@daddyhope tell President Mnangagwa that the Iron and Steel Cousin of Birchenough Bridge is Sydney Harbour Bridge in Australia. Both Birchenough Bridge and Sydney Harbour Bridge were designed by the same person Ralph Freeman.
Sydney Harbour Bridge constructed in 1932 and Birchenough Bridge constructed in 1935..
However, the difference is between night and day, in the way Sydney harbour Bridge is maintained, serviced and looked after.
In other countries an iconic and rare architectural design of a bridge like Birchenough Bridge it would be considered a geese that lay golden eggs.
It will be valued and looked after as local and global treasure. A Bridge that'll be generator of tourist revenue, and as effective transport network connection.
Just look how Australians made Sydney harbour Bridge a global iconic architectural heritage and consider how ZANU PF government and Zimbabweans are destroying Birchenough Bridge
Dear President Mnangagwa @edmnangagwa
Just in case you are not aware, I would like to bring this to your attention. This is the state of the iconic Birchenough Bridge today.
Bridges, Mr. President, require regular inspection, maintenance and repair. When steel components begin to deteriorate, corrode or crack, they must be professionally assessed and, where necessary, repaired or replaced.
As this photograph clearly shows, there is a substantial visible crack at one of the steel connections, accompanied by corrosion.
Whatever its structural significance ultimately proves to be, deterioration of this nature on a bridge carrying people and vehicles should trigger an urgent inspection by qualified bridge engineers.
This bridge was built in 1936, Mr. President, and it was maintained throughout the colonial era. Look at the state it is in today. This is not merely about appearance; it is about public safety and the responsibility of government to maintain critical national infrastructure.
I am bringing this to your attention publicly, Mr. President, so that if this bridge eventually collapses or a tragedy occurs because of its deteriorating condition, you and your colleagues in government will not be able to say that you did not know.
You have been warned. The condition of the bridge is there for everyone to see. Maintaining infrastructure is cheaper than rebuilding it after a disaster, and certainly cheaper than the loss of human life that can result from neglect.
💣🚨BREAKING: Ian Wright Blasts Media Over Myles Lewis Skelly Headlines.
🗣️I’ve seen these headlines and I’m fuming. Arsenal “offering” Myles Lewis-Skelly to Chelsea and Manchester United? Absolute nonsense. Pure media mischief trying to stir it up.
🗣️This is a Hale End boy through and through. Been here since he was a kid, broke through, played in a Champions League final, scored on his England debut… and now they’re trying to write him out like he’s just some disposable asset? Never. Not in a million years.
🗣️Arteta and the club know exactly what they’ve got in him. Versatile, hungry, proper footballer. They’re not shipping him across London or up north for anyone. Myles is a Gunner and he’ll stay a Gunner. Mark my words.
Stop the clickbait and show some respect for one of our own.
Thoughts on Ian’s Words?

🚨Thierry Henry on Myles Lewis-Skelly being offered to Manchester United and Chelsea, with Arsenal reportedly open to selling.
🗣️“I’m going to say this slowly so it sinks in.
Myles Lewis-Skelly is not some promising kid you’re allowed to sell because the books look tidy. He is already a first-team player who understands the most important thing in modern football: how to control space with and without the ball. And Arsenal are seriously considering opening the door to Manchester United and Chelsea after fresh contact following Bruno Guimarães’ arrival?
That is not squad planning. That is self-sabotage dressed up as business.
Let me break down exactly what you’re looking at.
Tactically, Lewis-Skelly is the prototype inverted full-back that every elite coach wants. He doesn’t just bomb up and down the line like a traditional left-back. He steps inside, receives between the lines, progresses the ball under pressure, and still has the recovery speed to shut down transitions. At Arsenal he already slots perfectly into Arteta’s system, the same system that demands full-backs who can become temporary midfielders when the team builds. He gives them numerical superiority in the middle without sacrificing width. That is rare. That is valuable. That is not something you replace with a random signing in January.
Now imagine that same profile landing at either Manchester United or Chelsea right after Bruno Guimarães walks through the door. Bruno dominates the middle. He dictates tempo, he wins duels, he connects phases. Suddenly you drop Lewis-Skelly next to him and you have a left-sided player who can receive from Bruno, carry into the final third, or invert and create overloads. United get a modern left-back who can finally progress the ball instead of just surviving. Chelsea get another high-ceiling, high-work-rate piece that fits their rotation and development model perfectly. Both clubs win. Immediately. Not in three years. Now.
And Arsenal? They will tell themselves they have depth. They will say they can replace him. That is the same language every club uses right before they watch a homegrown talent become a problem for them every single season. You develop a boy who already starts, who already understands the intensity of the Premier League, who already has the composure most 24-year-olds are still chasing, and you sell him because two big clubs made a fresh call after Bruno arrived?
That is not smart. That is weak.
