According to Bonhoeffer's Theory, stupidity is a form of moral laziness, where individuals and societies choose conformity and moral acceptance over critical thinking and personal responsibility.

@DeptCommsZW @edmnangagwa Hakuna chinonzi Zimbabwean fabric. Most of that fabric we call African attire was designed and produced in India, China, Europe and Indonesia for the African market

H.E. President @edmnangagwa chairs the weekly Cabinet meeting at his Munhumutapa Offices. Today, the Cabinet meeting is conspicuously marked by the absence of western suits and ties and in their stead, rich cultural display of the Zimbabwe Fabric. His Excellency the President, Dr Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa, together with the entire Cabinet, will throughout the month of May dress in Zimbabwe’s National Fabric during every Cabinet sitting as the nation marks its Culture Month. The decision by His Excellency, the President to wear Zimbabwe’s National Fabric during Cabinet sittings throughout Culture Month resonates with, and will culminate in the broader continental celebrations of Africa Day on 25 May. The development reflects Government’s commitment to promoting Zimbabwean identity, heritage, unity and cultural pride through the preservation and celebration of indigenous traditions, values and artistic expression. Culture Month, observed annually in May, is a national programme dedicated to celebrating Zimbabwe’s diverse cultural heritage. The commemorations are spearheaded by the National Arts Council of Zimbabwe in partnership with the Ministry responsible for Sport, Recreation, Arts and Culture. The month is commemorated under the broader recognition that culture is central to national identity, social cohesion and economic development. Identity plays a key role in national development. We should all believe that it’s us and it’s our country to participate progressively and meaningfully in national programmes. Activities held during the period include traditional dance performances, exhibitions, language preservation programmes, culinary showcases, music festivals, poetry, visual arts displays and discussions on heritage preservation. The Culture Month also coincides with global commemorations linked to cultural diversity and heritage preservation. Zimbabwe’s National Fabric is a specially designed cloth that embodies the country’s history, values, aspirations and national identity. The fabric incorporates colours and symbols inspired by the Zimbabwean flag, heritage motifs and African artistic expression, making it a distinctive representation of national identity.

‼️It's bad out there guys! Strong winds taking down big trucks with ease. Please don't take chances. Parts of Western Cape, Riversdal, Ceres, Worcester and others, Eastern Cape in PE and other areas and KwaZulu-Natal at Van Reenen on N3 are affected.

Cape Town weather 🥺🥺🥺... Yoooo this is really bad

I was on a train in Tokyo. We stopped between stations. Announcement in Japanese, then in English: "We apologize for the delay. We will resume shortly." The delay was maybe 3 minutes. Not a big deal. When the train started moving again, another announcement: "We sincerely apologize for the delay. We were stopped for 3 minutes and 20 seconds. This is unacceptable. Thank you for your patience." Three minutes and twenty seconds. They measured it exactly. And called it unacceptable. When I got off at my stop, there were station staff on the platform bowing and handing out delay certificates. I took one out of curiosity. It was an official document stating that the train had been delayed by 3 minutes and 20 seconds, signed and stamped. The staff member said in English "for your employer. So they know the delay was not your fault." I said I'm a tourist, I don't need it. He looked confused. "But the delay affected you. You deserve an apology." Three minutes. They were treating a three-minute delay like a major incident. Later I mentioned this to a Japanese friend. They said "oh yes, delay certificates are normal. Trains are supposed to be exactly on time. If they are late, they must apologize." I said three minutes isn't late, it's nothing. My friend said "in Japan, three minutes is late. On time means on time. Not approximately on time." They said the train company probably investigated why there was a 3-minute delay. "They will find the cause and fix it so it doesn't happen again." I kept the certificate. It's framed in my apartment now. A reminder that somewhere in the world, people care about three minutes. © 6IX.

@PoliceZimbabwe I thought that statement was to clarify the correct position and progress regarding the Doug Coltart assault case?

The Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) has not issued any official press statement regarding updates on the alleged assailants of Douglas Coltart. Members of the public are advised to disregard any circulating statements purporting to be from the ZRP, as some individuals are deliberately spreading false and misleading information using fake ZRP press releases. The police are fully aware of these activities and investigations are currently underway to identify the people responsible for creating and distributing the fake statements. The public is urged to rely only on official communication channels for accurate information. The law will take its course against anyone found responsible for publishing or circulating false information, regardless of where those individuals are located.

If over 25 000 fans attended the Harare Deby saying each person pays $5 x 25 000 that is $ 1 250 000 made on a single game and the price for winning the Castle PSL is $125 000 then the league should be closed because it doesn’t make any sense

@nickmangwana They protest against poor salaries, then they are given food hampers. That's a mockery

Have you ever listened to music from Plumtree? I’m convinced those guys record using stolen instruments—they play so fast because they want to finish the song and vanish before the owners show up! 🏃‍♂️💨🎸

Thomas Mapfumo made legendary music for 50+ years. And haana kana ONE love song😳 That’s the most based flex in music history. 🙌🏽

Every time you fill up in Zimbabwe, you pay a man the president calls his closest ally. You have no choice. It is the law. Ever wondered why Zimbabwe's blended fuel costs more per litre than importing pure, unblended petrol? Ever wondered why there is only one company licensed to supply the ethanol that every fuel retailer in the country is legally required to buy? Did you know it is now a criminal offence to sell pure petrol in Zimbabwe and that a single man's company is the only legal beneficiary of that ban? Did you know that ARDA, a state authority, your authority, handed over more than 20,000 hectares of public land and received just 10% of the resulting company? Did you know the man who took the other 90% has 326 fraud charges to his name, a UN Security Council citation, and a history of US and EU sanctions? Did you know that the land reform programme took farms from white owners to resettle Black Zimbabweans, and that those same Black Zimbabweans are now being evicted to grow sugarcane for one man's monopoly? And did you know his name has appeared beside Emmerson Mnangagwa's since 1998 through the DRC, through sanctions, through a R40 million plea deal? This is the Rautenbach Files. This is Green Fuel. A statutory monopoly. A criminal ban on competition. Six land allocations. One relationship. And a price every Zimbabwean motorist pays at every pump, every time. 🧵 16 posts.

A national curriculum does not require a single exam board. The Zimbabwe School Examinations Council Act empowers Zimbabwe School Examinations Council, but does not make it exclusive. Even in England, multiple boards – including OCR (Oxford, Cambridge and RSA Examinations, AQA -Assessment and Qualifications Alliance), Pearson Edexcel, CCEA - Council for the Curriculum, Examinations & Assessment) etc operate under one framework. Alignment is possible without eliminating choice.
