It has been announced at Nyamandhlovu that Ms Gladys Dongo, the Zimbabwean
celebrity and reigning shot put champion, is to take up an appointment to
Addis Ababa as special envoy in charge of making the place work again.
Ms Dongo, whose style is described as short, but not very sweet, was
credited with getting the city of Nyamandhlovu operating again after the
strike at Mkombe's Trading Store and Beer Garden brought the metropolis to a
halt during the economic crisis of 1995.
It is reckoned that the Ethiopians, whose problem is that they have become
lazy and keep on killing each other, will soon buckle down once Gladys
delivers the aid which she is bringing from the people of Zimbabwe.
Basically it consists of a smack in the mouth.
While in the Horn (which is the fancy name for that part of Africa) it is
also hoped that Ms Dongo will establish why there has been such a flurry of
email missives from both Ethiopia and Eritrea to our part of the world. It
is suspected that the teachers there are putting their students up to it as
a class project.
Ms Dongo will be accompanied by her close associate, Professor Isosceles
Vilikazi, who will be on a fact finding mission to the University of
Eritrea, to establish how it came to be regarded as one of the top
universities in the world, thus dislodging the University of Zimbabwe from
that coveted position.