I’ve seen this exact movie too many times. The club that sells the kid who ‘isn’t quite ready yet’ spends the next four years trying to buy a worse version of him for three times the money. The club that buys him gets a foundation player who grows into a monster in front of their fans. Lewis-Skelly is not a squad option. He is a future cornerstone who is already delivering. Sell him and you are not cashing in on potential. You are selling a player who is already solving problems on the pitch.
Arsenal fans should be furious at the very idea. United and Chelsea are not circling because they are bored. They are circling because they see what Arsenal risk throwing away. Fresh contact after Bruno’s arrival is not coincidence. It is opportunistic. They smell hesitation.
Keep the boy. Let him grow into the player who makes left-backs across the league look ordinary. Because the second you open that door, one of those two clubs is walking through it with a smile, and Arsenal will spend years explaining why the left side never felt the same again.
Do not do it. This one will hurt.”

Below is a video of Zimbabweans complaining about the so-called Chinese investors. How can we regard or consider the Chinese as investors when they do not bank their money, build roads, build infrastructure, but only destroy our environment? Can a Zimbabwean go to China and be considered as an investor while destroying their mountains, exposing the Chinese people to environmental and health hazards, destroying river beds, and leaving open mining shafts and still be welcome?
📲 Louie Copley on Instagram: “Words can’t describe how I’m feeling right now, to making my pre season debut for the team I’ve grown up supporting to finding out I’ve ruptured my ACL. My road ahead won’t be easy but I’ll give everything to come back stronger and better ❤️”
“1994 Şampiyon Kulüpler Kupası finali öncesi Atina’ya doğru stadyuma giden takım otobüsündeydik.
Karş��mızda, herkesin ‘Rüya Takım’ dediği Barcelona vardı.
Franco Baresi ve Alessandro Costacurta cezalıydı. Marco van Basten ile Gianluigi Lentini ise sakattı.
Kimse bize şans tanımıyordu.
Tam o sırada bizimle birlikte otobüste bulunan Franco Baresi beni, Roberto Donadoni’yi, Filippo Galli’yi ve Mauro Tassotti’yi yanına çağırdı.
İlk cümlesi şuydu:
— İyi dinleyin. Herkes bizi bitmiş görüyor. Cruyff kupayı şimdiden kaldırdığını sanıyor. Ama savunmaları aşılabilir. Kanatları doğru kullanırsak onları zorlarız. Öndeki iki oyuncuları, Romário ve Stoichkov, sürekli hareket ediyor. Romario’yu mutlaka etkisiz hale getirin. Savunmayı önde kurun çünkü Stoichkov geriye dönüşlerde yavaş kalıyor. Top onlardayken Romário’ya sürekli baskı yapın, Stoichkov’un başında ise her zaman bir oyuncu olsun. Savunma organizasyonunda da Paolo’yu takip edin.
Sonra bir kâğıt çıkardı ve sahada yapmamız gereken bütün hareketleri tek tek çizmeye başladı.
O an bana büyük bir sorumluluk yükledi. Bu, adeta kaptanlık mirasının bana devredildiği andı. Üstelik bunu bir Şampiyon Kulüpler Kupası finalinden hemen önce yapıyordu.
Daha sonra Fabio Capello yanımıza geldi. Gülümsedi ve sadece şunu söyledi:
— Çocuklar, kaptan zaten söylenmesi gereken her şeyi söyledi. Hadi gidip o kupayı alalım.
Sahaya çıktık.
Barcelona’yı 4-0 mağlup ettik.
Üstelik rakibimiz maç boyunca kalemize neredeyse tek bir isabetli şut bile atamadı.
O gece kupayı sahada kazandık ama zaferin temelleri, Atina’ya giden o takım otobüsünde atılmıştı.
O, sadece sahadaki en büyük kaptanlardan biri değildi; saha dışında da gerçek bir liderdi.” — Maldini
Wojciech Szczesny's days as an Arsenal player came to an end in 2017, but his commitment as a fan led him to follow their title-winning season from afar.
“I suffered a lot (during) the Champions League final. But to win the Premier League after 22 years… It’s a big relief because I’ve waited for it for a very long time and I’m very happy they built a project of probably one of the best clubs in Europe.
“When I was there, we had one season when we were on top of the league for a very long time, and we lost in the end. I felt we were the best team in the league. But we were a very young, inexperienced team, and in the end, when it mattered, we fell short.
“It still hurts because it’s the one trophy that I haven’t won in professional football that I would have loved to win… winning the Premier League with Arsenal. It’s still bugging me from the inside, but as a fan I’m very happy about what happened this year.
“Arsenal is a place where I made my dream come true. Emotionally, it’s the maximum that I believe anybody can achieve: playing for the club of your dreams. I’ve achieved the dream. It’s the peak of your career. It’s a beautiful story, although I only won three trophies with Arsenal: two FA Cups and a Community Shield.
“It will probably always be the most beautiful part of my career. The one filled with the most passion. It was also the start of my career. I was very hungry, very determined to show people that I belong at that level.”
