This is my niece Nancy Chidawa visiting from London. Her mother was my father’s first cousin. Her maternal grandfather, Kuzanga, was my grandfather’s younger brother.
Kuzanga and Chin’ono were Mukusha’s sons. I grew up with my father teaching me about the entire family and our lineage.
When I moved to London to study in 1994, Nancy and I connected, and she stood as my guarantor when I rented my first apartment in Abbey Wood, Plumstead, London. I often speak about the importance of our ancestors to us, rather than hero-worshipping people from the Middle East.
To give a clearer understanding of our family relationships, my father was Chin’ono’s last-born child, born in 1920. Chin’ono and Kuzanga were born in the 1800s, yet we remain as close today as they were then because we respect our ancestors.
I am happy that mwana watete wangu is here with me. The ancestors will be smiling wherever they are because the Creator asked us to respect our lineage and not disparage it. That is where our blessings come from.

@higheerground @daddyhope I also learnt that when I came to Harare, my Uncle's daughter ethi kimi (mwanawangu), i was like , noooo, we are cousins, ungumntakamalume wena, ungumzawami. Anasinyoro munopikisa dictionary ka @Mugadza40

@daddyhope I will never understand why Shona speakers say their aunt's children are their nephews/nieces. In Ndebele culture we would call them our cousins (umzawami or umzala). Nephew or niece would be my sister's child

🔴 Degrees and job titles were once useful proxies for ability. Today, they are increasingly poor indicators of a candidate’s capacity to perform and adapt.

Even if you tell me they will be knocked out in the group stages, I will still watch them play. I'm that patriotic. Simple! #GoWarriorsGo
