"A freedom fighter learns the hard way that it is the oppressor who defines the nature of the struggle, and the oppressed is often left no recourse but to use methods that mirror those of the oppressor. At a point, one can only fight fire with fire."

The ZPRA commander Lieutenant General Lookout Masuku died on this day in 1986 at the age of 46 .He was arrested in 1982 on charges of plotting a coup against Robert Mugabe.He was acquitted in 1983 but immediately detained again under emergency powers. At his burial Joshua Nkomo said: "Mafela, Lookout, after all his sacrifices, died a pauper in our own hands. We cannot blame colonialism and imperialism for this tragedy. We who fought against these things & we now practise them. Why? Why? Why? ....And one of the worst evils we see today is corruption. The country bleeds today because of corruption.There is something radically wrong with our country today and we are moving fast towards destruction. There is confusion and corruption and, let us be clear about it, we are seeing racism in reverse under false mirror of correcting imbalances from the past. .No country can live by slogans, pasi this and pasi that. When you are ruling you should never say pasi to anyone. If there is something wrong with someone you must try to uplift him, not oppress him. We cannot condemn other people and then do things even worse than they did.Yes, he can be forgotten temporarily by the state. But the young people who do research will one day unveil what Lookout has done" #Asakhe
