    All of these people are products of strict parents. Discipline is key. A parent's ability to identify gifts and nurture these young souls is also key.

    Met Mati when she was 15 in high school.. at youth camps… remember her as being talkative and larger than life- not surprising where she is now… good on you Mati! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

      For any society, institution or country to prosper, women in leadership roles are key. Patriarchy and misogyny are holding Zim back, just my opinion.

    Thank.you Trevor for this particular interview. The lived experiences of Dr. Mati - a brilliant woman and child of the Kingdom of God. Mati"s father was a childhood friend of mine at Mt. Silinda Mission. Yes Comrade Mao later. He was cheerful and full of jokes. We thank God for his life and contribution in the struggle for the liberation of our beloved country. Unfortunately the Zimbabwe we have today is not what was fought for. Very sad. Mati's mom did a wonderful job too.
    All the best
    Dr. Hlatshwayo-Davis.

    This is another awesome interview Trevor. Keep them coming. We are most proud of you Matifadza. If I were a government leader in Zim I would find an innovative way of marshaling the input of all these smart trailblazing Zimbabweans regardless of where they are. I think their greatest impact is contributing from wherever they are, with ideas and technical support. Money is the last thing I would ask for, if at all. Money follows ideas.

    Its funny how life is. When I heard the name Hlatshiwayo I remembered I knew this name but was not sure if there was any connection. I lived two houses from Mati's dad as a kid growing up in Highfields in an area popularly as "ma 12 pounds". I was much younger than him but he was always friendly to us young ones. I hung out with his youngest brother Cyprian and my step brother became friends with his other brother Prince. Gaylord's best friend was Thomas Mandigora who became a diplomat in the government after independence. Great to see that line being kept alive. Great people. Their dad, Mati's grandfather was Zimbabwe's first black advocate I think. I stand to be corrected.
