@daddyhope@vudzijenaj@Ritendo@hopewell I have a dispute I have . Can you help me resolve it. It's interesting to expert a story from two known zanu apologists
Matigary you are a hypocrite 🤣🤣🤣. I have not heard you say a word about CAB3. All you have been doing is throwing mud at South Africans when we have a bigger pressing national issue with CAB3 and you did this to run away from commenting on CAB3 to protect your tenders and financial interests.
But now you want to have an issue with me who consistently has been articulating the same position on CAB3? And your frustration is what, that I apologized for disrespecting the First Lady and President’s name? Please bro!!!! Let’s have mature politics.
The Gender Commission will now remain as it is in the constitution, following strong public opposition to the amendment. I had submitted an amendment, which is on the order paper, against the disbandment of the commission. This issue is now settled.
Why Cde Tagwirei Faces More Attacks Than Strive Masiyiwa.
Cde Kuda Tagwirei has, over the years, faced far more criticism from opposition activists and ZANU PF Party critics than Econet founder Strive Masiyiwa @StriveMasiyiwa5 . This contrast has created a growing perception that while Masiyiwa is often treated as the “acceptable businessman” by government critics, Cde Tagwirei has become their main adversary because of his open support for Zimbabwe’s development agenda and his consistent association with efforts to defend the country against sanctions and external pressure.
Strive Masiyiwa is undoubtedly one of Africa’s most successful businessmen and deserves recognition for building Econet into a continental telecommunications giant. Yet despite his immense wealth and influence, he rarely faces the sustained political hostility directed at Cde Tagwirei.
One reason often highlighted is that Masiyiwa largely distanced himself from Zimbabwe’s political and economic struggles after leaving the country around 2000. Over time, he became more associated with international business and philanthropy, to the extent that many now primarily identify him as a British-based businessman rather than someone actively involved in Zimbabwe’s day-to-day national challenges.
Critics also point out that while Masiyiwa expanded his investments and business operations across other countries, creating employment opportunities abroad, Zimbabwe has continued battling unemployment and economic challenges. In contrast, Cde Tagwirei has remained heavily invested within Zimbabwe, continuing to create jobs and support local economic activity even during periods of economic difficulty and sanctions.
Unlike many business figures who relocated or shifted focus away from Zimbabwe, Cde Tagwirei remained physically present and economically active in the country throughout some of its toughest years. Through investments in mining, agriculture, fuel supply, infrastructure-linked projects, and empowerment initiatives, he positioned himself as a businessman directly involved in Zimbabwe’s economic survival and development.
Cde Tagwirei has also consistently associated himself with efforts aimed at countering sanctions and defending Zimbabwe’s economic sovereignty. This close alignment with local development initiatives and national economic programmes is precisely why he has become a major target for opposition activists and anti-government campaigners.
To his critics, Cde Tagwirei represents a businessman closely aligned with the ruling establishment. To his supporters, however, he represents a businessman who chose to stay, invest, create jobs, and stand with Zimbabwe during difficult times instead of abandoning the country.
The difference in how the two businessmen are treated therefore reflects more than business success alone. It reflects contrasting perceptions around patriotism, visibility, political association, and involvement in Zimbabwe’s national struggles. While Masiyiwa built a respected global empire largely outside Zimbabwe’s political battlefield, Tagwirei remained deeply embedded within the country’s economic and developmental realities — and for that reason, he continues to attract far more attacks.

@begottensun It's time to call a spade a spade, the wafawanaka rhetoric doesn't any value to society any more, people should know when alive that their behaviour will follow them in death. That humanity. Ngatisanyeperani, She was vile
