1. I’ve no idea whether the letter is fake. But I will indulge you & comment on the ZDDI, which I had the honour to chair a decade ago. As its name implies, its purpose was to create an interface between the Diaspora & the Zimbabwean Government, which it did with modest success
2. In September 2009, the ZDDI hosted an investment conference in London officiated by Ministers of the Zim Government, our Embassy and the private sector including the head of Zimbabwe Investment Authority & the ZSE. All of this is in the public record.
3. Please feel free to check with the Zimbabwean Embassy in London & you will find that the ZDDI was known to them & had cordial relations with them. Indeed, they were important participants at the said conference which was meant for Zimbabwe’s development.
4. There may indeed be some Zimbabweans on this TL who might remember this beautiful event. I’m proud of the team, some of them have gone on to occupy key roles in both the public & private sector in Zimbabwe & elsewhere. Being ZDDI chair actually appears on my resume.
