I realized in my 30s that I don’t want to work until I’m 65, and I’m done chasing a title just so I can look successful to people who don’t matter. I want to make the most money I can, work the fewest hours possible, and spend the rest of my life being present with my wife, my kids, and the people I love. I want more family dinners, more trips, more good food, more memories, and more freedom to do what I want, when I want, without building a life where my best years get traded for a paycheck.

When European colonizers realized that revolutions were getting stronger in Africa, they engineered Black liberation heroes to be their new colonial puppets.

The ones that didn't behave were killed. With no repercussions.

Same thing happened in South Africa. Nelson Mandela became a tool, Chris Hani & Steve Biko were killed. Robert Sobukwe was neutralized.

Colonialism didn't end. It just got dark-skinned managers to distract the masses. They use aide and social welfare to pacify & neutralize those who are angry.

The continent is still being looted like crazy. Africa is poorer than ever. Black puppet leaders are given big money to shut them up & get them to behave.

In places like Sudan & the DRC, puppet leaders are regularly summoned to the USA or Europe to negotiate fake peacetalks, while the looting continues unabated.

Where policies become too problematic, a rise of "illegal mining" occurs, with those artisanal miners still supplying the resources to the same big colonial mining bosses, via midpoints like the UAE.

It's a reminder that African kings sold most of the slaves, & gifted colonizers with lots of land. Europeans didn't kidnap most ppl into slavery. And most land wasn't fought for in the normal sense of conquest.

Africans do not have any real leaders. And when some do emerge, the nations get sanctioned, the leaders are erroneously labelled as tyrant dictators, or the leaders get assassinated.

Most Africans are mentally asleep. They are zombies. They just want booze, free houses, free healthcare, useless schooling, music, dance, football & to stay away from difficult conversations & hard work. They get very aggressive when you try to wake them up.

End.

You know what really bugs me these days? We can't own anything. Everything is a subscription service, like literally everything. You can't buy Microsoft Office, you have to purchase a subscription for a year. You literally have to pay for everything FOREVER. Isn't anyone else bothered by this?

Fuel in Angola costs 300 Angolan Kwanza. Per litre, that’s;

a) 6 Zambian Kwacha

b) 3 Bots Pula

c) 5 Namibian Dollar

d) 32 Zim ZiG

e) 5 SA Rands

But as Africans, we buy fuel from Middle East & never thought to build refineries in Angola. Now the Iran war will teach us !!

Africa, please wake up!
Mozambicans are being shot dead by the police and state security services, with some visuals too graphic to share on public platforms.
This happened yesterday and continues today.

I urge Africans to make their voices heard on this issue.
This is why we are portrayed as a continent of hunger and death.

Is it not interesting that Trump as US president on one side of his mouth speaks of taking Gaza (Greenland and Canada). On the other side of his mouth, opposes South Africa’s Expropriation Act seeking to use NIL compensation for equitable distribution?

The imperialism set out here is at its most naked form!

We will all do well to emphasise the historic similarity of Gaza, West Bank (Palestine as a whole) and to South Africa and Apartheid! FACT: It is the same!

Entrepreneurs, remember: don’t try to build a Boeing 757 engine when you're still a humble tractor. In business, it’s easy to get swept up with your first big check and think the next step is bringing on high-profile professionals to ‘level up’ the business. But sometimes, these experienced hires aren’t the right fit for a company in its early stages. High-profile professionals are often used to operating at scale, with established systems and resources—not with the grit, flexibility, and resourcefulness that’s needed in the early days.

At this stage, you need people who can roll up their sleeves, adapt quickly, and work with what’s available rather than expecting well-oiled machinery. Think carefully about who will be the best fit for where you are right now. Building a solid foundation first with the right team will help you scale smartly in the future when you're truly ready for that ‘757 engine.’

Kenyan activist and journalist Boniface Mwangi @bonifacemwangi was abducted this morning from his home by men in army uniforms.

