Born at Rosa Clinic in Chiweshe, Manyika did his primary education at Madombwe and Bare schools. After completing Standard Six at Bare, he attended Kutama College. In 1974, he was arrested for allegedly writing and circulating subversive statements while waiting for his O-level results. He was sentenced to five years in prison, but was released after 18 months under strict conditions. As a result of the incarceration, he could not proceed for Advanced level. After Zimbabwe gained independence from Great Britain, Manyika sat for examinations, during which time he also obtained diplomas in Accounts and Business from the London Chamber of Commerce and Industry. He later studied for a master's degree in International Policy Studies with the University of Bristol in Britain. Manyika joined the Zanu-PF Youth League together with the late Minister of Youth, Gender and Employment Creation, Border Gezi, in 1982. He rose through the ranks, becoming the youngest provincial secretary for administration in 1986. He also worked in different capacities in the government, including that of under-secretary in the President's Office. He worked for the then ministries of Local Government and National Housing and Women's Affairs. He was Minister of Youth Development, Gender and Employment Creation before being appointed as Minister without Portfolio on February 9, 2004.[2] Manyika died in a road accident on 6 December 2008, aged 53, while he was traveling to Gwanda.[3] Days after the accident, Manyika was declared a national hero by the Politburo.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.parlzim.gov.zw/inside.aspx?mpgid=2&spid=8 |title=Parliament of Zimbabwe |accessdate=2008-01-11 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090318145813/http://www.parlzim.gov.zw/inside.aspx?mpgid=2&spid=8 |archivedate=2009-03-18 |df= }} {{Zimbabwe government ministers}}{{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Manyika, Elliot}}{{Zimbabwe-politician-stub}}2. ^"Mugabe rewards loyalists in new Cabinet", New Zimbabwe (zimbabwesituation.com), February 9, 2004. 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2008-12/07/content_10469079.htm|title=Zimbabwe Minister Without Portfolio Manyika dies|date=7 December 2008}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2008-12/09/content_10479412.htm|title=Zimbabwe ruling ZANU-PF postpones national congress |date=9 December 2008}} 6 : 2008 deaths|Road incident deaths in Zimbabwe|Alumni of Kutama College|Alumni of the University of Bristol|Zimbabwean politicians|1955 births |
