No. Don't force pple to hide their feelings. Let those who cry for her do their thing. Those who were aggrieved have a right to express themselves too. At least for me, she had apologized & I completely forgave her. This may give other pple opportunity for closure too. She was not a saint but she was also not a monster to some pple. Some people have scars and wounds from her direct action. They probably never got a sorry nor closure. The dead are gone, let the living live!

Announcing you won’t shed tears is immaturity. Leadership means knowing when humanity matters more than political grudges, and clearly, you missed that lesson. Maybe that’s exactly why your presidency will remain a speech, not a reality. RIP @lilomatic

Sadly, l have no tears to shed for Linda. We stood with her when she was persecuted by Zanu Pf back then, Mrs Ngarivhume and l, looked after her family when she was in prison. My party Transform Zimbabwe supported her in court. In teturn when she was released,

Harry Maguire, who is English and Northern Irish… … has been demographically replaced in the England World Cup team by an African named ‘Addji Keaninkin Marc-Israel Guéh’ born in Ivory Coast. What’s the point in a ‘national’ football team if someone who is NOT from that nation can join? Maguire should play for England. Guéh should play for Ivory Coast. Common sense. I’m sure Maguire isn’t even allowed to contest this decision because, as his shirt says in the photo below, ‘no room for racism’.

At 2:13AM, my dad got a text from a number he didn’t know. “Please don’t block this number. I just need to say thank you.” He almost ignored it. Thought it was spam. Then another message came in. “You drove me home every Friday night in 2009. You probably don’t remember me.”

FABRICATED AND EDITED AUDIO CLIPS REVEAL A SINISTER MOTIVE It is difficult to comprehend how this was presented as an interview. What is clear is that it appears to be a phone call conversation that is now being deliberately recast out of malice. In that audio, there is a response that mentioned the name of Mr Timba. Clearly, there was a question that had to do with Mr Timba. What was the question? Who introduced Mr Timba into the conversation, and why? That person is not disclosed to us. Who introduced the issue of the new alliance into the conversation, and why? These are the hard questions, because journalism falls short when it does not meet these basic essentials. The response seems very clear that it was about the mandate of the people, but what is not clear is what the question was. All we get is a report that is clearly unrelated to the headline by the Daily News. The question that faces the nation is how to fight illegitimacy in the country and attempts to extend that illegitimacy. That is the conversation, not these sideshows and distractions. What makes it a deliberate matter is that an unrelated issue is now being treated as a Daily News matter. Again, it appears to be a response to a question, but we are not told what it was, and we do not even hear who that person asking the question was. They are doing this to capture snippets they can later use to project malice and manufacture a narrative. The intention is to release them alongside selective headlines so that it appears like a pattern or a scandal, when in reality it is nothing of the sort. This is not about truth. It is about FRAMING. And people must be careful not to confuse edited soundbites with context and reality. This is a coordinated campaign meant to disillusion and detach people from the citizens’ task at hand. The beauty is that the citizens of Zimbabwe are not gullible and cannot be deceived. 19 May 2026 PRESIDENT CHAMISA BUREAU OF COMMUNICATIONS

