ZIMBABWE’S Munyaradzi Chidzonga has declared a desire “to go into politics” after surviving his seventh Big Brother All Stars nomination on Sunday.
The 24-year-old is beginning to enjoy vying for the public mandate to stay in the hit TV show he now fancies a crack at political office.
After seeing Malawi’s “best DJ” Code Sangala become the seventh housemate to be kicked off the show on Sunday, Munya stayed late into the night in conversation with Botswana’s Kaone Ramontshonyana.
Munya told Kaone: “It was always a dream of mine to go into politics.”
The Zimbabwean then declared his wish to meet up with President Robert Mugabe.
“I wanna meet my President and that for me would be a dream come true,” said the dad of one who revealed his girlfriend, ex-Idols contestant Adiona Maboreke, had performed for the First Family.
“My girlfriends has met the President, the group she sings with ... one of the ladies is cousins with the President’s wife, they sing for her,” Munya went on. “They had a nice little chat, she’s got a number and everything, the first lady’s. She sang at the President’s son’s birthday party. I could have gone, I could have met him.”
Earlier, Munya, who was up for eviction with Code and Nigeria’s Uti Nwachukwu, clasped his hands together as if in prayer when he was told he was safe for another week as the show reached the halfway stage.
Uti won votes from eight countries -- Angola, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Mozambique, Nigeria, Tanzania and Uganda while Munya got votes from Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe and the Rest of Africa. Code’s single vote to save him came from his country Malawi.
