Solomon Manganyi 🇿🇼 🇬🇧 Chief Mayisa Mzala Tom My family name is however not mentioned. Ours mov3d from Hogo in Lower Gwelo in 1942 and settled in Chief Gwebu's territory

General Chat Defined Chief Mayisa I don't understand why people are taking offence at such stories. Shona history is replete with stories of dynasties losing teritories to others due to certain incapacities. My own ancestor Muswere (originally Swahili) is reputed to hv transfered fire technology his host, Madziwa

I always believe that tribalism was taught and it was a strategy to divide people. If Ndebele and Shona hated each other so much, this was not going to be possible.

Chief Mayisa Mzala Tom These are the people who can bridge the gap of tribalism, they must teach both Ndebeles and Shonas to live together side by side, no hating on each other.

Thanks Chief Mayisa for your post about the Ndebele people in Buhera and for referencing my work on this important topic in our history. Here is the link to the entire article: file:///C:/Users/Francis%20Musoni/Downloads/Forced_Resettlement_Ethnicity_and_the_Un.pdf

Chief Mayisa Scotch WeZhira Mzala Tom I come from the Garamwera area and growing up there was never hatred of the Ndebele neighbours at all. Even during the Gukuruhundi period life in the village just proceeded as normal.

Chief Mayisa Native Informant 🇿🇼 So true my bro, all those names (families) in your article do exist. Chief Gwebu is our Chief in Buhera in the heart of Chief Makumbe territory - we are like a little Lesotho in SA. Aftican tribes have co-existed since time immemorial.

Chief Mayisa Scotch WeZhira Mzala Tom Once asked my grandfather why it was mostly the Ndebele families that were settled in areas with red soils and he said at the time they came those soils were not desirable as they were difficult to till.

JT Chief Mayisa Mzala Tom I suppose that proves that tribalism was really an instigation by Zanu politicians for purposes of power rather than a people versus people issue.

Chief Mayisa Native Informant 🇿🇼 Glad you reposted the article by Mzala Tom, extracted from a piece of research by Musoni. Our grand fathers were part of the group that arrived around 1930s from Somabhula.

Chief Mayisa Ubuntu Bethu Mzala Tom Kulungile Chief, ngizabuza abadala nxa kukhona okokwengeza ngembali ye Buhera ngizakwazisa.

This is a beautiful story of how Africans have always treated each other with Ubuntu . Even King Mzilikazi welcomed different tribes & built 1 big Kingdom .
Tribalism is a project of the colonizer because they know United we stand , divided we fall

Do you think that maybe there was also a problem in the way the Ndebele kingdom was structured and that it might have helped those who were pro tribal politics like Mugabe?