THE WEIGHT OF BEING WICKNELL The only honest frame for understanding the most scrutinised private citizen in Zimbabwe's post-Mugabe history. In 2008, Zimbabwe was emerging from one of the worst economic collapses outside wartime. Hyperinflation had become so absurd the Reserve Bank printed a one hundred trillion dollar note that could not buy bread. Power generation had collapsed. Foreign capital had vanished. Zimbabwe was, in effect, untouchable. In that same Zimbabwe, Wicknell Chivayo built a company, submitted a bid, and signed the EPC agreement for a 100‑megawatt solar plant in Gwanda. Value: US$172.8 million. At the time, it was the largest independent power project ever awarded to a Zimbabwean‑owned private company. He put his own name on it. Not a shelf company. Not a nominee director. His name. That matters. ──────────────────────── THE LONELINESS OF THE FIRST MOVER ──────────────────────── There is a particular kind of isolation that attaches itself to the man who moves before the crowd. It is not the loneliness of failure. It is the loneliness of being correct too early. Aliko Dangote knows this loneliness. Before he was Africa's richest man – before the Forbes covers and the US$20 billion refinery – he was a Nigerian trader operating inside one of the most opaque, politically saturated business environments on earth. His critics called him politically connected. His defenders called him a visionary. Both were telling the truth. Patrice Motsepe knows this loneliness too. South Africa's first black billionaire built African Rainbow Minerals from a zero base – acquiring loss‑making marginal gold mines that Anglo American had abandoned as uneconomical. His wealth is “directly tied to his political connections with the ANC.” Nobody serious calls Patrice Motsepe a criminal for understanding how post‑apartheid South Africa's capital markets actually worked. Wicknell Chivayo understood how post‑Mugabe Zimbabwe's capital markets actually worked. He understood that in a country where formal procurement had been systematically corrupted for thirty years, the man who could navigate the political terrain was not necessarily the man who was corrupt – he was the man who got the deal done. It is a structural observation. In Nigeria and South Africa, as in Zimbabwe, as in every post‑colonial economy navigating the space between dysfunction and development, political connectivity and visionary investment are not opposites. They are the same thing. ──────────────────────── COURTS AND SELECTIVE MEMORY ──────────────────────── The media record on Wicknell is loud and remarkably selective. What it rarely says out loud is this: He has not been convicted of a single crime in a court of law. In 2018, High Court Justice Owen Tagu acquitted Wicknell and Intratrek of all Gwanda‑related charges. In 2023, the Supreme Court ordered ZPC to honour the original Gwanda contract. The same year, a High Court judge awarded Wicknell US$22 million in his civil suit against ZPC. ZACC, after its own probe, publicly stated it “found no evidence linking Chivhayo to fraud.” Then there is another Wicknell – the one whose story never makes a front page for as long as generosity is not a scandal. The man who has given away hundreds of cars to widows, single mothers, nurses, and young entrepreneurs. The man who has paid over a thousand school fees for families who did not know his name before the payment cleared. Who has donated medical equipment to hospitals treating patients on bare floors. Who has funded funerals for families who had nothing. The most comforting attack is to call it “theatre”. There is a strange pleasure some find in diminishing how big a deal his help is for the people who receive it. If it were theatre, theatre would require an audience that benefits from the performance. The widow who received the keys did not benefit from theatre. She benefited from a car. There is no political capital Wicknell gains from giving. If anything, it injures him. ──────────────────────── WHAT GETS BUILT WHEN THE NOISE STOPS ──────────────────────── There is a version of the Wicknell Chivayo story that has not been written yet, because it has not happened yet. But its shape is visible to anyone who has studied how the figures who came before him eventually resolved their crises – by building something so undeniably real and so obviously beneficial that the conversation around them changed by necessity. Rockefeller became a philanthropist. His foundations funded the eradication of hookworm from the American South, the establishment of the University of Chicago, and public health initiatives across four continents. Dangote did not resolve his political controversy by stepping back from the state or issuing press releases. He resolved it by building the US$20 billion Dangote Refinery – the largest single‑train petroleum refinery in the world – on Nigerian soil, creating over one hundred thirty‑five thousand jobs. When something that large is real and working, the argument about how it was financed loses urgency. The version of Wicknell Chivayo’s story that gets written in five years will be determined by what is built in the next few. If a properly governed, audited, credible Chivayo Foundation channels even a fraction of the energy currently spent on car‑giving into structured, measurable community development – education, healthcare, entrepreneurship – the narrative of generosity becomes impossible to dismiss. If Intratrek builds governance that aligns with serious commercial standards – a proper board, audited accounts, transparent structures – the correspondent banks and international investors currently watching will not trickle in, they will flood in. There will not be enough cameras to capture it, nor enough heads of state angling for association. Capital always follows credibility. Always. The most consequential thing about Wicknell is what he builds next – and whether what he builds next is large enough, real enough, and visible enough to redefine permanently what his name means on this continent. powerlist.africa/the-weight-of-…

Our Sporting Directors will not be comfortable with Xavi, who is a big character. He's like De Zerbi. If you hire them, stay away from his case and let him work in peace or you will definitely clash with him at some point. He's not one you will tell what to do.

Xavi Hernandez side insist Chelsea have made a formative approach and is open to a move to England. However, my understanding is Chelsea are not expected to proceed. Xabi Alonso, Marco Silva and Andoni Iraola all under serious consideration and Xavi, for now, ruled out by Chelsea.
