@elonmusk @nypost Shaka Zulu is a historical figure not a character from literature.

@nypost I agree that she is beautiful, but casting a Black woman to play a White woman in a foundational work of European literature is no more right than casting a White man to play Shaka Zulu!

Alec Baldwin hits back at Elon Musk for criticizing Lupita Nyong’o’s looks amid ‘The Odyssey’ casting trib.al/b281r0Q

@KuraChihota @FBCHoldings @GGuvamatanga & @JMafume should step up and incentivise formalisation. The developer should get tax credits for every square meter of letable SME space built. For registered SMEs, license subsidies by COH. Gvt should subsidise rentals by giving more tax credits to the developer.

#MoneyIsMoving Its not always about clusters guys. @FBCHoldings is grabbing the gap with microunits for SMMEs with this development in Msasa. Unit sizes range from 44 to 153 m2...rents kuma US$13/15m2. The market always brings chocolate where vanilla is served and is boring Contact them suddenly and directly for ALL queries

@EntrepreneurFar @ron_chino Basing the new Hilux on the old maybe a good thing. As it stands, the Hilux, Prado, Fortuner, Quantum and now the 70 series all use the 2.8 GD6-based drive train. For fleets, that tried and tested reliability based on a universal power plant may sway any fleet manager's decision.

@ron_chino For me, it's lacking that wow factor.

Now that the new Travo is fully in Harare streets. Those that have seen it. Any honest options?

Help me here: my dad woke up and his @WhatsApp has been logged out from his number. He didn’t hand over any OTP. Just logged out and now saying he requested OTP to many times and needs to use the “other” phone. What does this mean ? Anyone dealt with this? How does he recover his account

@Jamwanda2 We watch in awe time and time again as simple things are done so poorly, so inefficiently and so corruptly it's incredible. China is not an African phenomenon. The Chinese relate with every nation on earth. However the nature of those relationships are different

@Jamwanda2 I'm happy to confront this. I don't lack pride. I may lack self-esteem. When I interact with the outside world as an African I am reminded of the simple reality that we are victims of poorly negotiated relationships and sub-standard, selfish execution of our collective vision.

WHILST THEY PAY AND BRIBE YOU TO HATE CHINESE INVESTMENTS, THEY ACTUALLY ARE DYING TO HAVE CHINESE FDI!!! Madununu!!!!!

@Jamwanda2 Here sir, you're swinging at ghosts of imaginary arguments I have not made. I have not spoken about Africa. My argument is simple... Macron's description of Europe's stance towards China is admirable and pragmatic in my view. It puts the interests of Europe and her priorities 1st

@tafmakura What is your argument? When are you going to develop your own frame without being motivated to fight America’s geopolitics???? My point!!!!

@Jamwanda2 Well, I made an observation about the clip you posted of Macron, a European talking about Europe. I admire how he frames his argument with respect to their relationship priorities with China. I'm not sure you understood that the clip has nothing to do with African inefficiency.

After listening, try understand!!! They have industries which produce same and similar products, which industries feel undercut by Chinese efficiency!!! Here, you have no such industries and are importing finished goods. The Chinese are in many sectors, including manufacturing. If you think you can borrow Europe’s arguments to shape your attitude to Chinese in Africa, I am strongly tempted to paste my favourite word on your forehead!!!! Respond within your CONCRETE ENVIRONMENT and STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT!!! Outside that, you are USABLE by outsiders, against your existential interests. Wobva waita riyariya!!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣

@Jamwanda2 Yes. He says China is welcome if they invest directly to benefit the growth of Europe in key sectors instead of dumping finished products some of which are sub standard. In summary the investment must be legal, high quality & must transfer technology and grow key sectors.

@tafmakura Did you listen to the clip????

@matigary The constitution is amended by parliament representing the people, and in some cases by a referendum. In both cases the constitution is amended by the people, for the people. The rest are semantics.

@tafmakura Read the constitution.

