Unpresidented
Page 19
In his spare time, Tariro continues to attempt to sell timeshare at the Homestead and get in touch with the Guppies.
He has big plans to take over the presidency from Robert Mugabe, when the latter eventually retires, on the tenth of never.
TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY-FOUR DAYS AFTER DEADLINE
After the Rand Daily Mail broke the story with transcripts, affidavits, and three hard drives full of proof, the Guppy brothers were arrested on multiple charges of corruption and fraud.
They can’t take Muza’s calls because there’s no signal in their holding cell.
Acknowledgements
Writing a book is an act of craziness, so I don’t know whether to thank or reprimand these people for giving me the kind of ongoing encouragement, advice, handholding, eye-rolling, anti-procrastination ass-kicking, space, enthusiasm, feedback, beta reading and support it takes to keep going until you get something like this done.
So thanks, but no thanks to: Sarah Lotz, Helen Moffett, Warren McKnight, Karin Barry-McCormack (thank you for another amazing cover), Edyth Bulbring (thank you for the lovely title), Rahla Xenopoulos, Darrel Bristow-Bovey, Yewande Omotoso, Sophy Kohler, Snaye Gumede, Jabu Sigege, Marius du Plessis, Jason Mykl Snyman, Mervyn Sloman, Zapiro, Andrew Brown, Niq Mhlongo, Ray Hartley, and Charles Martins, as well as Mia and Teddy. And of course the incredible Bookstorm team, powerhouses Louise Grantham, Nicola van Rooyen and Russell Clarke.
