@makakaseni ...well we can perhaps say that your perspective is a data point, not a consensus!

@piersmorgan Very

Dreadful performance. So defensive, so boring, so lacking in🔥 or passion. At least look like you want to be Champions, ffs.

@ChifChiduku @bla_bidza ...🤣🤣🤣🤣

@bla_bidza was the two wives part necessary?

From the day I saw Denford Ngadziore sitting next to Local Government Minister Danie Garwe and Monica Mutsvangwa in the aftermath of Budiriro fire; I saw something grotesque about it all. Each time I criticise Mafume, I include him because I know how he has turned Mabelreign into a high density suburbs. At his age he now has two wives and both with large mansions, apa he has never worked a decent job.

@DenfordNgadzio1 @cdesetfree @begottensun Indeed matiro ndemamwe, ese ane mahobi!

@cdesetfree @begottensun

Come on @begottensun stop attacking the custodians of the “Struggle” they are struggling for all of you at the end of the day,isn’t it? That said your question on ownership will not get addressed easily @DenfordNgadzio1 you might have missed a question there,is the property in question yours or not,you only gave information about a well wisher helping with construction but question is do you own this property?

@DenfordNgadzio1 @cdesetfree @begottensun @JamesKuwanda remember our conversation about the opposition in Zim! Now wait for the day someone will open up on the cancerous corruption among the "Cdes" the Zim Civil Society space. Matiro ndemamwe aya Chihwa. Ose ane mahobi.

@kennethmtata Spot on! This explains the devotion some people show toward a certain artist. They treat him as if he is the absolute pinnacle of human achievement.

What “support” means in Zimbabwe—My Memory of Moses Chunga Kenneth Mtata 7 April 2026 One day in 1993, Msaigwa, Vhim, and I went to Rufaro Stadium for a special match: Dream Team A versus Dream Team B. The two sides had been assembled by the then national coach, Reinhard Fabisch. While the match was intended to prepare for an upcoming international fixture against Zambia, it also carried a deeper purpose—to confront a growing public perception. Moses Chunga—affectionately known as Bambo—had not been included in Dream Team A because of a serious knee injuries that even operations in Germany had failed to fully resolve. Yet many Zimbabweans, especially maDembare, insisted he should play. There was a strong longing to see him alongside Peter Ndlovu. The popular phrase at the time captured the national mood: “Regai vana vatambe vose”—let the boys play together. To make his point, Fabisch placed Chunga on the opposing side. Each time Bambo touched the ball—even as he visibly limped—the Musika end of Rufaro erupted in celebration. He was deeply loved. I, also admired him too. In midfield for Dream Team A was Rahman Gumbo, a tough-tackling and uncompromising player. To Chunga’s supporters, Gumbo’s challenges seemed excessive—almost as if he was trying to injure Bambo further. The tension in the stadium thickened. There were still flashes of brilliance from Chunga—clever passes, moments of vision. The football mind remained sharp. But the body could no longer fully respond. Then, from somewhere below us, a quiet voice said, almost reluctantly: “Asi Mose apera mhani!” (But Moses is finished.) Immediately, a man stood up and demanded: “Ati Mose apera ndiani? Ndiani ati Mose apera?” (Who said Moses is finished? Who said that?) Silence fell. Then he added sharply: “Apera ndimai vako wazvinzwa?” (The one who is finished is your mother—do you understand?) The game ended with divided convictions: some were persuaded that Chunga was indeed finished; his ardent supporters insisted he simply needed another chance. (Years later, in a chance encounter when Chunga kindly gave me a lift from Zvishavane to Harare, he confirmed that his injuries could no longer allow him to compete at that level.) As we squeezed into a kombi from Mbare to Fourth with Vhim and Msaigwa, we burst into laughter—but the moment stayed with me. The Moral of the Story In Zimbabwe—and perhaps in many places today—“support” is not always grounded in truth, evidence, or present reality. More often, it is rooted in loyalty, identity, and emotion. To speak an honest word in such a context requires courage—especially when that truth contradicts what people deeply want to believe. Facts alone rarely shift deeply held loyalties. There are forms of support that endure not because they are true, but because they are felt. In such moments, “support” ceases to be about seeing clearly or objectively. It becomes, instead, a refusal to see differently.