On the same note, I have not heard from the no-2030 camp a cogent and compelling reason why the President’s term should not be extended. All I hear is that it’s unconstitutional bla bla bla plus insults. The constitution allows itself to be amended. My attitude is that the debate should continue in a democracy. Can someone on the no-2030 bandwagon give me 3 compelling and cogent reasons why the President’s term should not be extended. Make the reasons compelling please.

@KuraChihota @DrWillZee @NunuraiNdawana @Mlandeli_Ndlela @TiChitsinde @Kurlyaffair @L_JayMut @ZtaUpdates @Hararetourism How would you spend the USD cash in RSA?

@DrWillZee @NunuraiNdawana @Mlandeli_Ndlela @TiChitsinde @Kurlyaffair @L_JayMut @ZtaUpdates @Hararetourism Swipe at Makro Ship to Harare Paid in Greenbacks Retain profit 📈 in USD the tax man knows nothing about. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk

MaZimba balance me out. Been seeing more and more South Africans on flights to Harare usually on Thursdays. Asked one of them said #WeekendInHarare is the new thing. Last week in Northern Harare. Saw a group of Kenyans who said the same thing. Good for tourism though. What’s up Harare ? @RangaMberi @tattoedBhiza

1. Because a 30 person team and $6M ARR is enough to be totally life changing for a founder who bootstraps. If you’d taken VC funding, you’d be a failure both financially and critically at that level. 2. Many great ideas just don’t need that much capital. The constraint of limited funding forces customer focus.

@matinyarare Maybe the same applies to government 🤔

𝗪𝗘 𝗪𝗔𝗡𝗧 𝗧𝗢 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗞 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛 𝗕𝗟𝗔𝗖𝗞 𝗟𝗔𝗪𝗬𝗘𝗥𝗦 𝗕𝗨𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗬 𝗟𝗘𝗧 𝗨𝗦 𝗗𝗢𝗪𝗡. Many people are taking issue with Julius Malema using white legal counsel. Well, the sad thing is most of us want to work with black lawyers, but most of our black lawyers are broke, lazy or incompetent. So when you brief them they either screw up your case to keep you in court so that they keep billing or they write shoddy responses out of laziness, they take bribes from the other side, or they simply give you incompetent legal strategy. So you can’t risk your life with such people. In my own experience only one in ten of our black legal minds will deliver value for you in legal issues. I am lucky to have found the one of ten in the black lawyers from #ENS in my fights, however, ENS itself is a white firm. In the reparations case we have had to pick international lawyers over our own because of the above issues. Until blacks take what they do seriously, we will always have this problem.

@RangaMberi @nyathi_nqobani A plus? No! It's a must.

@nyathi_nqobani He’s a natural. A good actor too. Which is a plus for a politician 😀

Comms 101: Botswana has elections soon and President Masisi just dropped this campaign ad. Hilarious! 😎 One of the things he mentions as a success is his ban on veggie imports. SA used to supply 80% of Bots's food before the ban (not sure now).

@RangaMberi Meanwhile in Zim your favourite government "spokesperson on a fence post" is on X insulting the electorate from morning till late evening.

@Bhekzin1818 @matinyarare So sadly I must attribute your opinions to ignorance then.

Interviewer: the socialist (black parties ANC, MK, EFF ) parties are comfortable over 50% without needing Gayton. Bob Hersov: Never gonna happen, because they (park parties) hate each other more than they hate us. 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿 They know black peoples are easily divided and we prove it daily!!!!

@Bhekzin1818 @matinyarare The following three things are facts 1) I am Black 2) I am an African 3) I can disagree with you as much as I choose to and still retain my blackness and my "Africaness" because guess what? I received those by birth and geography, factors that you have no control over.

@Bhekzin1818 @matinyarare Being African is geographic. It means you originate from the African continent, which is a vast and diverse area that includes different beliefs and traditional political systems and ideas that are completely different and sometimes incompatible. Africa is not a country!
