Pinned. It is not surprising that the language used by both Mwonzora and Mnangagwa finds commonality in the notion of “responsible opposition”. Arguably, Mnangagwa and ZANU PF also see themselves as a “responsible ruling party”.

@Mr_Okays @DMwonzora Recalled in 2020 under MDC Alliance. Came back in 2022 under CCC. Mwonzora recalled her and others with his MDC T badge.

Wow!! @DMwonzora recalled this Susan Matsunga from parliament in 2020, but in 2023 Chamisa brought her back in. Now here she is. People are pretenders in this world.

Current CCC MP for Budiriro North Constituency. She was recalled from Parliament in 2020 as Mufakose MP under the MDC Alliance. She bounced back under the CCC banner. During her two-year absence, she was cooking and selling sadza in Mufakose. Nzara yakashata.

@freemanchari @MakomboreroH Brain drain has not only crippled the industry, but has also dealt a severe blow to the democratic movement. Meanwhile, the regime is all too happy to issue passports at whatever exorbitant fee desperate citizens are willing to pay.

Unfortunately folks will rewrite history and fail to be accountable for the issues we are witnessing today. Over the years, people rose through the ranks of MDC through stepping on others and smearing genuine cadres until the bulk of them chose to walk away and live their lives away from the toxicity of the "struggle". By the time we got to the GNU a lot of genuine cadres who had given their all were cleared. Most of them became academics or left for the Diaspora. The gaps they left were filled by untested people - some good, some horrible. By the time we got to 2018, most of the cdes I had worked with since 2001 were on the sidelines which meant the base of MDC-18 was relatively a coalition of the old-of-2008 and the post-2013 crop with different views on how the struggle is executed. The Khupe incident remains a very bad chapter in MDC's history. It set a very bad base for the MDC-2018. But again, it was an opportunity not only for NC but for a lot of pple to rise on the back of stepping on other people or outmanouvering others. Again, when Mwonzora left (Which I still think was avoidable if egos were not the primary factor) it was an opportunity for people to rise. All this meant, the opportunities fell on untested people most of whom were mere opportunists with little commitment to the real struggle for change. By 2022, the mantra was - The NEW! CCC was born. The pre-2018 MDC remnants existed mostly at the benevolence of NC. There was a new crop. A crop that generally had no understanding of the historical non-commercial execution of the struggle. The struggle shifted from being radically ideological to purely theological. The struggle lost its bearings! By the time Tshabangu erupted, there was really nothing to defend in CCC. There were no stockholders. CCC had sympathisers not members. Most of those who viewed themselves as stakeholders were folks born and bred in environments that believe God will intervene, all they needed to do is kneel/pamabvi/emadolweni. The crew that were deployed in councils and parliament via berekamwana, most of them had zero history in the previous struggles that actually had a resistance factor in them. It was an opportunity for survival. They had no issue licking the side where their bread is buttered. So, what have we learnt? - History is more important than today - Until the stomach is challenged, the heart remains a mystery - There is a reason the body does not kill normal bacteria (flora) in the gut or vagina - Prayer must not get in the way of swords, they can co-exist but each knowing their purpose. #NOTO2030 Ndatenda

@narendramodi A terrorist friend.

Received a call from my friend President Donald Trump. We reviewed the substantial progress achieved in our bilateral cooperation in various sectors. We are committed to further strengthening our Comprehensive Global Strategic Partnership in all areas. We also discussed the situation in West Asia and stressed the importance of keeping the Strait of Hormuz open and secure. @POTUS @realDonaldTrump

@zeustheman05 @BeansRobson "Colonial elites built mainly for their small minority. Likewise, our current leaders serve a narrow elite. Yet ordinary Zimbabweans stand out, chasing education and progress with relentless effort and resilience, despite severely limited resources.

@T_Chakoroma @BeansRobson Don't forget that we're comparing with the colonial era. Efficiency may not be 100%, but things have drastically improved There are schools close by in the rural areas I've been to No, public schools are clearly affordable in Zimbabwe. The elite go to private schools, not govt

Robert Mugabe built more schools than any leader in African history. He also destroyed the economy that was supposed to pay for them. Legacy is complicated.

