A man left a bar with someone he believed was a woman, only to later realize the person was a man. The misunderstanding quickly turned into a fight. 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Enjoy your morning, drama
Jealous Mawarire Has Not Seen The Report So What Is He Attacking?There is something I do not understand about Jealous Mawarire’s recent statements on PPRIZ. There are claims that the PPRIZ survey report was "doctored", yet the same Mawarire says he has not seen the report. On what basis then are the claims being made?
If the claims are based on the publicly available presentation made by PPRIZ to the press, then I am at a loss. Nothing in those figures is implausible. If anything, contrary to Mawarire’s suggestion, the figures are not favorable to ZANU PF.
For example, only 48% supported the election of the President by Parliament, only 48% supported the appointment of the judiciary by the President without the involvement of Parliament, and only 42% supported the involvement of Chiefs in politics. By his own admission, Mawarire also agrees that the report states that only 12.5% participated in the public hearings.
To me, these are politically embarrassing figures for ZANU PF, not a win. Where then is the "doctoring"? Perhaps I need a sangoma to throw the bones and help me understand the psychology of Mawarire.
My reading of the available figures on each of the provisions of CAB3 shows that support sits in the lower 50 percentage points. Moreover, these figures combine both "strongly support" and "somewhat support." Any careful reader will note that if "strongly support" and "somewhat support" are separated, none of the CAB3 provisions meet a clear threshold of support. As an investigative journalist, Mawarire should have applied his mind to these details instead of scandalizing the report and the names of individuals involved.
He is regarded as an investigative journalist. That is why the personal attacks on the Director of PPRIZ without evidence are mind boggling. Mawarire seems pained that the Director was once a Minister, and has now concocted a story that Zimbabwe is about to have another transition, therefore the Director is positioning himself. This is bizarre. Does Mawarire now believe that Mudenda represents "transition"? Kunzima.
It is also puzzling that Mawarire accuses the PPRIZ Director of mobilizing the people of Matabeleland to support the coup of 2017. It is common knowledge that citizens across the country came out in their numbers to call for the resignation of Robert Mugabe. To now attribute that national moment to one individual is beyond fiction. If the Director truly had that kind of power and influence then, he would be an invincible man in this country. But all this exists only in Mawarire's imagination.
More seriously, Mawarire claims that the PPRIZ Director is fearful for his life. I fail to follow the logic. How can the Director be fearful for his life if, as alleged, the survey report is favorable to ZANU PF? That reasoning does not hold. Make it make sense please.
There is a pathetic contradiction in this whole Mawarire thesis. If the PPRIZ Director is connected to Jonathan Moyo, as he alleges, surely how can he be fearful of his life? There is this woeful and myopic thinking which seeks to discredit Matabeleland influencers and leaders by associating them with Jonathan Moyo. Please give us a break.
It is sad that Mawarire has introduced ethnic stereotyping into this debate by labeling Matabeleland CSOs as ZANU PF extensions. I do not see how that relates to the CAB3 survey. Dragging ethnicity into a methodological and policy discussion only betrays Mawarire's true intention, that is to distract from the substance.
On a substantive point, Mawarire posted a photo of academics and university administration, then later issued a retraction. The question now is whether he will also retract the rest of the narrative, given that it appears to be built on falsehood, ethnic stereotyping, and a lack of critical engagement with the actual data.
So, if you want to import goats from South Africa into Zimbabwe, the first thing you need to know is that goats do not attract customs duty. The only costs involved are the fees for the import certificates and a small fee payable at the border, which I believe is around US$25 to US$50.
Here is what you need:
1. Veterinary Services Import Permit – You apply for this at the Department of Veterinary Services headquarters on Borrowdale Road, just after State House in Harare.
2. Ministry of Agriculture Certificate – The Ministry of Agriculture offices are located next to the Veterinary Services offices on Borrowdale Road, and this certificate is also required.
3. Agricultural Marketing Authority (AMA) Certificate – You also need an import certificate from the Agricultural Marketing Authority, which is based in Harare.
These are the three certificates you need to import goats into Zimbabwe.
I can only speak specifically about goats because I do not import any other livestock. My focus is entirely on goats, and this is the process that I follow when bringing them into Zimbabwe.
It may also be advisable to contact the Department of Veterinary Services before purchasing the animals, as import requirements and fees can change from time to time.
Make sure the goats come from a province that Zimbabwe currently allows imports from. Zimbabwe has, at different times, restricted imports from certain South African provinces because of outbreaks of diseases such as Foot-and-Mouth Disease. Before buying any animals, confirm with the Department of Veterinary Services that imports from that province are still permitted.
The goats must have a Veterinary Health Certificate from South Africa. This certificate is issued by a South African state veterinarian and confirms that the animals are healthy and free from specified diseases.
