I’m Ndebele from Zimbabwe and i can tell you that we are not treated like Zimbabweans in Zimbabwe because of our ancestors being from the Zulu land.-I_am_Bucie
No Mokone. Nadia is a Zimbabwean living in South Africa, no piece of paper will ever change the fact that she’s ethnically Zimbabwean-LonePatriot.
If your parents are Zimbabwean, so are you and that’s not debatable, be proud of your countries and stop making SA United Stated of Africa. Niyadina man tyhooo-DrNomathamsanqa.
