    I am so happy you mention the late Brian Chimwariro your teacher who happened to be my workmate and friend at kwekwe High school. He told me sekuru vana bharanzi vepa Zisco havazivi kuti mufana uyu(Benjani) anogona bhora.

    Watching from Swaziland and I'm not even conversant with Shona but I enjoy the content from Zimbabwe. Benji....what can I say? I was a huge fan when he signed for Jomo Cosmos and looked head and shoulders above EVERYONE else. It was just insane and he was a huge inspiration. Then he took on the EPL and indeed, him and Yaya Toure laid the groundwork for present day, all conquering Manchester City. Not many SADC footballers make it to the highest level now and it makes you appreciate just how good these guys were. Love and light to you and your future endeavours

    Parents should teach kids on how to handle fame - Benjani. We've seen a lot of footballers die paupers because of fame that got to their medulla. Captivating conversation. Nothing beats hardwork, Benjani could've been one of those not super talented players but his hardwork made him a star. Not everyone gets a chance to play for top teams like ManCity and score against the mighty Red Devils. Siyabonga Malume Trevor for this episode. Hope you'll be able to bring the likes of Nsukuzonke to the couch soon... Singaba happy njani! Cheers.

Trevor as always, excellent at knowing the background of the interviewee, asking relevant questions, and making Benjani feel at home.

People only see the success side of your story but never the struggle that built it and 2. You can do hundreds of good things but if you do one bad thing society will forget about all the good you have done and focus on that one bad thing.
