This is the heartbreaking situation in Zimbabwe, jobless young Zimbabwean graduates standing in a massively long queue for interviews at a local restaurant in Zimbabwe’s second-largest city, Bulawayo.
This is what we mean when we say the Zimbabwean tyrant and his regime have destroyed the economy.
This is what we mean when we say Zimbabwe’s unemployment rate is 95%.
Bulawayo used to be the industrial hub of Zimbabwe and the home of its railway company, but trains have stopped running, and factories have been converted into churches.
It is a tragic scene to witness, while the dictatorship spreads crude propaganda that everything is fine and there is no opposition to this painful reality!
All these youngsters are lining up for an opportunity to be a cashier or a cleaner, that is how Zimbabwe’s economy has sunk, university graduates desperate for a job as a cashier or cleaner!
This video was shot today by a local radio station, Skyz Metro FM.
My advice to young people still inside Zimbabwe is to focus on improving your own lives and to fight for a cause, not for a political personality, whether in ZANUPF or CCC. Fix your lives.
It is foolish to bootlick politicians when you are not fighting for the people in prison, those who were tortured, or those beaten up in your name.
Politicians will never fix your lives, for them, it’s just a job.
Mnangagwa has been at it for over 50 years, and Chamisa for 24 years.
Neither of them is poor!
Only a madman would defend rich people who are making money from politics.
This is my last tweet about this issue.
When we fundraise for the poor or prisoners, you won’t see them, they only appear when it is voting time, when we fundraise or ask for help for school fees they don’t come.
I am back to advocating for the release of political prisoners and the cause for change not these narcissists!
As for bootlicking, do it yourselves!!!
Goodnight!
These are painful messages from South Africans reminding us that our presence in large numbers is now seen as a nuisance.
I am sharing this video hoping that it will make those who don’t want to participate in their country’s affairs realise that this frustration is not relenting on the South African side!
The persistence of these frustrations, despite Zimbabwean politicians ignoring them, indicates that they don’t care about the consequences of the mess they have created.
These frustrations are indicative of broader social and political issues brewing in South Africa.
As I travel around the world, the common rhetorical question I get is: “Why do you seem to care so much when you have a good life, but those struggling are not bothered?”
It is important for Zimbabweans both at home and abroad to be seen to care by doing simple things like retweeting and resharing material about their country.
The world considers this before committing to Zimbabwean issues; I know this because world leaders tell me so.
It is also important to acknowledge the root causes of this migration, which stem from economic hardship, political instability, and a lack of opportunities in Zimbabwe.
While these factors may not entirely justify the negative attitudes expressed by some South Africans, they do provide context and highlight the need for constructive dialogue and cooperation between the two nations.
Dear Zimbabweans, let us focus on the crisis and tackle it together.
Do whatever you can, whether it is taking action or simply sharing messages, just do it for the greater good of your country.
You can’t lose your dignity in foreign countries and pass on that shame to your kids as you saw with the Nigerian beauty queen.
We only have one country, and that is Zimbabwe! Good night!
These are pictures showing some of the sixty Zimbabwe National Students Union (ZINASU) student leaders that were beaten and arrested this morning by the Zimbabwean police.
The pictures were taken at Harare Central police station, the last picture shows a wound caused by the police beatings.
This last image in particular, showing a wound caused by the police beatings, serves as a stark reminder of the brutality that these students were subjected to by the Zimbabwean police.
It is crucial that the world bears witness to these human rights abuses👇🏿
Please RETWEET as this might help save this woman’s life!
Dear Africans,
This is Tambudzai Makororo, one of the 74 Zimbabwean political prisoners who were severely beaten by the Zimbabwean police, arrested, jailed without trial, and denied bail.
They were arrested on June 16 after meeting at the home of opposition leader and former GNU cabinet minister, Jameson Timba, where they were commemorating the Day of the African Child.
While in prison, Tambudzai lost her baby, and the Zimbabwean regime refused to let her bury her child.
She underwent surgery on July 8 to treat a fracture caused by police brutality. Unfortunately, due to the terrible prison conditions and lack of wound care, she developed sepsis and her wounds began oozing pus.
Doctors are shocked why someone in such a state can be denied bail.
She is now in a critical condition, but Mnangagwa’s regime doesn’t care.
It is deeply tragic that she and the other political prisoners have been subjected to such violence and inhumane treatment at the hands of the Zimbabwean police and authorities.
The fact that Tambudzai lost her baby while in prison and was denied the opportunity to bury her child is beyond cruel.
The international community must take notice of the massive human rights violations taking place in Zimbabwe and apply pressure on the Mnangagwa regime to stop these brutal and inhumane acts.
There is virtually no political opposition in Zimbabwe, so only the world can help this particular lady.
Please RETWEET as this might help save this woman’s life!
She shouldn’t be in jail, it is beyond cruel, but this is how these FAKE Pan Africanists treat their own people!
PLEASE RETWEET
This is to acknowledge that the Zimbabwean youth have paid attention to the Auditor-General’s report, which has once again shown the alarming levels of corruption and looting in this country.
These brave young people of Zimbabwe are dedicating their hearts and minds to understanding and exposing the outrageous corruption in their country to their peers, as revealed by the Auditor-General’s report.
Our job as elders is simply to RETWEET so that many more young people understand the importance of this report.
What they do with it is their decision.
RETWEETING it for them costs you nothing but will bring the necessary visibility to more young people!
You can and should follow these focused youths on their Twitter handle @Youth_ZW
