Today I celebrate my maternal grandmother. After my mother’s back, hers is the second back that carried me. We call her different names, Gogo Murungu, Gogo Shamwari or Gogo Gulu. She calls herself Foreigner Girl (pronounced Foreener)🥰. This is because of the German blood in her.
She turned 95 today. Here is to more life to Granny May.

Doc, you’re doing powerful work educating people. After 2 decades in the diaspora, I’ve seen the West slowly turn to our traditional, organic foods—because processed diets are proving harmful and nutritionally lacking. Many diseases trace back to what we eat. I hope our people recognise this value and hold on to our own food systems.

He taught us well Pa UBH .
Housed a lot of Doctors in his houses 🏘️
Mentored a lot of young Drs and always told us it was possible because he did it !
What a giant he was. Medically and financially astute!
Rest in peace Boss G !
The medical fraternity will miss you 😢
Your patients will miss you ! 🥹
The end of an era .

I googled the price of @MemoMakanika’s gadgets.
Over $10,000 worth of tools stolen,
from a woman who wakes up every day to FIX cars and earn honestly.
Not a politician.
Not a tenderpreneur.
A mechanic.
Zimbabwe will humble you.
You can do everything right,
learn a skill, invest in your tools, mind your business, and still get punished for it.
Because somewhere out there,
a thief just got promoted
and the victim got demoted to zero.
@PoliceZimbabwe please find the culprits.

@TheLifeZoomer @hbanhire Bro your perspective on life is next level—really appreciate it. Keep writing 🙌 How’s the West Coast? East Coast is 👌🇦🇺

Many in the comments are rightfully asking if I forgave my father:
Let me address that this way:
When you grow up without a father.
Zero memory of him even calling you “Son”,
No tangible memory of you even receiving a Lolly or even a mere hug from him except word that he is your father
Truth is, you can’t miss what you never experienced. I didn’t grow up with a concept of a father, so forgiveness isn’t even the battle.
Understanding is.

I met my father for the first time at 14. Before that, he was just, a concept. My parents separated when I was under 5, so I have zero memory of him in my childhood. 1988,mum took us to Lusulu, Lupane to meet him and also to meet Grandma. That was also the first and last time I met my paternal grandmother. The visit? Awkward. He had another wife and 4 kids. To be fair, they treated us well. We played, ate, laughed, no issues there. But when he called me? I would freeze. Couldn’t say “Baba.” The word felt foreign. I’d just walk up and stand there like I’m waiting for further instructions 😅 He’d ask, “Kungani ungasabeli kanti?” (Why don’t you answer?) How do you explain that the word “Baba” never lived in your mouth to your own father?🤷🏽♂️😀 Fast forward - Form 4. Mum could only afford 3 subjects. I needed 7. From memory - total sum required was around ZW$400. That included other associated exam registration fees. She wrote to him for help. His reply? “I have other kids here that I have to look after.” The tone in the letter was not nice at all. Mum made the mistake - left letter on the bed. Read it while she was at work. That line - still echoes. I almost missed my O’levels. Deadline passed. Got a 2-week grace period. I still studied all 7 like the money was guaranteed. (Delusion or faith - You decide 😅) Last day of the deadline, money showed up. My mum’s cousin brother stepped in. I wrote all 7 subjects - grateful. But I also watched my mum struggle to pay that money back later. Painful to watch. She eventually did. Now here’s the funny part, Today in family WhatsApp groups, when contributions are needed, people act like we all started life on the same level 😅 Also my dad is still alive. That word “baba” still a strange concept.😭 Meanwhile I’m there remembering: “Some of us almost didn’t even write O’levels, please be gentle” 😂 Life looks stable now. But I know how thin that line was. Sometimes survival isn’t about strength, it’s just one person showing up at the right time. Be honest: what’s one moment in your life where things could have gone completely left, but didn’t? 👇

@jahman_adamski Chaizvo! Who’d have thought these two would get such attention at such crucial times of our lives🤔 Do we even grasp the Machiavellian playbook of a dictator—this is deep psychological warfare on the masses 🙆♂️

@DMwonzora Creating the impression of robust debate, this one. Conveniently, the system will point to these unprincipled voices as “proof” the 90-day consultations were done. Complex system, simple tricks.

@nelsonchamisa With all due respect sir, I’m struggling to follow your position. A few clarifying questions:
• Who is your intended audience here?
• When you’ve participated in elections, which governance framework are you operating under?
• Are you suggesting the issue is the absence of a constitution, or the failure to uphold an existing one?
• Do you consider how your messaging is perceived, particularly its timing, which may come across as an attempt to pacify rather than address concerns?
Many Zimbabweans are fatigued by what feels like “wonderland” politics. I say this as someone who has long admired your stance, but your recent messaging raises genuine questions about your commitment to meaningful change.

@begottensun I must say—you’re one of the few who shoots straight and actually lands on target most times. The sadza eaters won’t like it though 🤣🤣

Good morning. Ai agents have democratised app development. They will keep getting better. Heads up:
Zimbabwe does NOT need another Taxi Hailing App
Tinder and Grindr already work in Zim and therefore does NOT need another dating app.
Zim doesn’t need an alternative to AirBNB or Bookings
Just cos you can doesn’t mean you should build your “idea” unless you have a real use case and business behind it.
Before you prompt your version of UberEats, first get all the restaurants to sign up, get your logistics in order … the app is NO Longer the bottleneck. It’s now the cheapest part.
