Zimbabwean opposition politics is real child’s play—mahumbwe chaiyo.

Chamisa and his team blocked people like Tendai Biti from going to Parliament—Biti, who was a workhorse in Parliament and who has an unmatched record of exposing corruption was removed and we knew it before it happened because it was planned.

They then allowed Mai Khupe to go to Parliament on their ticket, the same Mai Khupe who facilitated the stealing of the MDC party by Emmerson Mnangagwa.

Today, Mai Khupe is at Mnangagwa’s farm, dining and wining with the very person they claim to oppose!
That is the team that will help Mnangagwa achieve his 2033 dream unless someone bold steps up to stop him.

But instead, you will see opposition clowns insulting Tendai Biti, accusing him of falsehoods and associating him with Tshabangu, despite the fact that he left politics after his humiliation with the Bereka Mwana nonsense in Harare East.

Even now, with clear evidence that the right people were blocked from entering Parliament while the wrong people were sent—people who do not even say a tenth of the things Tendai did or said—the opposition continues to fail Zimbabweans.

But because Zimbabwean opposition politics revolves around personalities rather than a unifying cause, Zimbabweans will continue to be played by politicians who are on Mnangagwa’s payroll.

Wait for another party to emerge, and the same nonsense will be repeated again!
One of the MPs popularly knows as Machuma-Machuma who insulted Sikhala when he was in prison and was at the heart of CCC’s operations is also there at Mnangagwa’s farm!

I once said any prospective MP should be subjected to a public interview, but their handlers refused because they know they would be exposed as nothing other than bootlickers.

All they needed was to sing Chamisa’s name daily on social media and at public gatherings, and they were in.
Those who challenged Chamisa’s political ideas that have since been proved to be ineffective were called sell outs!
Those who called them sell outs are today at Precabe farm. Good afternoon!

The Department of Basic Education should clarify its position regarding the sale of matric results by a private entity:

Statement:

Education activist Hendrick Makaneta has called on the the Department of Basic Education to clarify its position regarding the sale of matric results by a private entity.

We are deeply troubled by reports that Edumarks, a private company, is allegedly selling matric results even before the Department of Basic Education (DBE) has officially released them.

This raises serious questions about how Edumarks gained access to such sensitive information, whether the results being sold are authentic, and whether the DBE’s systems have been compromised.

The situation is a cause for great concern. If true, this suggests a potential breach of data security and a violation of learners' right to privacy.

It also raises suspicions of unethical conduct and possible collusion between individuals within the DBE and private entities for financial gain.

We call on both Edumarks and the DBE to immediately clarify the situation. How did Edumarks obtain these results?

Was access authorized, or has there been an unauthorized breach of the DBE’s systems? If no authorization was given, urgent steps must be taken to protect the integrity of the examination process and hold those responsible to account.

Learners and their families deserve to trust that their personal information is handled with the utmost confidentiality.

The sale of results, whether legitimate or not, undermines public confidence in the education system and casts doubt on the DBE’s ability to secure its systems.

In light of these developments, we urge the DBE to conduct an internal investigation and call on the Special Investigating Unit to intervene to ensure transparency and accountability.

This matter must be resolved swiftly to protect the credibility of the matric examination process and to reassure South Africans that the education system remains secure and free from unethical practices.

Re: the California fires: The best firefighting aircraft is "the Beriev Be-200, a Russian fire and rescue aircraft. Unfortunately two things blocked the idea: stupid sanctions that not only still exist but have been made worse thanks to Biden, and the failure of the FAA to certify the Beriev, preferring to do nothing while the nation was on fire."

The above is per Stephen Bryen.
