@beloved_ruva You can’t imagine what parents had to do bring you up to where you are today . Your sentiments are rather naive I would like to believe.

That girl from Nadia TV said she was raised by a single mother and that she’s hustling to get her mom out of poverty.
Let me say this plainly: whether you’re a single parent or in a two parent household, if your children grow up feeling obligated to fix what you couldn’t, then you failed them as a parent.
Children should help from a place of comfort, not obligation.
If my son ever looks after me one day, it should be because he is settled, fulfilled, and choosing to do so, not because I gave birth to him or struggled to raise him.
That was my responsibility.
No matter how hard it was, it was my duty.
Our job as parents is to free our children, not burden them.
Let them build their own destiny instead of carrying our unresolved struggles on their backs.
We must do better as parents.

@shingaisc1 We were forced to discontinue the VPN service due to its massive expense so it no longer works. There are several free, fast VPN extensions for desktop Epic in the Chrome Webstore you can use though.

@TateMavetera I commend the initiative Minister .. I have a concern about how we can leverage both technology and the current state of the economy to propel e-commerce in Zimbabwe that has been neglected as an employment create and start up promoter. Could we discuss

Being a regional internet and cybersecurity hub is crucial as the Speaker alluded to me mentioning it to SADC Parliamentary Forum, this is the ultimate goal.
4.Sovereignty, and the capacity to manage networks and content are not debatable and as such must not be subordinated to private players. It’s debatable and fraught with its own challenges as a principle.
A deal with a single tech giant comes with the attendant risk of ceding control of our digital ecosystem. An ICT Park strategy fosters a decentralised ecosystem that encourages FDI, CDI, and crucially, Domestic Direct Investment (DDI). It incubates startups, innovation, and local patent holding. We need to attract all the big tech giants in the world. We appreciate the gesture by Google and we are willing to engage.
By building our own adequate infrastructure first, will position us with strength, avoiding dominance and monopoly and maintaining control over our data security and economic growth.
5.Answering the Critical "Why Not Both?"
An ICT Park is the very incubator that would make a future data centre successful.
Imagine a park with:
•Startups and innovators developing local solutions.
•Laptops and devices assembled locally (e.g., by Bindura University, ZITCO) for the local market.
•Training hubs leveraging global free courses (like Google's own) to upskill thousands.
•A vibrant administrative hub attracting international talent.
•. Easily provide services like Power, water, computational resources, applications for the use of technology e.g. Silicon Valley where Google, Oracle, Facebook, Apple etc are headquartered.
•This ecosystem generates the demand and talent that a company like Google would need to justify its investment. The data centre then becomes a logical outcome of our success, not a hopeful precursor to it.
In Conclusion: A Data-Led, Sovereign Path
Let us be informed by data and strategic foresight. The sequence matters. By focusing first on ICT Parks, digitalization, and infrastructure upgrades, we build a broad-based, resilient digital economy. This approach doesn't close the door to Google; it ensures that when they walk through it, it is on terms that quantifiably benefit Zimbabwe, fostering an industry growth we will all be proud of.
I am committed to continue mobilising investment for this decentralised, sovereign vision across all ten provinces.
I so submit. Let us discuss

Which one is our priority for securing a digital future for Zimbabwe?
The Honourable Speaker's position while providing a clear, logical, and data-informed counter-argument we appreciate his efforts and submission.
Let us have a conversation on our priorities in the current Zimbabwean context which we presented yesterday:
This is a critical national conversation on our digital future. The proposition of a Google data centre is undoubtedly appealing. Building a centre of Technological Excellence that houses multiple Tech companies and a Start-up Ecosystem is also prudent, though we are calling it a Technology Park.
However, I was of the following view which I am willing to be criticised and guided on. The strategic prioritisation of a national ICT Park ecosystem currently is the foundational path to sustainable, sovereign growth and capacity for Zimbabwe. We are reaching out to every province through the Digital Centres, Innovation Hubs at Universities and Colleges. Infrastructure which we need to capacitate better. This is a decentralised system utilising and expanding the infrastructure we have.
The central question is not if we want major players like Google; that is not questionable, but when, how and on what terms.
Why are we building our own foundation, house, techno park and mini ICT Parks in the provinces and
districts?
We absolutely need at least a one hyperscale data centre, but centralisation in the current and future environment can be restrictive.
This was our plan:
1.The Foundation Before the Skyscraper: Capacity and Traffic
We need to increase our national data volumes and internet traffic . Our urgent priority should be upgrading our national backbone, specifically the Optical Fibre on Power Transmission Lines (e.g., Powertel's network from Insukamini to Johannesburg), to peer efficiently with global giants. This builds the foundational "digital highway" we manage.
2.Generating Traffic Through Digitalization
A data centre is a response to demand, not a creator of it. We must first drive digitalization aggressively through digital payments, process automation, and e-governance to generate the significant local traffic that would make a data centre viable. Furthermore, we must incorporate Edge Computing strategies to process data closer to the source, a more efficient model for our current needs and in compliance to our Cyber and Data Protection Act which we can amend if need be.
Being a regional internet and cybersecurity hub is crucial as the Speaker alluded to me mentioning it to SADC Parliamentary Forum, this is the ultimate goal.

CIVIL SERVANTS will smile ALL THE WAY to the BANK this festive season.
On top of their annual bonuses, President @edmnangagwa is adding a SPECIAL Presidential Bonus of US$150…
That’s what happens when you have a RESPONSIBLE & CORRUPTION-FREE Govt.
As the Economy Grows, govt will also be able to increase remuneration for Civil servants….

To meet FIFA Standards, the National Sports Stadium required just a few modifications… However, President @edmnangagwa wants this TO BE DONE well, once & for all…
Now the National Sports Stadium is undergoing MASSIVE renovations, the final product will be top notch…
Awesome approach 👌🏽

@EmillyNolan @mugadhuwi @six_papi If you are building a ground floor house that 70k is enough . For Duplex it won't be enough ..
English

@mugadhuwi @six_papi How much would you pay to build a 3-4 bedroom house
You’d need to buy the land pay rates and taxes building materials etc it’s expensive and 70k will not be enough
