HARARE – Politicians from both the MDC-T and Zanu PF put aside their differences on Thursday as they came out in support of Dr. Patson Dzamara who launched his 7th book, FORCED 2 FIGHT at the Jameson Hotel in the capital Harare.
Patson is the brother of abducted journalist turned-activist Itai Dzamara.
The book launch was attended by main opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai, MDC-T Secretary General Douglas Mwonzora, Former ICT Minister and Kuwadzana MP Nelson Chamisa, Affirmative Action Group (AAG) president Chamu Chiwanza, Former Zanu PF provincial chairman and MP Temba Mliswa and Acie Lumumba (Zanu PF).

Dzamara’s book comes just 6months after the launch of his 6th book in April, DEAR MISTER DEAR MISS. His latest offering “Forced to Fight” is a book that describes how life is a series of fights and not just a walk in the park.
The leadership and personal development expert explains how fighting is the bridge separating success and failure and whether people like it or not they have to fight. Through the guide of the TV personality Tariro Makanga, the attendants were treated to inspirational testimonies of how the panelists had been FORCED 2 FIGHT in their quest for success.
The guest speakers were Dr Sheila McCray who travelled all the way from USA to attend the launch and Dr. Nigel Chanakira. They both highlighted how the author himself had been forced to fight on his highway to success as they shared some of the experiences he had gone through which led to where he is today.
Chanakira hailed the launch of this 7th book as the ‘watershed moment’ for Dr Dzamara as the number 7 has a biblical meaning of perfection. There was to be a surprise for the guests as Dzamara performed his inaugural music piece entitled ‘Ndimi vanhu wangu’.
