A 54 year-old Filabusi businessman and Zanu PF member, Spare Sithole is preparing to sit for Ordinary Level examinations for the first time ever in November.

According to Sithole it took him such long time to prepare for examinations claiming that he has been too occupied with other urgent matters.

He only went up as far as Standard Five.

"It is unfortunate that last year I failed to sit for my exams. I got too occupied with other urgent matters. After missing my exams in November last year I hinted that I will sit for them in June. But because I haven't really gotten myself ready I have since found it rather essential for me to sit for them in November this year," he said.

"During the war, many of our kinsmen died without education. After attaining independence, many studied and decorated themselves with various certificates, diplomas and doctorates in various fields of education. This was possible after the war and look at where many of our fellow countrymen with various educational qualifications are - they have important positions in various corporates across the globe," said Sithole.

Sithole runs a security company - Para Reserve Security and Private Investigators with a total of 43 guards.
