Guy Georgias

Aguy Clement Georgias (born Aguy Zvavahera Ushe; 22 June 1935 – 19 December 2015) was a Zimbabwean businessman and politician. He was the founder of Trinity Engineering and served as Deputy Minister of Public Works as well as the Deputy Minister Economic Development. In his youth, he moved from Chivu to Harare, where he changed his name to Aguy Clement Georgias. After his death, his brother Herbert Ushe suggested the change was intended to conceal his Shona ancestry and present himself as a member of the Coloureds community, possibly for economic reasons. Georgias's relatives claimed they were snubbed by the Mugabe government with regards to Georgias' funeral. The family expressed discontent that the Mugabe government recognized Georgias's second wife Jane and Georgias's children with her, rather than his first wife Manana. They also claimed that Central Intelligence Organisation (CIO) agents forced them to attend the state funeral, which they had intended to boycott. After his death, Manana stated that their marriage produced no children.

Georgias died on 19 December 2015, at the age of 90.

Legacy Everson Mushava, writing for the Standard Newspaper, equated Aguy's self-denial of identity to Ngoni, a character created for a popular novel in the Shona language.
