THE REPUBLIC OF DONGO PARLIMENTARIAN MARGARET DONGO (1445 words)
For Zimbabwean parliamentarian Margaret Dongo it was sheer, humiliating sexism: Female members of the governing party were being required to travel to the airport at all hours, and literally kneel down on the tarmac to welcome visiting dignitaries and the president when he returned home.
Dongo became a medical assistant and part of her duties were to ensure that every section in the front lines had first aid kits.
Dongo's boldest challenge came after 1995 elections where she ran as an independent and was defeated as a result of massive voter fraud.