The award-winning journalist has been at the forefront of numerous human rights campaigns against corruption and abuse of power.

This is unacceptable President @WilliamsRuto, you are taking Kenya back to the Arap Moi days, please release him or take him to court.

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

When we expose the looting and plunder of Zimbabwe’s public funds and the rampant corruption in President Mnangagwa's ZANUPF regime, it is also important to show the impact that this corruption causes on the poor citizens.

This is in South Chiredzi, where buses struggle to navigate because the roads, like many in Zimbabwe, have been ignored by the ZANUPF regime as its leaders steal public funds in historic proportions.

This is the main road that connects Chiredzi and Malipati.
At the very least, this road needs only gravel, but the government of Zimbabwe has failed to provide this since the colonial era due to the massive looting of public funds.

The impact of corruption in Zimbabwe is clear and devastating, and the roads in Chiredzi and beyond are a stark example of that.
The lack of basic maintenance and improvements shows that the ZANUPF government is not using public funds as they should, instead opting to line their own pockets.

This doesn’t only cause inconvenience and wasted time for the people who rely on the roads but also damages the vehicles that use them, leading to costly repairs for Zimbabweans who are already poor!

My dear African brothers and sisters, this is what makes us a laughing stock across the world, this makes us look very medieval and truly backward due to these thieves inside the State.

This is Jameson Timba in prison uniform, a very senior opposition leader in Zimbabwe.
You must know him today if you didn’t already.

He is in jail after being arrested last week with his son and 70 other young people who had met at his home to commemorate the 1976 South African Youth Day.
Timba loves mentoring young people!!!

Jameson Timba has lost a lot from supporting the struggle against tyranny in Zimbabwe.
That is why every sane Zimbabwean should stand up for him and the 70 others who are in jail with him!

This is a man I met around 2006 when he owned a thriving IT business in Harare and Bulawayo.
He chose to support the struggle against corrupt rule and tyranny and lost all the contracts he had.

He was part of Morgan Tsvangirai’s political backbone.
I remember meeting him at O.R. Tambo Airport in September 2008 when I was flying back home with Morgan Tsvangirai.

Timba had just landed from Harare.
He was fleeing from the 2008 post-election violence, while Tsvangirai was returning home after being in hiding in Botswana for months.

We were driven to the airport by Strive Masiyiwa’s security and team of drivers.
My then boss, Tim Singleton, who now heads the Sky News foreign desk, flew me to Johannesburg to be on Morgan Tsvangirai’s flight back home.

I was the ITV News producer covering Zimbabwe and I had a very good relationship with Tsvangirai who agreed that I would get exclusive access to film for our News at Ten programme on ITV News in the UK.

As we went through VIP security at O.R. Tambo, Tsvangirai was told that one of his lieutenants had landed and wanted to see him before he flew out to Harare. It was Timba!
“Do you have money,” Tsvangirai asked Timba.

With tears overwhelming him, Timba simply said, “I will be fine, but our people have been brutalised and are in submission.”

This man is a warrior for democracy who never makes noise about what he has done for the struggle or what he has lost because of it.
It makes me cry when men like him are persecuted, lose everything, and we fail to even talk about their persecution and suffering!

Timba shouldn’t be in jail for meeting with young people at his private residence.
The captured and shameless courts in Harare must release this man and the 70 others!
They were beaten up. Some can’t even walk, and yet ZANU-PF wants to join the @commonwealthsec while doing this!

Remember Timba in your prayers. Remember the 70 young people who were arrested with him.
This shouldn’t happen in a democratic country;m, well, Zimbabwe is a dictatorship!

It's gut-wrenching to think of the injustices Timba and the 70 are facing, and the brazen abuse of power by the authorities.

It is sad that the recognised CCC faction is quiet while Timba and the 70 others are being persecuted!
We cannot let their stories be forgotten or overlooked.
