social and economic ideals," the paper said.

"The public event will be addressed by leading academics including Mandela Institute of Development Studies director Nkosana Moyo, Sabelo Gatsheni Ndlovu and Joshua Nyoni, will also the re-launch of Nkomo's book 'The Story of My Life."

The NUST journalism department mooted the idea of hosting annual lectures of Joshua Nkomo legacy in 2003 but the lectures were put on hold in some years due to lack of funding until this year when the ANZ jumped in to sponsor the lecture.

"With the help of the ANZ, the Daily News came in as a sponsor," the paper said.

"The lecture series would not be a political event but a platform for robust and intellectual exchange of ideas on the economic, political, social and technological principles."

The Daily News is currently serializing Nkomo's "The Story of My Life" in the paper.
