Thomas Jacob Hilfiger, an American fashion designer and the founder of Tommy Hilfiger Corporation, one of the world’s leading designer lifestyle brands, was recently spotted in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe.
Victoria Falls is a Natural Wonder of the world, and the name of the resort town that is located in the Matabeleland North Province of Zimbabwe.
The town is located on the northern border which separates Zimbabwe from Zambia, on the Zambezi River, about 1000km from its source.
Victoria Falls is home to the Tonga community which refers to the falls as Mosi-oa-Tunya, which means “the smoke that thunders.”
David Livingstone became the first European explorer to discover Victoria Falls in 1855. He mapped the location and made it known to the outside world. Livingstone named the place Victoria Falls in honour of the Queen of Britain at that time.
In this day and age, Forty two years after Independence someone still says Livingstone “discovered” the Falls! Zvimwe itaiwo muchipepuka mbichana.
Hamuna kunyatsoverenga mukoma. Kwanzi:
