hahaha.. representing Zimbabwe.. Where is Zimbabwe now.. Economically??
representing zimbabwe how? he hasnt lived in zimbabwe for a very long time
Representing Zimbabwe reminds me of a history cartoon where the elite eat on the top table, with the masses picking the falling bits under the table. One elite guy stood up and said “If you are under the table, don’t worry, we eat for you!”
He is making his money in Zimbabwe. You can imagine ecocash is now the currency circulating in industry and commerce including inn rural areas.
Zimbabweans really need to celebrate their success stories…and the best one in terms of Business acumen , happens to be Strive Masiyiwa. No amount of negative sentiment can take that away from him. Hardwork and a focused clean mind will take you everywhere you want to go. We celebrate your successes @ strive, and as we are pushing on as a country, against all odds…your success inspires us. Zimbabwe lives!!!
A very stingy and cruel businessman, pays his staff peanuts in order 2 compete with Bill Gates who pays his staff very well…