@zeustheman05 @BeansRobson This clearly demonstrates that our government has neglected rural areas in favour of urban centres. The so-called government has built schools, but many of them cater primarily to the elite, as they remain unaffordable for the ordinary citizen.

@T_Chakoroma @BeansRobson That is not unfortunate. Zimbabwe has almost 20 universities and people are not limited to their provinces of origin Mash west also has CUT only We need to acknowledge the progress that has been made

@BeansRobson @zeustheman05 I clearly said majority of rural schools. Government centered in building school in towns. Our largest population is in rural areas that our government neglected. Unfortunately the whole of Mashonaland East have Marondera University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology only.

@T_Chakoroma @zeustheman05 That’s very commendable. I do not have anything against that. My question is, are you saying all the schools and universities built post independence were funded by parents from their own pockets?

@zeustheman05 @BeansRobson This is Guyu secondary school. Vabereki started building those 2 blocks 30 years ago. Updated those two blocks are not fully finished. Vabereki varikutoremerwa kusvika pawasvika for 30 years. It's not a private school, but government record it's theirs.

@T_Chakoroma @BeansRobson Hold up, your parents were building schools with whose money?

@zeustheman05 @BeansRobson Their money and their labor.

@zeustheman05 @BeansRobson Majority of rural schools were built by parents. There was building fund which was paid per child. Zvidhina vaiforoma wega and all other materials.

@BeansRobson This is Guyu Pri School, built around 1962/5. Our parents told us that our grandparents built this the same way they build after independence. The original classroom blocks, which i saw, we were told they had thatched roofs then. Zanu pf adopted that system from White gov't.

A genuine question. If our parents had the full capacity to build schools entirely independently, why weren't they doing so before 1980? What changed? What changed was a government that removed the legal and structural barriers Rhodesia had deliberately constructed to prevent exactly that. The policy created the possibility. Is that not so?

@BeansRobson Our parents did just participate or what you call contribution. They fully built school without anything from the government that comes and claim it theirs.

it's often the norm that governments build things through people. That's not disingenuous. That's how construction works. I don't think OUR parents' contribution doesn't erase the policy that made it possible. It actually illustrates it. Yes, their participation is admirabe. But the policy framework, the teacher training programme, the curriculum, the funding allocation, the political will to prioritise Black education after decades of deliberate exclusion under Rhodesia...That was government. That was Mugabe's administration. My own father returned to high school only after independence in 1980, when Mugabe's government opened education to Black Zimbabweans who had been excluded or displaced. He had worked in a mine after Grade 7 because Rhodesia had no further use for his education. I won't pretend it wasn't real because the legacy became complicated later.

@SimplyMdawini @hbanhire Don't delete the current status.

The context. The bus dropped me off at Mbare Musika bus terminus in Harare at 5 am. I was in Harare to get one of those instant ePassports. Mbare is a (very) "low income" area in Harare. It looks very bleak. I took some photos (some of which I deleted because nah...too sad man).

@Keir_Starmer The Strait was open before 28 February. Tell your alies who were imposing tariffs to evey nation not to close the closed Strait.

The ongoing closure of the Strait of Hormuz is deeply damaging. Getting global shipping moving is vital to ease cost of living pressures. The UK has convened more than 40 nations who share our aim to restore freedom of navigation. This week the UK and France will co-host a summit to advance work on a coordinated, independent, multinational plan to safeguard international shipping when the conflict ends.

This is rubbish in which i wasted my time reading.

@VMusinachirevo @MadzivaNehemiah Music of that generation was absolutely tremendous and unmatched.

Who is the greatest musician to ever emerge in South? I definitely think it must be BRENDA FASSIE! What about you, who do you think is?

@Laque_davis Fools who were happy with Amendment (No. 2) Act, 2021, significantly alters 2013 constitution by centralizing power in the President by removing the "running mate" clause for Vice Presidents, allowing the President to appoint them directly rather than through election.

They were congratulating each other when one of them stole a shame election deligitimized even by SADC. FAZ was doing exactly what Mudenda did with the fake consultations! When exactly did these characters start respecting "one man one vote?" ZanuPF will always choose ZanuPF.
