At National Youth Day in Bulawayo, I urged young people to cherish unity, peace, and solidarity to protect our independence. I also launched the Zimbabwe Digital Skills Training Programme to equip 1.5 million youth with skills for the future. The future is in your hands!

“I am scared. I live scared of that knock on my door. I am Dhara B, scared or not scared,” says @bbmhlanga . Blessed is being intimidated and harassed for simply doing his job. #JournalismIsNotACrime
To whomever it may concern,
There is an attempt to blackmail non-ZANUPF members into getting involved in ZANUPF fights.
Asking me to choose between Nick Mangwana and George Charamba is an act made in hell, it is wild!
Do not get angry because some of us have not tweeted what you want us to tweet. It is idiotic to do so, and we won’t do so.
Support whichever ZANUPF faction you want without trying to guilt-trip others into fighting in ZANUPF wars.
You are ZANUPF—we have always known that—even though you hoodwinked the opposition into believing you were with them. Such is the gullibility of some of our people!
So, fight ZANUPF wars without forcing us into your party’s internal fights under the guise of joining a progressive movement! There is nothing progressive about ZANUPF, it has authored all of today’s problems in Zimbabwe as a system.
For some of us, ZANUPF is never the solution. We learned from 2017, and I will never be a ZANUPF member—never have been! But it is your right to be a member and engage about your party with your fellow members.
I am a journalist, so I will report on the dogfights, but I will NEVER get involved in the fighting because I am not ZANUPF.
My dream is a Zimbabwe without ZANUPF, a Zimbabwe where we are all free to pursue our chosen path without being intimidated, jailed, stolen from, and more.
I will maintain journalistic integrity and not be coerced into taking sides in political party battles of a party that has murdered millions of citizens through corruption resulting in empty hospital pharmacy shelves.
It is vital for journalists to remain objective and unbiased in their reporting instead of being asked to pick a side in the nasty party.
Attempting to manipulate non-party members into engaging in ZANUPF political infighting highlights the toxicity of our politics which is now driven by vacuous influencers.
It won’t happen with me, and if you are not happy with it, that is your own business!
If a coup happens, I will report about it but you will never see me twerking for ZANUPF, so don’t waste your time thinking that I will pick a side, call me what you want, it won’t change the real me!
