Unobuda Nduru If You Don’t Read This Zim December Thread

A December run to Zim hits you with the obvious truth: Home is best.

You move around without having to shrink or conform just you, free, grounded, and surrounded by a genuine sense of happiness.

@sam_dzivah @FBCHoldings Try Mukuru, it has a bank top up Money Send option to UK/EU. At most you would have paid $300

Goals for 2026 have been locked in. Last year I achieved 15 out of 25 and had so much fun while doing it. Turn your goals into Bingo. Just trust me. Print it out and stick it where you see it daily💜

Happy 2026 everyone!!!!!!!!!!!

@EMukumbo @_thabang_m Press play on the series, go to sleep. Wake up, let ChatGPT handle the MCQs, and—voilà—by tomorrow you’re a certified Udemy graduate with absolutely no idea what’s going on

The South African government through the SA Embassy in Zambia (Lusaka) got Standard Bank to fund the renovation of the house. Zambia will always be home. 🇿🇦 is forever grateful...!🙌🙏

OR Tambo, The ANC President whose name is also given to Africa's largest Airport in Johannesburg, lived in this house for 22 years in Lusaka. The house is along Great East Road in Lusaka's Avondale and is painted in ANC colours, maintained yearly by the Zambian Government !!

@Mappy6984 You are not the only one, guess he has his target market. Cause my 3 year old son now randomly shouts “who made it” if he finishes or bites something he doesn’t like

My take: PayPal is building a two-engine model

• Regulation → margin + credibility
• Interoperability → scale where licences are slow

So the real question is 👇

- Do you back the super-app that owns the user…
or the network that connects them all?

#FintechFuture #Strategy

[Steve Maz @SteveMaz_]

PayPal isn’t chasing the super-app race.

It’s choosing a different endgame.

While neobanks fight to own the customer, PayPal is quietly positioning itself as something else entirely 👇

#FintechStrategy #Payments

[Steve Maz @SteveMaz_]

In the Revolut era, users expect:

• one app
• one balance
• cards + rewards by default
• credit at the right moment

PayPal’s bet?

- Meet those expectations without losing its core edge: global merchant trust.
