An intellectually agile public policy, governance and legal professional, Zuwa Matondo navigates daily the ever-dynamic geo-socio-political ecosystem through his initiative, “Gov-Enhance Africa”.  In this episode, he talks about politics from an African worldview including Zimbabwe politics, ZimbabweLivesMatter as well as colonialism, racism and land rights. He reveals intimate conversations he had with Robert Mugbe before his death. Through three songs of his choice from Kenya, Ghana and Togo, he has taken us on multiple anecdotes in different countries he visited and artists he met. On culture, Zuwa advocates to de-stigmatize therapy and debates gender roles because he believes “the future is female”, he also, openly and for the first time publicly, talked about LGBTQI+ community, masculinity and femininity.
