@iamAshton

@Merovaeous lol this is probably your dumbest comment ever since I started following you 🤣🤣 super misinformed and it’s a shame but yah as you were my good sir

I keep saying Zimbabwe should focus more and more on cricket. Zimbabwe is good at cricket and I'm pretty sure Zimbabwe can again be a very strong cricketing nation like 90s. It's just a matter of time. As i said earlier, Zimbabwe is a cricket nation.

@EidenDad @ruvarashe52 @2022TheRidge @ruvarashe52

@ruvarashe52 @2022TheRidge Lol, the lady in Mora was 65, she can't go back to work. Read sheriahub.com/cases/zw/casel…

Y'all approach Zimbabwean divorces being guided by real housewives of Beverly Hills. Zimbabwean marriages are out of community of property. Worse of customary marriage. And there is no spousal maintenance unless you are handicapped or to old to go to work.

@DanielSson85 Ok keep telling yourself that .but some of us see right through it

@ashtonash22 Or, i post factual information rather than just vibes. You be you.

This will be rather unpopular with some, however the statstics do not lie. Yes players can improve, but sometimes a player has reached their limit and by the law of averages, will exceed expectations every so often. 🇿🇼 Wessly Madhevere in ODIs Innings - 37 (8 vs associates) Ave - 21.13 Median - 15.00 The median simply removes outliers, upper and lower. This median below his average simply shows he scores lower scores more often with a scattering of higher scores. I recently removed ODI scores from the List A domestic matches to give a better idea if a player was significantly better domestically. Wesley Madhevere I 37 / 🏏 24.40 @ 91 SR ⚪️ 23.97 @ 3.98 Econ Evidence suggests for Wes he is slightly better, but not significantly for a player called a 'national treasure'. The idea of this analysis is to share the factual data that underpins a player. It is runs that wins us matches in the position Wes plays. He will no doubt get another chance in ODIs this summer, with 👀 watching to see if he can improve on his 21.13. 🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼

Do we have houses like this in 🇿🇦?

@Esiejay 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 muncu

No I'm South African. Not African , SOUTH.

@TINNONENE @daddyhope @TINNONENE don’t embrasss your entire clan online 🤣🤣nee is used to mean someone’s birth name before they got married chitepo nee was mahamba

@daddyhope We don't have Chitepo clan names in south africa sir that's why you're reluctant to answer

Yes, there are two South Africans lying at Zimbabwe’s Heroes Acre, Victoria Chitepo, née Mahamba, and Ruth Chinamano, née Rushipha. Victoria Chitepo was a South African born in Durban and went on to become one of Zimbabwe’s senior cabinet ministers after independence. Ruth Chinamano was born in Cape Town, South Africa, and was a legendary and fearless parliamentarian in Zimbabwe’s Parliament. The region’s history is deeply interconnected. Zimbabweans fought in South Africa, South Africans fought in Zimbabwe, families mixed across colonial borders, and liberation movements supported each other long before some of you discovered politics on social media yesterday. Our Vice President, Kembo Mohadi, is Venda, and his family is in both Zimbabwe and South Africa, separated only by a colonial border drawn on a map. That is why some of these shallow arguments about nationality make no sense in southern Africa. Families, cultures, languages and communities existed long before modern borders were created. The Venda people did not suddenly appear because politicians drew lines on paper. One side of the family ended up in Zimbabwe, another in South Africa, but they remain the same people with the same roots, culture and history. They meet in both sides of the border to perform their ritual ceremonies. If we read, we will cure our ignorance. The Ndebele of Zimbabwe were led by Mzilikazi, who came from KwaZulu-Natal and was a military general in Shaka’s army. So to tell somebody whose lineage is traced back to Shaka Zulu that they do not belong is completely idiotic. If people come to South Africa and commit crimes, arrest them, take them to court, and jail them if they are convicted. If people come to South Africa and do not obey the country’s immigration laws, then apply the law accordingly. That is how a functioning society operates. What I disagree with is this blanket Afrophobia where every African is treated like a criminal simply because they are African. Even people like myself, who are in South Africa legally with papers, permits and legal status, are insulted and called names as if our mere existence is a crime. That is wrong. There is a difference between enforcing the law and dehumanising people. A police officer enforcing immigration law is doing his job. A mob insulting every black African foreigner they see is not law enforcement, it is ignorance and hatred disguised as patriotism. You cannot claim to support the rule of law while behaving lawlessly toward people who have obeyed the law

@BulawayoForever Dull

Or just imagine if it was someone from Bulawayo becoming a Mayor in Harare, or a President in Zimbabwe. Already Gukurahundi happened to make sure a Ndebele man never stands a chance on the statehouse. You are damn right ✅️ indeed, but who started it, was it men in Bulawayo?

