“We should stop scoring own goals. We should actually fix the roads.” - Rufaro
🚩 Overregulation, poor infrastructure and bad policy continue to hold back Zimbabwe’s tourism sector.
Reflections on the “good old days” in investment banking - when the team could leave Harare at 5pm after closing a good deal and arrive in Kariba just 3 hours later for a weekend getaway.
Today, bad roads and limited accessibility are making travel unnecessarily difficult.
“The tourism sector can benefit from Zimbabweans who are here in Zimbabwe: domestic tourism.” - Ranga

Illegal immigration becomes combustible when the nation turns itself into a welfare state. It becomes worse when the state declares healthcare and primary education to be “rights”, then acts surprised when people from poorer neighbours arrive to claim those rights. This is especially true when the country is richer than those around it. Generosity is easy in theory. In practice, it must pass through the clinic queue, the classroom, the taxpayer and the Treasury.
It is also a serious misreading of the public mood to accuse poor citizens of ignorance or xenophobia whenever they raise the issue. They may lack the polished language and be incoherent in their logic, but they understand scarcity better than most policy people. Across the world, illegal immigration has become a top three political issue precisely because ordinary people experience the pressure first, in hospitals ( look at the NHS waiting time), schools, housing, wages. The clever classes notice it only when an election goes wrong.
From my vantage, South Africa’s answer is a combination of harder economic realism and cleaner public finance. First, do away with BEE so industry can grow, hire, expand and absorb more young people. Second, illegal foreigners who use public services must pay full price for them. Local clinics should be allowed to retain those revenues and expand their own services. At present, they depend on a bankrupt fiscus and are then expected to perform miracles with empty cupboards and long queues.
South Africa will not solve this by meddling in its neighbours’ politics. Intervention is expensive, messy and full of unintended consequences. America can afford that kind of intervention. South Africa cannot. The real solution is economic growth: build industry, create jobs and give the poor a path to paying their own way through life. Welfare incentives poverty, weakens the citizen, attracts fiscal pressure from beyond the border and eventually bankrupts the state it claimed to civilise.

Hon. Adv. F.T. Mhona, Minister of Transport and Infrastructural Development, today toured the construction works of the new Cloverleaf Interchange at the intersection of Harare Drive and Joshua Mqabuko Nkomo Road (Airport Road).
The transformative project forms part of Government’s ongoing efforts to decongest one of Harare’s busiest transport corridors, improve travel times to R.G. Mugabe International Airport, and enhance road safety for all road users.
Addressing journalists during the tour, Hon. Adv. Mhona described the project as a long-awaited development milestone, applauding His Excellency, President Cde. Dr. E.D. Mnangagwa, for championing infrastructure modernisation and development across the country.
The Minister also reaffirmed the Ministry’s commitment to accountability and delivering quality infrastructure that directly benefits citizens. Upon completion, the Interchange project will pave the way for the development of 10 additional interchanges from Glenara and associated routes, significantly improving traffic flow within the capital.
Hon. Adv. Mhona was accompanied by Permanent Secretary Eng. J.P. Makumbe, Heads of Parastatals, and other senior Government officials.

This is a dishonest take. He writes,
"Zimbabwe does not lack political participation. It lacks a system capable of converting that participation into stable, institutional governance"
He ignore simple truth to push a warped narrative. Zimbabwe has a military dictatorship, one that has existed since 1980. The issue is simply that ZANU PF rules thru testicles no matter the system. No alternative system will work until military dictatorship dies or is killed. So, the most stable way the power of a military hegemony declines is through its own metamorphosis via succession.
This is the primary reason Mnangagwa must go - just so Zimbabweans get a taste of peaceful transition even in a military state. This, in the hope that change will erode grip over time or that when nature happens the existing system is unconsolidated therefore inclined to tilt towards a democratic transition.
The constitution has provided an off-ramp through the term limits. The purpose is to teach Zimbabweans that offices are permanent but occupants come and go. That alone is mind-shaping.
So, every Zimbabwean must reject CAB3 because it entrenches a military dictatorship. That's the biggest reason.
The dishonest pseudo-intellectuals then try to elevate parliamentary selection clause as justification to vote yes but even if you interrogate that change you realize again that it is a plot and ploy to entrench Mnangagwa's and military's perpetual grip on power
First, the reason a parliamentary election of a president would make sense is where each MP represents an approximate equivalent number of voters. Currently, an opposition MP represents 33 000 voters while a ZANU PF one represents 21 000. Their vote is considered equal. It means any ZANU PF candidate in the next election needs about 41% of popular vote to be president. An opposition leader would require at least 59% of voters.
This is highly skewed and stems again from a ZANU PF controlled electoral commission which refused to comply with the constitutional requirement to make constituencies of approximate equal size by ensuring that no one constituency is more than 20% bigger than any other.
In the same CAB3, they want to move the delimitation powers to another obscure entity that is controlled by the military system.
So, in essence Zimbabwe needs truly democratic elections run by a truly independent ZEC where the is no military cohesion. We have not had these and have not been accorded that opportunity.
Instead of finding weird justifications for this ammendment, just give pple the opportunity to vote without fear. No one will kill each other for that. It is Mnangagwa and ZANU PF that is standing between people and their happiness.

