POLITICAL GOVERNANCE AND THOUGHTS

Sindiso is a Social Democrat and has a distaste for imperialist or dictatorship tendencies from white, black, yellow, green or whatever man and he is a fighter for the people, and his freedoms.
Without apology Sindiso believes that to protect so called “minorities”, and develop communities, encouraging local participation, and dismantling authoritarian and dictatorship by the so-called majority, Zimbabwe must be (not devolution of power) but a federal country giving more voices to locals on language, allocation of resources and protecting their interests.  He hates the centralized and oppressive central governance system.  Federalism is a right, and it will help in Zimbabwe, and all over the world, particularly in Africa to debunk colonial boundaries and bring more unity amongst the people.  The right to self determination is key to world peace and development.
It is central that all men are born equal, and the quest to run other people’s lives based on tribe, race and gender is inimical to current and future thinking.
Oppression and Repression have no place in modern day societies.  The war of liberation was fought to bring change and freedom, and Sindiso praises the gallant sons and daughters of Zimbabwe and says: Let Freedom For All be real.  No imperialism, or oppression anymore by whites or by blacks.
Sindiso is inspired by the struggles by the people all over the world who have said and are saying; “we are interested in bread and butter, jobs, food; development and also we demand our freedoms”.
Ronald Reagan the former American President once said the Government must stop running peoples lives, but give the people a frame work to co-operate.  Professor Welshman Ncube, Sindiso’s former lecturer at the University opinioned that the origins of the organised and state were premised on coming together for the common good.  The fundamentals of state formation have been rigged all over the world and hijacked by oppressive political parties (whether ruling or not ruling); governments; strongman and imperialists.  New political parties and movements have been nothing but a disaster.  A sad re-incarnation of the forces they want to dislodge.
Sindiso believes in the people’s freedom; free from all oppression and repression.  Sindiso believes another Zimbabwe, free from tribal and racial bigotry is possible where people of all races and tribes can co-exist for the common good and advancement.
