Fadzayi Mahere revels in her 39th birthday
the former legislator counts her blessings and boasts of owning two upmarket houses
Harare- LEGAL practitioner and former legislator Fadzayi Mahere turned 39 years old Thursday and took time to count her blessings documenting a seemingly turbulent journey in her social and political life.
Mahere has been in and out jail in 2020 and 2021 where she was arrested for alleged incitement of public violence and for peddling falsehoods respectively.
Posting on her X (formerly Twitter) handle, Mahere was grateful for the gift of life:
“The thirties. A decade of amazing. Worked hard. Partied hard. Bought a house. Travelled the world. Deepened old friendships. Made new ones. Got that Jag. Jetted from city to city making speeches. Lost an election. Went to jail. Bought another house. Won an election. Extraordinary blessings. My heart is so full,” she wrote
Mahere’s father is former Education permanent secretary in the First Republic.
She grew up in Mt Pleasant and attended Arundel High school.
She enrolled in 2004 at the University of Zimbabwe, where she obtained a Bachelor of Law Honours degree (LLB Hons) in 2008. In 2010 she enrolled at the University of Cambridge for a Master of Laws degree in International Criminal Law & International Commercial Litigation, graduating in 2011.
She is a founding member of now defunct opposition political party CCC.
