Hwange Central legislator Daniel Molokerla-Tsiye says the poverty in Zimbabwe today is unacceptable because God blessed the country with a lot of natural resources. “Poverty is a curse, poverty is not a blessing, we must not accept poverty,” Mplokela-Tisye said. “The poverty that I see in Hwange today, the poverty that I see in Zimbabwe today is totally unacceptable because God has blessed this country with a lot of natural resources. Today, everyone who is born in Hwange is born poor while Hwange is a town built on coal, the black diamond. When I was a child growing up in Hwange, the Hwange that I saw and the Hwange that I see today are complete opposites.
