Indigenisation is not for the clueless

How do you carry out indigenisation with a population devoid of national identity knowing no other society standards than mindless imitation of those left behind by the racist white culture?

All they yearn for are jobs from white FDI. You read the so called Zimbabwe independent media: you find that there is no discussion of issues but instead vulgar insults of everything indigenous, mainly centred on official individuals of choice.

Of course signatories to these articles are indigenous but the language is vulgar Rhodesian.

What is required is an active re-orientation of all those to be employed in state institutions.

The “STATE” is not a feeding trough for the nationally and politically clueless.

Not yet uhuru.
