Love is a Beautiful Thing

By Itai Mazire 

Lucy and Sir Wicknell Chivayo shine like a beacon of grace and devotion.

Theirs is a story of unity, strength, and shared purpose proof that when two hearts align, they can build not only a life, but a legacy.

Lucy’s elegance and quiet strength perfectly complement Sir Wicknell’s bold ambition and generosity.

Together, they embody a partnership rooted in loyalty, faith and mutual respect.

As we observe the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender‑Based Violence, their bond reminds us of what healthy love looks like- mutual trust, consistent respect, shared power and walking life’s journey hand in hand.

These are the values that protect against abuse and create safe, thriving relationships.

Let their example be a call to action to celebrate love that empowers rather than controls.

A need to challenge attitudes, behaviours and systems that tolerate violence and to support survivors with compassion and concrete services. Ending gender‑based violence requires all of us partners, families, communities and leaders to practice equality every day and to intervene when we see harm.

True love is not just about grand gestures its about commitment to one another’s dignity, safety, and wellbeing. This 16 Days of Activism, pledge to stand against GBV: listen to survivors, speak out, educate and work for systemic change so that every relationship can be rooted in respect and free from violence.