@HEBobiScud @Tkzee_27 ...well what do you make of the numerous anecdotal reports, personal experiences, and qualitative studies confirming After Death Communication where the living have interacted with deceased people?

@RexMidzi ...maybe that is why our people always clash with the "investors" from our "all weather friend"!

At my farm I have 3 categories of workers 1. The older ( Madhara ) 2. The women young and Old 3. The young men late 90s and Ma2k MY PROBLEM is the YOUNG MEN The older men , they work , tired but dedicated and generally honest and love their drink after work The women young and older work diligently , focused. Majority of the younger women , married but seem to financially bear the burden of the home Now the YOUNG MEN ! Oh boy they do not like work , they would rather spend time at a little bar called ' kwa Rex ' even during the day if they can escape their foreman's prying eye We had a little ' industrial ' action this last week not for want of salaries but because the young gentleman had a complaint Their spokesperson said they are struggling with working hours , they say they wake up at 6 am , it is far too early especially as we are going towards winter 🤦🏿‍♂️ For context the farm workers start their day at 6 am or earlier depending on work station break at 10 for tea , 1 hour lunch and majority of the workers end their day at 4.30 pm At first I thought it was about the salaries so we pulled out the NEC wage tariff and we all agreed we are slightly above the tarrif on minimum wage. I fast realised that is not the Issue , they came to back to the story : ' We are waking up too early ' they really want to rise a little later and snooze What is happening to our men ?

@WillarShoko @hbanhire @Chetuyachinago @LarryMadowo ...that is a rather simplistic take on the problems affecting Africa!

@Chetuyachinago @LarryMadowo keep posting more when you travel, even post speedtest of the WiFi and how easy it is to transact, and how much better the governments care about their people Africa has one problem and its corruption, everything else is just drama

When will Africans finally outgrow this embarrassing and childish tourist syndrome? An African flies to a European country, sees a shiny building or a fancy train, whips out their phone, and immediately runs to social media to cry, "When will our country have this?!" SPOILER ALERT : those train rides are not free. They are directly subsidized by the missing wealth and uncollected taxes of the developing world. Truth is that, while the rest of Europe was tripping over themselves to aggressively extract African resources by sending gunboats, missionaries, and colonial administrators to do their dirty work, Luxembourg was playing 3D chess. They did not need to get their hands bloody or dirty. Instead, they quietly positioned themselves as the ultimate offshore tollbooth for the wealth being plundered from the Global South. Here is how their white-collar criminal network operates: A massive multinational conglomerate digs up copper in Zambia, pumps crude in Nigeria, or mines cobalt in the DRC Congo. By any standard of fairness, the immense wealth generated from those resources should be taxed locally to build the exact same roads, schools, and train networks we keep drooling over. But the global financial system is rigged. Instead of paying their fair share, that corporation sets up a shell company and often literally just a dusty P.O. Box in Luxembourg. And then through the dark arts of corporate accounting known as "profit shifting" and "transfer pricing," the company manipulates its books. The African subsidiary, the one doing the actual extraction, magically records zero profit. Meanwhile, the Luxembourg P.O. Box records billions. Africa gets the environmental degradation, the exploited labor, and a depleted national treasury. Luxembourg gets the capital. Now, Luxembourg taxes these phantom P.O. boxes just enough to make it look legitimate, pulling in about 5% of their GDP. But that’s just the cover charge. When you factor in the massive ecosystem built to service this racket,the armies of corporate lawyers, wealth managers, auditors, and bankers designing these tax-dodging schemes, it accounts for a staggering 30% of Luxembourg’s entire GDP. Put the math together, and you realize that nearly 40% of their national wealth is a monument to laundered money. It is the most flawlessly executed heist in modern history. They managed to siphon the wealth of a continent without firing a single bullet or toppling a single regime.

@ny_emman ...vanhu vanoba tap yemvura vozosiya solar panel? They won't last an hour!

These Eurpean rail track solar panels wouldn't last a day in Sub-Saharan Africa. I suppose such solutions can only be sucessful if death penalty is introduced on theft & vandalism of public infrastructure.

@TheLifeZoomer I enjoy your story telling!

