We are on a mission in Africa, meeting progressive forces on the continent. Zimbabwe is not the only part of Africa that is in distress, there are several other areas that need attention. I spoke to the former Nigerian president on the challenges that we have and the role that he can play

Zimbabwe has problems that have to be resolved by dialogue. We can’t think of Zimbabwe without thinking of Africa, or think of Africa without thinking of Zimbabwe. Our fate and fortune are entwined with Africa and a new Zimbabwe is not possible without a new Africa or vice versa, that is our message

President Mnangagwa has said Chamisa should join POLAD if he wants to dialogue with the President.
