While he had planned it all along, 89-year-old Nomkikilizo was in complete shock. But it was not long before she was making noise and giving praise. Dressed in a blue seshweshwe dress and matching headdress, she shuffled to the stage in her black sneakers.

November 15, 2017 is not an ordinary day in Zimbabwe's political history. The day was characterised by action-packed events that culminated in the resignation of former president Mr Robert Mugabe. History has recorded November 15, 2017 as the epic day that canonised the end of Mr Mugabe's long rule.
