Fellow Brymaton family, comrades, ladies and gentlemen.
Today is Workers’ Day. And today, I don’t want to talk to you as your boss. I want to talk to you as a worker beside you.
*To my Brymaton Security team:*
You stand in the rain. You walk at night. You protect other people’s families while your own sleep. In Zimbabwe today, safety is not guaranteed. But because of you, our clients sleep in peace. You are not just guards. You are guardians. Your uniform carries dignity. Thank you for choosing to be brave every single shift.
*To my Brymaton Construction team:*
Look at your hands. Those are not just hands. Those are the hands that moulded 10,000 bricks at Brymaton farm. Those are the hands that put a roof on the Medicals Block. Those are the hands that will build the dorms where 40 Zimbabweans will get their lives back. In a country where many young men are lost to drugs, you chose to build. You are not just builders. You are nation builders. Every wall you raise is a wall against poverty. I salute you.
*To the future team of Brymaton Rehabilitation Center:*
Some of you here today will be counselors. Some will be cooks. Some will be farm supervisors. Your job will be the hardest of all - to help a brother or sister choose life when they’ve forgotten how. You won’t just work for a salary. You will work for souls. Zimbabwe has a drug crisis. But because of the work we will do together, 40 families at a time will get their sons and daughters back. That is holy work.
*To all Brymaton workers:*
Three companies. One mission. *We build, we protect, we restore.*
Security protects what Construction builds. Construction builds the place where Rehabilitation restores lives. And Rehabilitation gives purpose to the men and women we protect and employ. We are one chain. No link is small.
I know times are hard. I know the USD is scarce and prices rise every week. I know some of you walk far to get here. But I also know this:
