Songhai traditional granaries.

It’s lowkey sad to see that art considerably decreasing in favor of ugly straw granaries.

Take the land and be like Zimbabwe 🔥

Just 46 years after Independence… and 26 years after the HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL Land Reform program, black Zimbabwean farmers are now the face of Commercial Agriculture…

President @edmnangagwa made sure that the land is being FULLY UTILISED…

Zimbabwe recorded the BIGGEST wheat, tobacco, maize, blueberries harvests under President Mnangagwa.

Zimbabwe is the 4th largest producer of Macadamia nuts in Africa… Under President @edmnangagwa, Macadamia nuts production has massively increased… in the 2025/6 season, production increased by 40%….

This means JOBS & REAL MONEY into the pockets of the Zimbabweans producing the crop…

The land, once again, is producing BIG!