@thegrxndmxster @SizweLo Mcduffy you need to learn how to read lest you embrass your entire clan.its 67 farms that were covered by bilateral agreements and should not have been part of the reform. 67 only out of over 4000 farms

@SizweLo Is this why they’re also giving back so much land to previous white owners/settlers? So that any influx of them is to inherit the coming wealth😭

Zimbabwe recently became the first African nation to export locally-processed lithium. However, many Zimbabweans would either have not heard about this or dismiss it as a nothingburger because they have been conditioned by Western liberal thought to believe their one and main problem is "corruption" and that all focus should be shifted to “cleaning the country”. For context of how big of a deal this is, what Zimbabwe is doing is widely accepted by historians and economists alike as the primary way to develop a country by moving up the value-added ladder and export finished goods, not raw just materials. By moving from exporting raw ore to processed lithium, Zimbabwe is attempting to break the “resource curse” which has kept many a developing nation from capturing more of the value chain. The people obsessed with fighting corruption are effectively saying that industrialisation doesn’t matter unless the politics is perfect. But the thing is, historically, no nation, from the US in the 19th century to China in the 20th, waited “to fix corruption” before building an industrial base. They built the base, which then created the economic stability which reduced instances of corruption. If you wait for the “corruption” to end before you start processing your own minerals, you might find that even if by some miracle you were able to eliminate all malfeasance, there might be no minerals left to process and you’re just left with the standard neoliberal talking points. Some will say they can walk and chew by focusing on corruption *and* industrialisation. But this misses something extremely crucial about how a country’s capacity to act is a finite resource, and that when a developing nation is told it must reach “Scandinavian levels” of transparency before it can pursue ambitious industrial policy, it often results in institutional paralysis. This is because “fighting corruption” means using up resources on adding layers of bureaucracy, audits, and oversight committees which slows down decision-making, exhausts human capital by funneling the best minds towards compliance, auditing and accounting, instead of science and engineering. Because they’re inundated with neloliberal thought patterns, many developing nations fall into the trap of believing the myth that “clean” government leads to development. In reality, history usually shows the opposite, that it’s industrialisation that creates the conditions for a cleaner government. This may sound counterintuitive, but there are examples all over the place. For instance, the 19th-century US was so corrupt that the wealthiest among them were commonly known as Robber Barons who bought politicians by the dozen. Yet the country built the world’s most powerful industrial base during that exact period. Similarly, all the way in the Far East, South Korea and Taiwan had serious cronyism during their rapid growth phases. But they prioritised industrialisation, and the middle class that emerged from that growth eventually demanded better governance. And, of course, China, which is holding Zimbabwe’s hand through the lithium refining, lifted 800 million people out of poverty while navigating massive corruption scandals, but they focused on building the factories first. This may offend many people’s sensibilities, but from a cold, economic perspective, a “corrupt” state that successfully builds a lithium refinery is still far more productive than a “clean” state that remains a raw-material backyard for the West. As Professor Grieve Chelwa showed in his 2024 paper on the weaponisation of corruption, “anti-corruption” is often used as a tool to hollow out the state. If the state is labelled as inherently “corrupt”, the only “moral” solution offered is to outsource everything to the private sector or foreign NGOs. This effectively prevents the state from ever developing the muscles it needs to lead a national development strategy. In the case of Zimbabwe’s lithium plant, an “industrialiaation-first” approach treats development as a survival imperative. It acknowledges that while corruption is a disease that needs a cure, you don’t stop a starving man from eating just because his hands aren’t perfectly clean. So, for Africans, the beginning of wisdom is understanding that the push for “transparency” is used by foreign actors specifically to prevent African states from forming the kind of State-led development that allowed them to rise so quickly. No country in the Global North became wealthy by being honest first. They became wealthy by protecting their industries and moving up the value chain which raised the capacity to be honest. By processing lithium locally, Zimbabwe is attempting to jump from the raw material rung to the industrial rung. It is a messy, complicated process, and yes, money will likely be lost to corruption. But as Prof Chelwa shows in his paper, the greatest corruption is the neocolonial structure that tells Africa it isn’t “ready” to own its own value chain.

@IanECox Well they are not only those who’s farms were taken that had bilateral agreements are being given back the rest ngoma ndiyo ndiyo 😂😂

Damn straight they should pay back every single white farmer that they stole land and assets from 25 years ago.

