@ubekim@PridieMakoya@DavidColtart Who cares what Brits considered it. British pedos consider small boys worthy lovers for all their pleasures. Portuguese reigned over the territory called Zim way before the Brits. They too had treaties with the Chiefs of the area. Brits mnfctd lies to justify their expropriations
@ubekim@PridieMakoya@DavidColtart Thats a direct quote from the Internet. But since you asked, Lobengula was no King, not even in Byo. He was a lazy clan leader who knew no agricultural, survived on pillaging and raiding pastoralist communities. The thieving Rhodies forced the title on him to justify an invasion
@PridieMakoya@ubekim@DavidColtart Have u read the Rudd concession?This treaty gave Rhodes the rights to mining and administration (but not settlement as such) in the area of Mashonaland which was ruled by the King by use of coercion and murderous raids involved tribute-taking and abduction of young men and women.
@ubekim@DavidColtart There was no need for surrender, the visitors said they were not here to stay. Today as l speak from a farm taken from one of the visitors, l can assure you my ancestors were and are still smarter than yours.
@baba_nyenyedzi I've worked with rural councils and from your input l can see you've never attended a single RDC council budget meeting. Asking councils to trade devolution funds for royalties is close to idiocy
@baba_nyenyedzi Gwanda was allocated a total of ZiG228,905,200 ($16.9 million USD in devolution funds. The municipality budget based on their revenue is usually around $ 6 million. Royalties from mines in Gwanda are nowhere near $1 million
@zenzele Community participation and leadership in local development is the way. This attitude of waiting for central gov to do everything is why there are very few schools in that part of Zim while other communities in other provinces used resources at their disposal to build schools
