𝗜𝗦 𝗦𝗧𝗥𝗜𝗩𝗘’𝗦 𝗠𝗢𝗡𝗘𝗬 𝗛𝗜𝗦? 𝗕𝗜𝗟𝗟𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗜𝗥𝗘𝗦 𝗔𝗥𝗘 𝗦𝗘𝗘𝗡 𝗕𝗬 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗜𝗥 𝗜𝗠𝗣𝗔𝗖𝗧, 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗧𝗔𝗟𝗞. Hopewell, the debate about whether Strive is a billionaire should not be measured by what is allegedly in his bank account or the value of his shares. It should be measured by the number of feathers the eagle drops or his impact on the economy and the nation. For example, when Strive allegedly became a billionaire from a cellular network in Zimbabwe between 2000 and 2010, Zimbabwe’s economy contracted from $8.8 billion to $7.1 billion. Zimbabwe had no fuel, government was broke, hospitals had no medicine, inflation broke world records, and the nation had no infrastructure. Zimbabwe became a laughing stock under the rise of this so-called billionaire. But when Kuda Tagwirei’s company Sakunda became the biggest company by revenue in Zimbabwe, he supplied Zimbabwe’s fuel needs, fuel queues ended, and government entrusted him with control of the fuel pipeline because it couldn’t afford to run it and the pipeline carried 1.5 billion liters of fuel a year since. He formed an investment bank, bought the biggest banks, and funded government infrastructure programmes (roads and dams) and food production, which has now made Zimbabwe wheat self-sufficient. Through Tagwirei’s rise to becoming a billionaire, he invested and reinvested, ensuring fuel, food, and capital supply. This built a vibrant economy that attracted investment and led to Zimbabwe’s reindustrialisation—now hosting Africa’s largest steel mill, lithium processing plant, tobacco processing plant, and waste-processing plants. He even funded the legal fight against sanctions, that contributed to the removal of Executive Order sanctions. This, in turn, created more Black millionaires in construction, supported by banks controlled by Tagwirei and his associates. As a result, from 2010 to 2025, Zimbabwe’s economy grew from the $7 billion Strive left it at while he was getting rich, to $53 billion. We can feel that Zimbabwe has a Dangote- or Rothschild-type billionaire influencing the economy with Tagwirei. None of this happened when Strive was the only Black billionaire in Zimbabwe, hence many speculate that his money is not his but it belongs to western handlers. It is similar to how Nigeria now has the biggest oil refinery in Africa because Dangote, a billionaire, invested in it—creating more industry in Nigeria and in turn more millionaires, and more billionaires. How many Black millionaires were created in Zimbabwe while Strive was becoming a billionaire? Strive was given favourable conditions by government to create a cellular network that made him a billionaire in Zimbabwe and the first Black billionaire in the UK, but we have not seen the benefits. He was effectively given the right to print money, protected by Black empowerment laws that excluded whites and foreign cellular networks from bidding for the same licence, which was ring-fenced for Black Zimbabweans. Had Kuda Tagwirei, Delish Nguwaya or Obey Chimuka been given that same cellular licence — with their home biased investment culture and commitment to funding Zim — where would Zimbabwe be today? They would likely have given us the best cellular network in Africa and created more local tech millionaires from the largesse of that licence. Strive’s footprint and impact on Zimbabwe does not illustrate that he is a billionaire, which is why many question whether the money is truly his or belongs to handlers. I can even say that someone like me, who has no money, has made a bigger impact by contributing to the removal of sanctions — which has injected billions into Zimbabwe’s economy. But this was only possible because “real billionaires” backed our case in court. Now imagine if people like me were to receive the same deals and tenders Strive received — we would turn Zimbabwe into a first-world country because real billionaires make impact -they transform their own.

@LynneStactia You stunning, Well done!

@lesleighch93336 Thank you to His Excellency the President Cde Dr. ED Mnangagwa for peace and unity and both the interior and exterior that you cherish so much

@edmnangagwa Sanctions wat wat when buying 10th Rolls Royce for 400k, All this stupid charade trying to illegally extend your term

Today, I thanked Zimbabweans and the SADC region for standing with us in the fight against illegal sanctions. Despite these unjust measures, we continue to industrialise, modernise, and grow. I launched a new book chronicling our resilience and innovations under the Second Republic. #AntiSanctionsDay #NyikaInovakwaNeveneVayo #Zimbabwe

@FelySMutsakani President ane 10 ma rolls Royce iwe uchiwukura . Chihure ka chakazara mumusoro.

