- Who were the competitors? What was the criteria? Who funded the Award? In which paper can the stories be sourced? When those who hate, sanction & colonize you, suddenly find value in those who trumpet their tune, be suspicious of these Awards. Moise Tshombes of our times.
- Numbers don't lie. Before you talk about rigging in 2023 think about this: ZANU-PF 9 constituencies gave them 128,399. CCC 19 constituencies gave them 129,799. ZANU PF managed to cut CCC's winning margins ZANU PF improved their winning margins ZANU PF grabbed 2 seats from CCC
- Clarity of thought on contemporary Pan Africanism. Operation Dudula is put in its proper place. Speak Mshavi.
00:00 - When the design of a traffic circle is informed by African visual culture, then you know decolonisation has reached Zimbabwean sciences. BBridge traffic circle.
- So who was this man who appeared at RG's funeral and looked exactly like RG Mugabe? @ProfJNMoyo or Anybody?
- One day when we write history, we shall thank the MDC for calling for sanctions. We shall thank all enemies. We shall thank lending institutions for turning the tap off on Zim. These factors have taught us to believe in ourselves and in our own resources. Theories 'll be revised
- David Coltart blocked me after he mentioned that Russians had lost 80000 soldiers in the war Russo-Ukraine war. I told him that between 1964 and 1979 (15yrs) he and his folks had killed 30000 Africans. It wasn't realistic to suggest that 80k Russians had been killed in 6 months.
- A friend of mine wants to send money to my mother from Costa Rica, but cannot because Zimbabwe is on sanctions list. Are sanctions smart enough to only punish the so called 'rogue' leaders in Zim? And then you hear somebody say sanctions don't hurt the ordinary folk? Really?
- Went to Avondale Bookshop to buy Masoja, a book about Rhodesian African Rifles. Then I saw this less talked about book written by an ex-Zanla guerrilla about the war. I dropped my plans and bought this one. I m unable to drop it. This is gold.
- Replying to @nelsonchamisaDemonstrate this in the cities you control and I will be the first to cast my vote for CCC.
- I have come to realise that if you attack Rhodesian legacy and its brutal history, there will be a team of nearly 300k young black people and a few old young men (not a single white person) who will be unleashed on you for nearly a week to silence you on anti-Rhodesianism. 1/
- This is Comaro Crossing Mall in Johanneburg. Business Centres like this one are strategically located near middle to low income neighborhoods. I understand Madokero, in Harare, is located near Tynwald. Nothing out of the ordinary. Chimwe nechimwe chine zera racho.
- Finally the books arrived. The first edited collection on Zimbabwean theatre covering nearly 100 years. Yours truly played author and editor.
