Hi world
This is one of the most sensible things that will happen to Southern Africa.
I
have worked with Lionel, and I do not know any human being who deserves the
honor better. Well done Lionel! Congratulations! Keep it up.
If this message gets to Lionel, he will remember me as the former President
of
the Zimbabwe Film and Video Association (1992 - 1994) who invited him to the
Zimbabwe Film Festival as a guest speaker.
