Mutambara to address Zimbabwe Diaspora in London
Zimbabwe Diaspora Focus Group Coalition (ZDFG)
July 22, 2010

The Zimbabwe Diaspora Focus Group (ZDFG), a coalition of Zimbabwean organisations is cordially inviting Zimbabweans to a meeting with Zimbabwe Deputy Prime Minister Arthur Mutambara at the Lumen United reformed Church, 88 Tavistock Place, London WC1H 9RS Saturday 24th July from 19:00hrs to
21:00hrs.

ZDFG chairperson Mrs Lucia Dube said: "ZDFG works for Zimbabweans and these meetings are free. It is important that Zimbabweans have an opportunity to meet the people making decisions about their lives."

DPM Mutambara is one of two deputy Prime Ministers in the Zimbabwe coalition government. The Oxford educated engineer is in London to also attend a conference organised by the Zimbabwe Institute of Engineers. He has today been talking about the need to focus on infrastructure development in the rehabilitation of Zimbabwe.

The ZDFG recently hosted the other deputy Prime Minister Thokozani Khupe and Minister of Education, Sport, Arts and Culture Senator David Coltart. "We will continue facilitating these meetings for our Zimbabwean people in a non-partisan way. It is our responsibility as Zimbabweans to identify our own roles in the reconstruction of Zimbabwe and to seek an understanding on what the Government of the day is doing about our issues," Mrs Dube said.

The ZDFG is a coalition of UK based Zimbabwean organisations formed on the 19th February 2010 at Ilford, London. It seeks to offer Zimbabweans a platform to work collaboratively and in a coordinated way, on issues that affect their stay in the UK and sharing ideas on contributing to making Zimbabwe a better place.
