I am now in the process of engaging with other progresive comrades on how we can build stronger solidarity infrastructure that is agnostic of political whims!
We have a more subtle and dangerous crisis. This has nothing to do with the Elephant in the room but has everything to do with the purported proponents of democratic change. The level of hatred, mistrust and betrayal is next to none. To the extreme left is a team composed of,
1. those who deceptively assumed the leadership of an institution(CCC) after the 2023 heist, these ones want the perpetuation of the status quo (2030).
2. To the centre is a team composed of those who feel 2023 did not cater for their interests. They are outside Parliament or Council their focus is on "stopping 2030 agenda" without any interest whatsoever on the 2023 heist.
3. To the extreme right are proponents of the 2023 heist. They consider the character and composition of the centre brigade as not fully representing their 2023 interests hence lack of interest and appetite to join hands.
The painful reality is that in all this: Zanu PF continue to win . We have come to a point we never imagined that for these various groups ,to them it's rather better that the status quo remain as long as their interests are not taken care of. This explains why you often hear statements like , " We wish them well....." Either of the sides desperately wishes the other/s to fail as long as they are not part of the "solution"
My generation has a special mandate which is threefold ,
1. Unite the base. United we stand , Divided we fall....
2. Establish solid systems
3. Play by the collectively agreed set of rules internally.
The above issues appear to be simple but have been at the forefront of gifting the opponent with more life over the years .

🔸What moneys are being referred to in this audio? What’s the basis of this distribution? Is this how Govt contracts are handled? Who is “momz vaye” and why are they being paid? Who is “DG”? Why is he or she being paid? In what capacity is my son exercising power over his accomplices?
We need new leaders.🇿🇼
CHAMISA IS NOT WEAK ... WE ARE. 🤌🏾
➡️ I'm perpetually embarrassed by my fellow Zimbabweans (who claim to be intelligent), saying things like, 🗣️:
"Chamisa is too weak to take on ZANU" or "Chamisa failed to take power." 🤦🏾♂️
Are you alright upstairs??🧏🏾♂️
TELL ME...
Where does ED get his power from?
Where does Chiwenga get his power from?
It's from People!
Their toxic brigades...
It is because they are buoyed by military, police, mercenaries, ferrets, FAZ, youth militias, etc. 🤷🏾♂️
If either of them was to stand ALONE as an individual without that toxic, prepaid support - they would be wiped off the map in 2 seconds flat! 🌬️ 🧨🧯
Why then do you expect Chamisa to take on ZANU as an individual??
What do you mean when you say "HE failed" or "HE has no power??" 🤔
It's not his job to defeat ZANU alone, and deliver freedom to YOU while you sit on your ass! 🤦🏾♂️
YOU are his power! 👥👥👥🇿🇼
It is only WE the people that have the ability to deliver him to his rightful position of President!
WE are his power base, and the tip of the democracy spear. 🤺
So ... when we say Chamisa is weak ... that is an indictment on OURSELVES. 🙆🏾♂️
It means we have abandoned and OUTSOURCED our struggle - and now expect a handful of people to rescue us and fight on our behalf. 👀
We expect Chamisa, Chibaya and Ostallos to siege State House, take power, and rescue the country. Otherwise if not, that means they are weak... 😑🤦🏾♂️
Listen ... if we separate ourselves from President Chamisa, and say "go and take on ZANU and install yourself as President" - how do we think that can possibly happen?? 🤷🏾♂️
WE are the ones who have failed.
We failed to defend our votes.
We failed to resist the ZANU PF attack on the Party that we supported (OUR Party).
We failed to act against Tshabangu. We just looked at him demolishing our party and shook our heads and watched and blamed the victims.
We failed to act against ED's becoming SADC chair.
We failed to act as our country has been plundered, our relatives beaten and starved, and our children's futures stolen.
We have allowed ourselves to become 18 million toys - popeyes for demented thieves to play with.
Yes, you can comfort yourself and BLAME Chamisa all you want.
But when you are pointing your finger at him, remember that there are THREE fingers of your hand pointing right back at YOU. 🫵🏾
And now ... ONCE AGAIN instead of standing united and strong in the furtherance of democracy and the future we deserve - we are throwing our weight behind general Chiwenga, in his supposed internal factional war.
A man that has murdered tens of thousands of innocents, co-oppressed us for decades, and looted billions from us.
Because ONCE AGAIN we want change to miraculously happen for us, without us needing to do anything - except sit at home.
Well, that's not gonna happen.
There is no magic that will deliver to us a free country.
Only pressure.
We ourselves are the ONLY solution to our plight.
And instead of throwing our solid support behind a leader who we know will deliver the country we WANT, we opt to choose between one abuser and another. 🙂
And our support of one ZANU faction over another, EMBOLDENS our oppressors to maintain the course.
Such is the result of our delusions.
We need NEW leaders. 🇿🇼 🔄
FOLLOW TO BECOME…Then Jesus said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you become fishers of men.” They immediately left their nets and followed Him. Mark 1:17-18
Fellow brother or sister, in order for you to become, leave your nets and follow Him. Only Jesus can make you become. Receive Him. Follow Him. Try Him. Believe in Him, your life will never be the same again.
Blessed Sabbath! #Godisinit #FollowJesus

HBD Hon. J.Z. Timba!
It is indeed a very happy birthday to one of our most experienced, disciplined, and loyal leaders, Hon. Jameson Zvidzai Timba
Hon. Timba is definitely one of our unsung heroes in the ongoing struggle for a new democratic Great Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 for everyone
🎂 🥳 🎉 🎈 🎁 🎊 🎂
I gave Dr. Monarez the opportunity to send a message to parents at the end of today’s hearing.
Her message was clear: vaccines are safe and effective.
RFK Jr. is trying to convince parents otherwise. He must be removed from office immediately.
THE ZIMBABWE WE WANT..🇿🇼 Zimbabwe is ours. Zimbabwe is us. It belongs to us all, not to a few.
Zimbabwe is neither party nor personal property. This jewel is God’s gift to us all. We, the people, are God’s stewards of this jewel. We cannot fold our hands while it fades.
Zimbabwe is too precious to be left dying and decaying. Zimbabwe must shine. Come, let us reason together. .

What happened to University of Zimbabwe’s Lecturers Strike for Salary Adjustment?
Recently, my learned colleagues from the University of Zimbabwe staged a peaceful demonstration over poor remuneration which went over 100 days.
We supported them because their issue had a moral ground in the sense that GoZ must pay decent salaries to its staff although I have a long standing view that professors must not solely depend on salary but use their academic prowess to generate additional income.
Strikingly, GoZ ignored them as nothing is happening and guess what my colleagues put their tail between their legs and went back to lecture rooms and accepted the fate to continue receiving US$228 per month (net salary).
Ironically, the majority of the civil were banking on the strike of the esteemed professors with much hope that this demonstration would push GoZ to increase salaries of the academics & this will filter to the rest of the civil servants but alas the professors threw in the towel & rushed to protect their $228 when the university authorities undertook an exercise to replace striking lecturers. Hanzi vakuru vakati usarasa chiri pamaoko nekuda kuombera.
It looks like @ZANUPF_Official & @ZANUPF_Official government has a good grasp of the character of Zimbabweans - as being weak and spineless with no capacity to resolutely stand up on their rights such as demanding decent salaries.
Ko kuzoti….? Pakaipa.
