| Mandaza in the middle |
One of Zimbabwe’s greatest sprinters, Artwell Mandaza, has
fallen on tough times. Mandaza who never competed in the Olympic Games because
his incredible 10,3 to 9,9 second searing sprints were performed when Rhodesia
was barred from the Olympic Games.
When he retired he went on to coach athletes for the 1984
and 1988 Olympics for Zimbabwe. But then things just fell apart. Now a group of
Mhangura folk have trekked him down in Chitungwiza and now want to help this
icon whose health is failing.
The group, calling itself, Mhangura Lives on, says Mandaza
was a living legend in Mhangura and deserved support. The group is now fund
raising to help the legend.