Someone asked what happened after the wedding: After the wedding, we went to church the next Sabbath like two people reporting for judgment day 😅 We expected side-eyes, whispers, maybe even a small “disciplinary committee reunion.” Instead? Everything was normal. Announcements time: “Let’s welcome our newly wedded SDA couple.” Church: AMENNNN!!! 🔊 Me in my head: “So, what was all the fuss about last week?” 🤣 Just like that, the 5-year censure vanished like airtime after one WhatsApp call. Now, that 5 years wasn’t random. Back in 1996, I was Deputy AY Leader when the pregnancy news surfaced. Before rumours could run faster than kombis, I reported myself. Yes, self-snitching for Jesus. 🙏🏾😂 I stepped down, confessed, and chose to face it head-on instead of disappearing like some people do when life gets hot. Result? Demoted from stage to permanent backbencher status. No singing. No presenting. No mic. Just vibes and silent repentance. For 5 years, I was basically a “spectator Christian.” My saving grace? Apprenticeship job - Sabbath half-day shifts. So I only attended afternoon services. My wife? She carried the full load. Every Sabbath. Pregnant. Same light blue maternity dress for months. Buttons fighting for their lives by month 7 😭 Eventually we upgraded to a 2-piece.( Photo below) Budget said: “This is the final boss outfit.” 😂 Still, she never missed church. Sundays? AY programmes together with a growing bump and growing faith. Most youths showed love. A few tried comedy at our expense. One comment still lives rent-free in my head to this day. We arrived late one time. “Lazo lezi izilima zenkosi” I’m told one youth joked as we approached the church gate. Years later in 2012, we visited the church from New Zealand, same people wanted selfies and vibes. Life is funny like that. Anyway, Elders had two suggestions back then: 1.Go and make things official with her family ✅ 2.Go to court and wed immediately❌ Number 2 didn’t sit right with me. I had already promised her a proper wedding after apprenticeship. That promise wasn’t expiring because of pressure. So we declined. And that’s how we served the full 5-year sentence like disciplined citizens 😅 Fast forward: We finally wed. Next Sabbath - Censure lifted. No ceremony. No announcement. Just gone. Just told “You can go and sing now”. So I went up the front like a listening church member. Back on stage. Back in all 3 singing groups 🎤 (My wife joined hers too, power couple loading 💪🏾) From Hwange - New Zealand - Australia Still serving. Still singing. Still standing. These days? FIFO life means I get ONE proper Sabbath a month to fully plug in. But the prayer remains the same: “God, when the time comes, I’m ready to serve fully. Don’t try to put me through another censure for not keeping the sabbath holy. Its a conscious personal decision. Comfortable with it. Moral of the story? Life will humble you. People will talk. Systems will test you. But if you stand your ground, keep your faith, and honour your word, Even a 5-year “sentence” can end with a standing ovation. Ask me anything, I survived church court and marriage 😅 Picture: Our one and only Maternity outfit. We used it mainly on Sabbaths and other special occasions. END OF EPISODES.

@CMandzo @MurapaG Spot on! The problems on our roads are behavioural

@MurapaG people don’t respect traffic lights

We are not solutions oriented. There is a way to solve this problem. Put traffic lights that can be controlled from a central position, use cameras to collect data, coordinate the cameras to enable traffic to flow for a certain time without stopping for specific lanes

@metsbarmby @maguranyanga Possibly Relative Age Effect which affected the likes of Vardy, VVD, Mirosav Klose and to some extent Drobga!

Bosso find of the Mongameli Tshuma looking smitten in Warriors colours. As we celebrate his breakthrough season at 24,there is a feeling of angst as to how he escaped scouters of U-17,U-20& U-23 teams. It's a sad indictment of the lack of proper structures at junior levels.

Attention @PoliceZimbabwe Urgent intervention is needed in the Harare CBD . This violent individual is threatening people and smashing windscreens of cars when motorists refuse his demands. This is a major safety hazard for the public. Please investigate and remove this individual from the streets before a serious tragedy occurs.

@m_joey_m @JMafume @freemanchari ...visiting 🤣🤣🤣🤣

To be honest Mayor you don’t think, I don’t recall ever when you did in as far as Harare business is concerned. You love driving around in Prados and visiting concubines whilst ignoring the business of Harare. In short, you’re the most useless in the history of Mayors of Harare since times of Smith!

Do you guys ever think of solutions? Solutions that actually help the people?
