Hundreds of youths in Matabeleland South
braved the souring heat and sat for hours in the relentless sun at an open
space in front of OJ’s in the medium
density suburb of Beitbridge to welcome their leader Solomon “Mandela” Madzore.
Madzore was accompanied by his deputy Costa
Machingauta, Treasurer General Dube Munkombwe, Organising Secretary Mpumelelo
Ndlovu, deputy Organiser Happymore Chidziva and National Spokesperson Clifford
Hlatywayo.
Any sane person could expect the
incarceration trauma and inconvenience on the Youth Assembly boss who stayed in
remand for 14 months to dominate the speeches but the but the MDC’s recently launched economical blue print JUICE
stole the show.
Madzore told the youths in Beitbridge that
the leadership of Rt Hon Dr Morgan
Richard Tsvangirai under JUICE will make sure that jobs are created for the
young people so that they become financially independent.
‘With JUICE you are best assured that
employment will be there for you we as the MDC have a plan that Mugabe cannot
invent because he is too old to think now he has reduced most of us to
parasites who ask their parents for undergarments because we cannot buy them for ourselves ,” Madzore said.
Madzore glorified his leader Morgan
Tsvangirai and urged the youths to register and vote for him he equated his
leader to the economical blue print.
‘Our leader Dr Tsvangirai is worth voting
for he is as good as JUICE you drink it and it is good for health I am sure
Mugabe is a toxic liquid which should stay away from human consumption,’ he
said.
Madzore said the youths should respect a
party that is there to create jobs because that is the only way that can see
all our beloved brothers leaving dangerously in exile coming back home.
“When we create jobs we want our brothers
to come back and get formal employment ,there are stay in countries where they
take up menial jobs and living in fear of Xenophobia and other evil things that
a foreigner can face.
“Mugabe is a failure, because of that young
people have ran away from their country of births, four million emigrations
in a warless situation is a world record
we do not want to set records for the wrong reasons,” the President of the
Youth Assembly said.
Speaking at the same event MDC-T Provincial
youth Chairperson Cllr Morgan Ncube put his weight behind his leader pointing
out that JUICE can unlock a regional curse.
“In Matebeleland the industries have closed
and our young people are unemployed go
to the Border you will find a majority of them doing illegal deals but I am
sure with JUICE’s investment and capital plan that will come to an end ,’Cllr
Ncube said.
Drums coughed and sneezed in a sandwich of
hand claps and ululations after a two men theatre group called Flame of Jaunda
also sang from the JUICE hymn book saying it was unemployment that is landing
many youths in Jail.
Adrain Musa and Calvin Moyo’s act showed
the audience clearly that the mad search for money in an economy that is not
generating jobs can make youths fall for anything making life a gamble.
The Municipal town Council Chairperson of
Beitbridge Fanuel Mandebvu attended the youth rally together with his deputy
Patricia Ndhlovu
Together to end,building a youth with a difference.
