““I want to single out one man in particular who spoilt Mugabe - Rugare Gumbo- who is still in the government. He had been in charge of publicity in the Chitepo-led external group before Mugabe left Rhodesia. He was a very effective propagandist, an ideologue. He began preaching Marxism. Mugabe liked the sound of this ideology and before long, he had completely fallen for it and begun to sing the Marxism/Leninism song. But that's all it was - rhetoric. There was no genuine vision or belief behind it.””
