What should concern Manyika and the rest of his colleagues in government is whether extending their hold on power that little bit longer justifies the catastrophe they are setting in motion through the exploitation of these young people.

Manyika's addition gave Collins the new capability of exploring a more complex fusion of pop and blue-eyed soul; consequently, 1982's Rip It Up was a more ambitious affair than its predecessor, veering from the buoyant Motown tribute "I Can't Help Myself" to the energetic pop of the title track, Orange Juice's lone Top Ten single.
Reduced to the duo of Collins and Manyika, Orange Juice enlisted reggae producer Dennis Bovell to record the 1984 EP Texas Fever.
After a makeshift tour, Collins and Manyika returned to the studio to record a dark, ambitious full-length effort; released in 1984, neither The Orange Juice nor its singles "What Presence?!" and "Lean Period" charted, and Collins was dropped from his contract, although Polydor kept Manyika on as a solo act.

Insiders say President Mugabe is keen to see his party rejuvenated before he engages in any dialogue with the MDC, which could possibly lead to fresh elections pitting his party, without him, and the opposition party.