Goats need to undergo quarantine and testing. Depending on the prevailing veterinary requirements, the animals may have to spend time in an approved quarantine facility and undergo blood tests before export.
Apply for your permits before buying the animals. It is always advisable to secure your Zimbabwean import permits first so that you do not buy goats that you later discover cannot be imported because of disease restrictions or paperwork issues.
You will also need a clearing agent at the border. The clearing agent helps process the paperwork and ensures the permits and animal movement documents are properly handled when the truck reaches the border. It costs less than US$100 or just US$100.

Everyone has an opinion on #CA3 .
Very few have read the data. I did.
The latest @PPRIZ2021 survey spoke to 1,641 Zimbabweans across the country. Whether you support the Bill or not, facts deserve a seat at the table. 🧵
Madame Celeste Amarilla,
Vous êtes une femme méprisable et indigne de sa fonction.
Vous ne représentez pas le Paraguay, ce pays qui a transpiré la passion et l’honneur tout au long de la compétition. Par votre inconscience et votre racisme décomplexé, le monde entier a déjà oublié le parcours et l’effort historique que vos joueurs ont réalisés durant cette coupe du monde pour laisser place à une dame incompétente donnant la pire image possible de son pays.
Je ne laisserai jamais aux gens comme elle, la liberté de laisser propager leur haine et leur racisme à travers le monde.
Attacking Dr. Gorden Moyo with conspiracy theories instead of engaging his research says more about his critics than it does about him. If his findings are wrong, challenge the data, question the methodology, or present stronger evidence.
Reducing every independent academic to "someone's project" is an easy distraction when you can't counter the substance.
Scholarship should be judged by facts, evidence and intellectual rigor, not by political labels, imagined sponsors or convenient narratives. A confident democracy debates ideas; it doesn't try to discredit every voice that contributes to the conversation. #PPRIZ #CA3 #CA3BILL @Bete263@AMutirikwa
🚨Thierry Henry on Portugal’s elimination from the FIFA World Cup:
🗣️ “I’m going to say something that a lot of Portuguese supporters probably don’t want to hear.
This Portugal team has massively underperformed.
Not because they lacked talent, but because too many of their biggest players never reached the level everyone expected.
Bruno Fernandes has been dreadful by his own standards throughout this World Cup. The creativity, the leadership, the decisive moments we’ve seen for years simply weren’t there. Then you look at Vitinha and João Neves—fresh from winning the Champions League with PSG. Two midfielders who dominated Europe. Yet in this tournament, they’ve been almost invisible. Missing in action when Portugal needed control, composure and personality.
And then there is Cristiano Ronaldo.
People will blame him because that’s the easy thing to do.
I won’t.
Because if you decide to start Cristiano, then you have to build situations that suit him. Instead, Portugal kept circulating possession without purpose. They had one of the greatest penalty-box finishers football has ever seen, yet they hardly gave him the service he lives on. That’s not on Ronaldo. That’s on the team around him.
Spain deserve enormous credit.
They played with a clear identity from the first minute until the last. Every player knew his role. Every movement had purpose. Portugal, on the other hand, looked like eleven talented footballers trying to solve the game individually rather than collectively.
That’s why Spain are still in this World Cup.
And that’s why Portugal are going home.
Not because they had worse players…
But because they never played like a better team.”
Comments on this tweet are happy. They are reading the survey results as if PPRIZ rubberstamped ED2030 and it is not true. Even me who is completely against Zanu, l can tell you that these figures dispute the narrative that Zimbabweans overwhelmingly support CAB3. Respondents opposed electing the President via parliament. There's not majority win here.
I am reading the survey report on the Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3 of 2026 which was done by PPRIZ. Firstly, from the respondents, only 12.5% participated through attending the public hearings or writing submissions to the Parliament. Parliament must take note of this. People were aware but the level of participation is a concern to me.
Because a study is only as credible as the methodology that shapes it, the PPRIZ study commands absolute confidence. Its rigorous systems are flawless, and the data yields an unmistakable truth—the Zimbabwean populace stands in resolute support of CA3.
The takeaway isn't to weaponise the findings. It's to understand them.
Trust is earned through transparency, accountability, and consistent institutional performance. Measuring public confidence isn't an attack on institutions, it's how democracies identify where improvement is needed.
#PPRIZ #Zimbabwe #Governance #PublicOpinion
Institutional trust isn't about popularity, it's about legitimacy.
When citizens trust institutions, they are more likely to accept decisions, comply with processes, and participate in democracy. When trust is low, every outcome becomes contested, regardless of the facts. #CA3 #CA3BHOO
One thing about data? It doesn't care about political feelings.
The latest @PPRIZ2021 national survey mapped public trust across key state institutions. The results show where Zimbabweans have confidence, and where that confidence is weakest. That's the kind of evidence serious governance conversations should start with. #CA3Bill #PPRIZ #CA3