Sanctions are like cancer they destroys No to sanctions No to illegal sanctions

Today, I led a clean-up initiative in Harare, urging citizens to embrace cleanliness as a lifestyle. This approach inspired community members, including local vendors and business owners, to participate in transforming littered areas into cleaner spaces. Supported by various organizations, the effort aimed to not only beautify the city but also promote health and effective waste management. During the event, I raised awareness about the dangers of drug abuse, emphasizing its impact on youth and families. Participants in the clean-up initiative expressed gratitude for the lessons on cleanliness and drug prevention, pledging to maintain these practices in their neighbourhoods. I also highlighted commitment to sustainable environmental practices and community well-being as this aligns with my role as Environment Patron and supporter of the Global Zero Waste Goodwill Declaration.

@ZimFirstLady Nhai amai imi, pls convince your husband kusiya zve 2030 izvi - takakutadzirei chaizvo yenyika imi nemhuri yenyu

Yesterday I launched my School Feeding Programme in Mashonaland West, advocating for discipline and life skills among learners while urging parents to set positive examples. The event took place at Tafara Venice Secondary School, where I prepared meals for thousands of students from eleven schools, serving dishes like sadza rezviyo, mhunga, beans, muriwo une dovi, haifiridzi and roast chicken among others. I also emphasized the importance of education for a prosperous future and encouraged parents to teach essential life skills to their children. I addressed the rising issue of drug and substance abuse, highlighting the establishment of the Angel of Hope Drug Rehabilitation Centre. My efforts aim to foster unity and community strength, and I called for harmony within families. Officials at the event applauded the initiatives, noting the significant benefits for the local community, including food support and educational resources.

@LynneStactia Happy birthday to you,

Today, I honour how far I have come & step into this new chapter with resilience & courage, I was not born to fade, may I live fully & shine boldly….🙏🏽Happy birthday to myself! Cheers 🥂 & Let the celebrations begin! 🥂🍸🍾

@KMutisi @advocatemahere @Cde_Ostallos "The problem is having stupid EDiots, yet they don't know that they are stupid." KMutisi, you are STUPID!!!!

Here is @advocatemahere & @Cde_Ostallos proving to be the not-so-clever folks that they are … They call Dr Tagwirei a Chigananda … & they also call Scott Sakupwanya a Chigananda… Fadzayi & Ostallos seem unaware that Dr Tagwirei’s Sakunda is a huge sponsor of Highlanders… Is it not also a Chigananda Team? So Zviganandas were competing? We have very confused people in the Zimbabwean opposition…. They promote toxic narratives and hatred towards people who are doing good in society… Football is BACK in Zimbabwe thanks to the generous contributions of folks like Scott, Dr Tagwirei, @wicknellchivayo & others…. Instead of mocking them & attacking them, you gotta celebrate the great things they are doing for Zimbabwean football…

@nickmangwana That she isn’t a doctor or PhD has been a settled matter, confirmed by her and the legal position highlighted by Zimche. Muri kurasika papi?

HON. DR. MAVETERA “We have embarked on a number of projects. We are providing cheap data to schools, especially in the rural areas where we come from. We are issuing out Starlink which is a little bit cheaper. Recently, we were in Gokwe, Tshelanyemba and Mawabeni in Matabeleland South. We were giving out Starlink in schools in all those areas. In those areas, they do not have fibre cable, so TelOne internet does not reach them. So, we are supplying Starlink in all areas where there is no fibre.”Senate 11/09/2025

You truly grasp how impressionable some Zimbabweans are when you see the likes of Hopewell Chin’ono daydreaming that an empty head like Gift Ostallos Siziva could ever be President, simply because he throws around oversized words - usually butchered in the process. Honestly, in this day and age, people still getting impressed by maVHOKO? Please, spare us the embarrassment. Zimbabwe deserves opponents with substance, not these lightweight pretenders masquerading as politicians. Here’s the reality check: the only real political game in Zimbabwe - today and in the future - is within ZANUPF. Unless Ostallos and his clueless boss Chamisa find the humility to join the Party, any talk of them occupying State House remains nothing more than a cruel joke. Vana vadiki stereki.

@KagutaMuseveni Please, yoweri, Africa does not need this. Pass the button before it's too late.

@zanupf_patriots Met him recently- he is mentally ill You want to.lie out of everything

Contrary to lies by desperate opposition leaders, Crispen Makedenge enjoying his retirement. The former Assistant Commissioner & CID boss, once in charge of Law & Order in Harare, remains in good health & high spirits.