Rethinking Presidential Elections: Why an indirect system may serve Zimbabwe better By Glen Mpani I HAVE closely followed the debate around Constitution of Zimbabwe (Amendment No. 3) Bill with keen interest. Working in political campaigns, I have reflected deeply on what the Bill’s proposed changes mean, not just for governance, but for how campaigns are designed, executed, and won. That perspective has shaped my thinking in ways I did not initially anticipate. There is a fundamental question at the heart of Zimbabwe's political future: how should a president be chosen?

This video has been extremely painful to watch for any sane Zimbabwean. It has made Zimbabweans the butt of jokes across the region, especially in Southern Africa and other African countries on social media.
I have written extensively about the father of this child, Paul Tungwarara, who is President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s so-called Presidential Investment Adviser. You see, this is what shows just how detached President Emmerson Mnangagwa has become from the realities of the lives Zimbabweans are living and how ordinary citizens actually feel about him.
I do not know whether his intelligence services are failing to give him the correct information, whether he receives the correct information and simply ignores it, or whether this is now a reflection of a deeply dysfunctional system in which people around him are too afraid to tell him the truth.
What is clear is that a cartel of opportunists like Paul Tungwarara has formed around him, abusing proximity to power while lacking the emotional intelligence to understand what should and should not be done in public.
They think these comical stunts are pleasing him, when in reality they are humiliating him, destroying his image, and ensuring that no meaningful legacy remains behind him.
You cannot go to one of the biggest hospitals in Zimbabwe and humiliate nurses by asking them to dance for US$100 as if they are beggars. It is degrading and insulting in a country where healthcare workers are already suffering because of economic collapse and poor governance.
It does not end there. Paul Tungwarara’s daughter, Tinotenda Tungwarara, went to the Mbudzi Interchange in Harare, threw around US$500, and asked desperate Zimbabweans to scramble for the money.
People went because they are suffering. They have been pushed into abject poverty, humiliation, and economic desperation by years of economic failure under President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s government.
This is precisely why many Zimbabweans are rejecting any attempt to extend the Constitution to give him an extra two years in office.
If Zimbabwe had a functioning economy, if citizens had jobs, dignity, decent salaries, and functioning public services, people would not care much about political manoeuvres. Across Africa, citizens tolerate many things from politicians as long as their quality of life is improving or at least stable.
But this is different. This is public humiliation of citizens by people connected to power.
And if somebody close to the President is reading this, please whisper this into his ear that the people around him are damaging him politically every single day with these idiotic and comical antics. If there is ever an attempt to remove him from office, these actions are creating the emotional atmosphere that would make citizens support such a move.
It is almost as if the people around him are deliberately creating a body of evidence to justify his political downfall. Nothing destroys a leader faster than surrounding himself with arrogant people who mistake public suffering for entertainment, and who are detached from public opinion.
As for these nurses, journalists cannot continue writing about these things forever. We do not have an opposition or a political opposition leader, so we have reached a point where Zimbabweans need to use their own heads and decide what kind of society they want to live in. If nurses are prepared to be abused and humiliated like that, then they have become part of the problem.
A society that normalises the humiliation of professionals, especially healthcare workers who are already working under terrible conditions, has much deeper problems than it is prepared to admit.
At some point, you also have to reflect on what some South Africans have been saying, that Zimbabweans have chosen a timid path of enduring abuse and humiliation. I do not think that in any normal society people would be made to dance like that for crumbs, it is deeply dehumanising.
There comes a point where people must ask themselves difficult questions about what they are prepared to tolerate and why they continue tolerating it.
The excruciating level of unsophisticated behaviour is shocking. Chibharanzi chaicho.
I cannot believe that a state with intelligence services would allow something like this to happen publicly. The level at which President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s rule has sunk is absolutely staggering.
I know there are people inside that government who fully understand exactly what I am saying, that this has now reached a point where the entire country is being embarrassed and humiliated by these antics. Zimbabwe is being laughed at across the region, on the continent, and beyond.
And the frightening part is that a President who is supposed to be the first citizen of the country, either cannot understand, is failing to understand, or has completely lost the capacity to understand that this is wrong. That is what makes this situation so alarming.
I want to speak directly to President Mnangagwa. If any one of your soldiers were to decide to go into the streets and move against you because of this behaviour, which you have failed to curtail and stop, I want to assure you, sir, that the majority of Zimbabweans would support such a person.
I do not know whether that is what you want, or whether you understand that things have now sunk that low, from the gutter into the sewer.
And to all the people who are behaving like this, humiliating Zimbabweans, making them dance for trinkets, putting money under the interchange and asking people to go and look for it, preying on their poverty, the abject poverty that has been induced by your actions, I want to assure you that when the day comes that the President is no longer there, you will be dragged into the streets.
Some of you will face brutal consequences, and unfortunately, many Zimbabweans will celebrate because of your behaviour and the humiliation you have subjected people to.
You are not the first people to have access to state money, and you will not be the last. Across the continent, there are many people with access to state resources, but they are far more sophisticated than you are. They understand how to behave, how to carry themselves, and how not to embarrass their principal and dehumanise suffering citizens.
When elites begin turning citizens’ suffering into entertainment, they should never forget that history has a brutal way of eventually humiliating those who humiliate others.