@SABCNews If only people would actually open the link on the post to see that these farms were covered by bilateral pacts and should have not been taken .so it’s only 67 out of about 4000 lol

Zimbabwe will return 67 farms seized from foreigners from four European countries covered by bilateral investment pacts, the country’s agriculture minister said, as it seeks to mend ties with Western countries while it battles for debt relief. tinyurl.com/mvx6yz3e

@presmlo10 🤣🤣🤣🤣 why are you lying

How many Zimbabweans know that Robert Mugabe never visited Angola in his 37 tyrinical years because Zanupf, PAC supported Unita. He died without setting his foot in Angola.

@IanECox @CeeMulengah Slow zambian thinkers at it again🤦🏾‍♂️ just do a quick google search on how farming in Zim is hitting record highs who is importing from SA.

@CeeMulengah Some of them moved to Zambia 25 years ago.. and have really helped increase food security levels. Zim loss, Zambia gain

So Zimbabwe chased white farmers so that it would buy maize from white farmers in SA? What was the reason for land grab?

@grok @Handre @PetersonTengen2 @Handre grok has answered you 😂😂 Marxism might be flawed but the stars you mention won’t help prove your point

Zimbabwe tobacco (million kg, TIMB data): 2000: 228 2008: 48 (post-reform low) 2018: 258 2023: 296 2024: 234 (drought) 2025: 353 (record high) Maize (million tonnes, USDA/FAO): 2000: 2.15 2008: 0.53 2017: 2.16 (recent peak) 2023: 1.50 2024: 0.64 2025: 1.82 Tobacco rebounded via smallholder contract farming. Maize remains inconsistent, with frequent imports due to drought and structural factors.

Zimbabwe's commercial farmers produced 200,000 tons of tobacco in 2000. By 2008, after Mugabe's "land reform," output collapsed to 48,000 tons. Corn production fell 60%. The country that once fed southern Africa now imports food. Property rights aren't just legal abstractions; they're the foundation of productive agriculture. When you destroy secure ownership, you destroy the incentive to invest, improve, and maintain capital. Zimbabwean farms didn't fail because of drought or bad luck. They failed because socialism always fails. You cannot redistribute your way to prosperity, only to shared poverty. Will African governments ever learn? Afro-marxism is probably the single most devastating ideology there has ever been in terms of hours of human suffering.

@OliverKeith_zw @afroking_jonty @AdamTheofilatos Be proud of being a model my guy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 anywho as you were …✌🏾✌🏾

@ashtonash22 @afroking_jonty @AdamTheofilatos Maybe your lame self should also stick to being a social media legal expert 😂😂😂😂

Zimbabwe Cricket’s Mosi Oa Tunya International Stadium is starting to take shape well 🙌🏻

@OliverKeith_zw @afroking_jonty @AdamTheofilatos lol

@afroking_jonty @ashtonash22 @AdamTheofilatos It seems some of your mates lost their brains decades ago. Typical of Zimbabweans. Kuda kuita chi Zanu pese pese.

@OliverKeith_zw @afroking_jonty @AdamTheofilatos I am saying stick to modelling and advise on that stuff not cricket

@ashtonash22 @afroking_jonty @AdamTheofilatos Are you suggesting that anyone who has never held a cricket bat shouldn’t comment on the sport, or a stadium? So many words, yet little brains.

@OliverKeith_zw @afroking_jonty @AdamTheofilatos To be fair this is progress just that we are a negative people and some people who have never held a bat in their lives are commenting on the building of a cricket stadium. Personally this is positive progress for once in this Country of ours.

@afroking_jonty @AdamTheofilatos Exactly my thoughts. Another Trabablas sub standard workmanship. 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

#dandaroupdates Chatunga in court, State Prosecutor Lufuno Maphiri says they are more than 90 percent done with the plea agreement but can not proceed today. The matter has been postponed to 24 March. Follow our WhatsApp Channel: whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va…

@kwirirayi You mentioned Blessing as if it’s a cold “fact” yet 1 player doesn’t change the fact that we need to improve on our grassroots team in order to be competitive at Nat level

@ashtonash22 anomaly 🤣🤣🤣 every player who is in the national team right now is developed from grassroots. I mean, actual WTF

For those who put so much currency on playing at an U19 World Cup for a career, just remember that Blessing Muzarabani did not make U19s in 2016. Two years later he was in the Qualifier squad. 8 years after that, team of the T20 World Cup. Also joint fastest to 50 Test wickets with Streak, among many milestones.
