Zim-born US soldier creates buzz

Zimbabwe-born United States soldier, Captain Tinashe Machona, became a hit on Wednesday when President Donald Trump laid siege on US Capitol where the Congress was meeting to certify President-elect Joe Biden’s victory.

Capt Tinashe Machona is the spokesman for the District of Columbia National Guard, a branch of the US National Guard, comprising the Army National Guard and the DC Air National Guard components.

President Trump’s supporters caused chaos which eventually led to the death of four protesters.

Following the deteriorating security situation at US Capitol, Capt Machona announced the mobilisation of the entire DC National Guard.

“The entire DC National Guard has been mobilised and is prepared to support law enforcement officers in various locations in the city to protect property, allowing federal and local law enforcement officers to do law-enforcement missions,” reads part of the statement by Capt Machona.

Capt Machona is a holder of a PhD in Law from Arizona Summit Law School.

He has held various positions in the United States Air Force.

Many Zimbabweans are holding top positions across the world, a clear demonstration of the sound education system that has been instituted and maintained since independence. The Herald.

    The only statement I disagree with, our education is poor. Once you are exposed to other countries you will see how primitive our ways, sources and institutions are. More than 80% is arguably irrelevant to the current world

    We claim that us Zimbabweans we are educated but why our economy is so poor? We are not educated at all … if we were educated we were supposed to have one of the best economy in the world.

    Why do Zimbabweans have this mentality of wanting or wishing for someone else to come to Zim and liberate us.
    This is the main and biggest cause of our unending problems

    How different is the person from you cause we are all the same a
    As a man are you not ashamed of wishing another man to come to your aid
    Help you with something that you can do for yourself
    It’s written all over the walls the virus is sitting in the office doing nothing but mutating
    Developing ways ways to further infact the nation with more death corruption and looting
    Then you look at Machona why not you????!???
