Many of our Rural Areas are cut off from development. Educating our future is not about just building the Primary School or Secondary School or University and then you create barriers to access education. Poverty is one of the barriers...

John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960. Both were particularly concerned with civil rights. Both wives lost a child while living in the White House. Both Presidents were shot on a Friday. Both Presidents were shot in the head. Now it gets really weird. Lincoln’s secretary was named Kennedy. Kennedy’s Secretary was named Lincoln. Both were assassinated by Southerners. Both were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson....

As part of liberalisation, government ministers refused to bank their ministry’s public funds with the people’s bank. Some ministries withdrew money held in ZANACO accounts and opened new accounts with private banks.
