We let our former masters in for free, then we turn around & charge each other as Africans !
I want the ordinary citizens of Western countries to hear me. You are being persistently told that all your current difficulties are the result of hostile actions by vicious Russia, and that you must pay for the fight against a mythical Russian threat out of your own pockets. All of this is a lie. The truth is that the problems you are facing now are the result of years of actions by the ruling elites of your own countries—their mistakes, short-sightedness, and ambition. They do not think about how to improve your lives; they are obsessed with their own selfish interests and excessive profits - President Putin.
Oil ownership in Middle East & African mineral ownership
a) Saudi Aramco - 100% Saudi Owned
b) Abu Dhabi National Oil - 100% UAE owned
Zambian Copper Mines
a) Kalumbila Mine - 100% Canadian owned
b) Lumwana Mine - 100% Canadian owned
Zambian case applies to all of Africa !!
Arabs have oil; you'll never hear that a Saudi Oil Reserve is 100% owned by a Canadian company. They used oil to build their lands into Dubai.
In Africa, we sell our minerals - give Canadians 100% ownership. Then we want God to bless us again. No. Thats manipulative comrades !!
43.61s!!!🤯🔥🔥
World Lead ☑️
National Record ☑️
Collen Kebinatshipi 🇧🇼 storms to a resounding win in the second semifinal of the men's 400m at the World Championships in a blistering 43.61s!
He broke the Botswana National Record set by the legendary Isaac Makwala.
Rusheen McDonald 🇯🇲 was 2nd in 44.02s, while Jereem Richards 🇹🇹 was 3rd in 44.12s.
Jacory Patterson 🇺🇸 finished 4th in 44.19s.
In Tanzania, Presidential candidates from two major opposition political parties; CCM & ACT have been banned from contesting the Presidency. We have our own issues in Zambia but no matter how toxic our politics gets, no President has ever banned his main rivals from contesting !!
BOTSWANA NATIONAL RECORD 🇧🇼
Collen Kebinatshipi clocks a national record and world lead over 400m to safely books his ticket to the final 💪

Instead of competing, let us build things together.
One of my favourite radio stations when I am in South Africa is the University of Johannesburg Radio, run by its journalism students. That is how institutions produce professionals by giving them real platforms to practise and grow.
So why is the Department of Journalism at Harare Polytechnic, the country’s premier journalism training centre, not running a national radio station with a schedule?
Why are our students denied such an obvious and vital tool? Who needs endless attachment struggles when they could be broadcasting daily, gaining real world experience that sharpens their craft?
This is what I mean when I speak about the relatedness of things. Politics, incompetence, and corruption choke every prospect of national progress.
How can students flourish when the Information Permanent Secretary is a nurse and the minister, as Dr Ibbo Mandaza would say, is simply not fit for purpose; “Don’t talk!”
Our children are being robbed of crucial opportunities to become great journalists. They are left behind, not because they lack talent, but because the system is designed to waste their potential. This is criminal negligence disguised as governance.
APPEALING FOR HELP FOR TINOTENDA MUNAVA
Tinotenda Munava (22years) had an accident on 14 August 2025 and was taken to Harare Central Hospital. His leg was broken in 3 places. See picture below.
The doctors now recommend a surgical procedure to hold the broken bones together with special implants, such as plates, screws, nails, and wires. The estimated cost of the procedure at Harare Hospital is US$ 900.
The caste initially used has not been able to heal the broken leg and Tinotenda cannot walk and has to be carried.
Tinotenda’s parents and grandparents are all late and he is staying with a distant relative. The relative stays with is in the rural area and doesn’t have money for the required surgical procedure.
We are appealing to you to find people that can help to raise the +$900 needed to correct the problem.
