March 1963 The Man Who Didnt Stay To Dinner The little town of Rusape had never seen such a day before. Armed police tried to clear the enthusiastic crowd, but couldnt. Nkomo and his friends had spent two nights in detention. Joshua Nkomo went to a dinner party that Saturday night, but he didnt finish dinner. As his meal stood on the table uneaten, Nkomo was in Jail. The Southern Rhodesian African Nationalist leader who had eluded jail so long was spending his first night in the cells together with three others from the dinner party James Chikerema, Daniel Madzimbamuto, and Maurice Nyagumbo, all former long-term Gokwe restrictees.
