If I were to give a historical account fifty years from now to the next generation, I had say : Once upon a time, nearly three score and ten years ago there was an ambience of an economic tsunami in the Kingdom. The King , Robert Gabriel son of Mugabe ruled with an iron fist. Unemployment exponentially climbed to unprecedented diabolical proportions. In the first quarter of the 21st century of the Anno Domini, there was an unprecedented exodus of Zimbabwean men migrating to neighboring countries and far beyond . Upon arrival to the new hemispheres , the Zimbabwean men assimilated . Industriously , they worked in the foreign lands sending remittances back to the Kingdom , for the up-keeping of their kith and kin . The hard working men came back to the Kingdom to marry and o
his CORRUPT duo of Nick Mangwana and Kirsty Coventry used their proximity to Mnangagwa’s power to get a stand and a farm respectively. This is something that YOU can’t do. There is ONLY 1 name for that; it is called CORRUPTION! Anything that any citizen can’t apply for and get in equal time with others is CORRUPTION! This is why Kirsty Coventry NEVER condemns violence, abductions against young women or killings by her government. It is because she is a beneficiary of that brutality which has subjected you to second class citizenry. It took a long time for Zimbabweans to realise this because they were dazzled by Kirsty’s gold medals. The same way they were dazzled by Mugabe’s many University degrees and good command of English. A monkey i

Fellow citizens, I come to you under very difficult circumstances in our country and indeed in the whole world. Let us begin by observing a minute of silence for all the COVID-19 victims in Zimbabwe and across the nations of the world. We are in difficult times and a deep crisis. This is a crisis like no other, and there is substantial uncertainty about its impact on people’s lives and livelihoods. In the days ahead, a lot depends on the epidemiology of the virus, the effectiveness of containment measures, and the development of therapeutics and vaccines, all of which are hard to predict. Our country faces multiple crises—a health crisis, a financial crisis, and a poverty crisis, which all interact in complex ways, presenting unprecedented challenges to household
To most Zimbabweans, the name Locadia Karimatsenga Tembo brings back memories of her bitter court battle with the country’s then Prime Minister, former trade unionist and popular opposition leader, the late Morgan Tsvangirai. It was September 2012 and Locadia had launched a legal bid to stop the marriage of the PM to Elizabeth Macheka, the businesswoman who had replaced her after her own short-lived union with Tsvangirai. It was a dramatic court action which grabbed the headlines, as Locadia threatened to stop Tsvangirai’s vows of matrimony to Macheka, three years after the MDC supremo had lost his wife Susan in a car accident. Locadia also wanted the Prime Minister to pay monthly allowances of $15 000. With his wedding under threat, the MDC leader reportedly had to
Reports coming out of the Kingdom of Eswatini suggest that King Mswathi III is in critical condition. The King is reported to be having challenges in breathing even though the state media is reporting that ‘everything is fine.’ Swaziland News says the king cancelled a planned press conference that was demanded by the people who are worried by his absence.Mswati has been absent from the media since mid march when he received state guests, soldiers from Taiwan who had come to donate helicopters. The soldiers were part of the 400 who were quarantined according to reports in Taiwan. Swaziland, whose name was changed to the Kingdom of Eswathini by the King, is Africa’s last absolute monarch. It qualifies to be an absolute monarch because it is the king who chooses the Pr
THE United Kingdom (UK) has ordered its citizens to leave Zimbabwe in the wake of the coronavirus (Covid-19) outbreak which has since claimed three lives, placing the mortality rate at 27 percent in the country. Posting on its Twitter account, the UK embassy said citizens in the country must go home immediately as there are no plans for a charter. “You should return to the UK now if you are a British national normally resident in the UK but still in Zimbabwe. “There are no plans for a charter.
