ever is a very important day in zimbabwe this is the day we are supposed to go to commemorate or to celebrate our independence day does a very important day where we also salute and their contribution in the sector fries made by those who fought in the labor erosions struggle but this is also the day which makes main office of the bobbins a day i said looking at the zimbabwe that we have today because there's very much lead to left it just to celebrate we can we it's called an independence day but there's no liberty and that is not independence at all so that's makes this a day you say there's no lives and you've brought it with you at your latest book it's titled dismantling at the system of mugabe is of in chapter nine and you talk about this in bobby needing to be liberated from zanu p.f. elaboration that. in this book just one thing mugabe's in my pen did this book soon after the military coup which of a through president robert mugabe november of twenty seven thousand and we we were

so excited and the euphoria was so high yet but later on we realized that we changed the feste of the person that can even did a bit good to the colonial you know the one who changed the call out of the or precise need was an oprah style we got we got in a prison so i realized that. we are getting it wrong because we are changing the faces of the person not the entire system so by dismantling mugabe's in the in this book ugly doing that yes mugabe is gone but the mugabe's him it's a culture it's a system with tentacles like an octopus so we need to dismantle the entire system so that we can we're going to be able to establish a new political structure which ran and it was about to release to meaningful change that we anticipate right you have been going around india bend and you have been bringing the plight of the human rights situation in zimbabwe to people here

and gear up what don't we know about the human rights violations that are taking place in zimbabwe right now the situation in zimbabwe is moving from actually bed to west out one day international community out one the word to know that there are many untold stories untold gross human rights violations which others have engineered generally of twenty nine to the beatings the torture the rape and of the terrorists and the killings of two or so or civilians or the army using eleven i mean it's not civilians that a lot of gross you know as violations which happened which are not told the internet was bled out so i feel this is a story which needs to be told these are violations which need to be investigated up to this day that not told because people are afraid some are just getting out of prison on bail and and things like that so many of these violations remains and

untold because of the intimidation because of the repression which is underway rice simple been human rights activists causing massive oil thank you. all right our next story is and mozambique which continues to struggle with the devastation caused by cycling much of the attention has focused on the situation in the port city off beira that city suffered damage to ninety percent of the buildings many people have been displaced but the story is similar along the coast off mozambique nearly two million people are still in need of help hundreds of thousands of houses have been damaged all destroyed our correspondent. she the community off and same to us this report. these fields way jackie's only source of income they were in fact her entire life she has always lived in farm to you with her family but this year everything changed.

badly needed rice beans and all the jackie is really. because of it what about we suffered for so long and had nothing to each day after day we just got by on the remains of whatever vegetables we could find. just today more than two thousand families came for russians most of the people here are farmers and they wait impatiently as the food is distributed. their fields were under water for quite some time so they are affected in some locations even in the cities of. almost west so you can imagine the. kind of water on the crops and scrapes to expect this community to be fair for quite some time. finding in this area. jackie has arrived back home or at least what is left of it her previous home was completely destroyed

in the cycle with the help of her neighbors the sixty one year old managed to build a small hats everything that jackie could save is in here it is also where she and three family members sleep. nevertheless at least they finally have rise to cook the family has not eaten a proper meal for weeks now. of course i'm happy right now but then again not really because when the food here is gone i don't know where i'll get more i don't know what will happen i don't have any money nothing to. rebuild my house with and then thin the did. visit glimmer of hope in the jackie's field at least a neighbor gave her a few seeds and they're just now starting to sprout if everything goes to plan and she could be eating her own crops again in the bud six months time. that's all i
