About Me

Greening: The Matimba tribe originated in Mozambique and immigrated to Limpopo- South Africa and then to Chipinge near Chiredzi under Chief Mapungwana, Zimbabwe. However after some years, the family immigrated from Chipinge to Rusitu, Zimbabwe. In Rusitu, the family split, some moved and settled in Chikukwa and some remained in Rusitu along the Zimbabwe and Mozambique borders. After some years, they immigrated to Mozambique and settled under chief Maathe, which is 250 km from the Zimbabwean border. This is the place where my grandfather Ngozana and his sisters Chapinda and Vhumbukwani and his step sister Matsweruka initially settled. My family could not settle at one place for any length of time, they kept moving from one area to another. This seemed to be a “contagious disease” in the whole Matimba tribe.
