I just saw this.

You know that zim didnt exactly raise him, they actually kicked him out of his farm house.
Zim literally did the opposite of what you just said, told him he wasnt welcome.

This is a good point - well done for mentioning this. Yet again this demonstrates how far we as Zimbabweans have to come. The bald facts are that we are very backward. We are continually excluding people in Zimbabwe based on tribe, race, political affiliation, etc. We are producing talent which is encouraging, but in all fields from sport to medicine to education to business, the rest of the world is benefitting - not us.

Let's try in future to be inclusive and patriotic people in the future and stop this nonsense.

Exactly right, but he could come back and lease a couple of farms right now for a dollar a hectare in some instances, and perhaps from the very person that took it in the first place. Farming has proven to be more difficult than playing cricket. The current policy on farms is interesting. They're trying to get some farmers back on the land, they're giving farms to Chinese, to Corporate entities with suitable representation and yet they're still booting other people off that have survived under extreme circumstances after all these years. We are all scratching our heads. They're saying come back, go away, we need help, we need food, you owe us, we will never be a colony again (except if it's a Chinese one!) and it's mighty confusing. It's a giant mess.
