They’ve convinced the Africans that they should condemn their indigenous religion and accept the Arab religion in the name of Islam. Condemn the European religion in the name of Christianity.. and forgot that Islam enslaved the Africans by the Arabs. The Europeans enslave the Africans in the name of Christianity and the Bible..
Under the IFAB Laws of the Game, a foul requires that the defender’s action be careless, reckless or use excessive force
but here Tielemans come from blind side, creates the contact by moving into the already committed kicking motion, defender has no opportunity to avoid.
#Senegal....the latest example of how African teams lack concentration at crucial times , coupled with poor game management by the technical team.the game was done and dusted only to give Belgium a second life
Prof. Jeffrey Sachs on the farce of Western countries telling Congo to ‘just govern properly’:
‘The Kingdom of Belgium created a slave colony in Congo for 30 years. The government of Belgium ran the slave colony for another 40 years.
The CIA assassinated Congo’s first popular leader Patrice Lumumba, and then installed another dictatorship for the next 30 years.
And then Glencore and others now suck out your cobalt without giving Congo tax income. We don’t reflect on that. We say what’s wrong with you? Why don’t you govern properly?’
If we do not tell our history often enough, our children may end up hurting those who sacrificed so much for their freedom.
Around 1996, during the early years of my legal practice, I was instructed to represent the South African Embassy in a Magistrates’ Court matter. Mukoma David Munhumeso had sued the South African Government to recover rentals he had paid over the years for South African freedom fighters who had been housed under cover in the Avenues during the struggle against apartheid.
I was instructed by the then South African High Commissioner, His Excellency Mr. Kingsley Mamabolo. The Embassy accepted that Mukoma David Munhumeso had indeed played the role described in his court papers, and I was asked to meet him to negotiate a settlement. He was being assisted by my college mate and friend, Advocate Martin Dinha.
We settled the matter, and the South African Embassy agreed to compensate him.
What stayed with me was not the legal case. It was the conversation afterwards. I listened as Mukoma David Munhumeso recounted the sacrifices made by ordinary Zimbabweans who quietly risked their lives, homes and livelihoods to support South Africans in the fight against apartheid.
My heart broke today when I heard one of the marchers claim that Zimbabwe played no role in that struggle.
I could not help but wonder: how does a man like Mukoma David Munhumeso feel when he hears that? I have heard Thabo Mbeki speak with remarkable honesty about the solidarity shown by Zimbabwe and other frontline states during the liberation struggle. But are we, on both sides of the Limpopo, doing enough to pass that history on to the next generation?
Let me be clear. Illegal immigration cannot be justified, and every sovereign nation has the right to enforce its laws. But history also teaches us something about humanity. If the children of those who once sheltered and protected my family came to my door because their own home was burning, would I simply turn them away? Or would I first reach out to the parents who once stood by us, so that together we could find a dignified and lasting solution?
History should not divide us. It should remind us who we became because we stood together.
Renovations at Matapi Flats in Mbare, courtesy of Cde Engineer Collins Mnangagwa, have been underway for barely a week, yet tremendous progress has already been recorded.
The majority of the blocks have already been painted, while works targeting a world-class sewer system and water reticulation are in full swing.
This is worth celebrating, as uptown standards are being established in what were once the downtrodden streets of Mbare. Truly, under President @edmnangagwa, we are building a better Zimbabwe, brick by brick.
I remember reporting almost two weeks ago about Zimbabweans camped outside the Zimbabwean Consulate in Cape Town. What I do not understand is this: these people have made it clear that they want to return home. We all know they did not plan for these circumstances. They have been stripped of their livelihoods and, in many cases, no longer have the financial means to get back to Zimbabwe.
What stops the President from instructing the Minister of Finance and the relevant ministries to organise buses to transport our people from Cape Town back home?
What stops the government from allowing them to cross the border with their personal goods and belongings without charging customs duty, given that this is clearly a humanitarian crisis?
This is not a complicated policy issue. It is a basic act of leadership and compassion.
What I struggle to understand about the Zimbabwean government is that you see men in expensive suits and women in elegant dresses, yet they fail to think in such simple, practical terms.
At times like these, a government should be seen doing what governments are meant to do, protecting and assisting its citizens.
South African media have reported on the plight of these Zimbabweans almost every day. The situation is neither hidden nor unknown. Yet there has been no meaningful humanitarian response from Harare.
The government and its supporters will no doubt come up with all sorts of excuses. But this really is straightforward. Send buses. Bring your people home. Waive customs duties on their personal belongings. They have been forced into this situation by the climate of xenophobia and Afrophobia they have experienced in South Africa.
A government’s responsibility is not to make excuses. It is to act.
I have orders argued to that even schools don’t need to own a bus unless it runs a pick and drop service the model we used back then was hiring a bus from the CMED. This meant the school doesn’t. Have so much expenses related to bus ownership
Some men plant trees whose shade they'll never sit under. Herbert Chitepo gave everything for a #Zimbabwe he believed in but didn't live to see fully realised. That's the truest measure of sacrifice. Honouring #HerbertChitepo means more than remembering his name — it means asking whether today's Zimbabwe reflects what he sacrificed for. That's a question every leader should sit with.
Prof Lovemore Madhuku explained to @channelafrica1#Zimbabwe's parliament is being unconstitutional, as Section 328 of the Constitution (2013) reads: "If an amendment extends how long someone may hold an office (e.g. lengthening a term or resetting term limits), it does not apply to anyone who already held that office before the amendment took effect — a safeguard meant to stop sitting office-holders from using a constitutional change to extend their own stay in power."
🔸Gosh this is a joke. They throw stacks of $100 bills around like it’s nothing yet they expect a person engaging in hard domestic work to survive on $90 per month. That’s not even a tank of fuel. It is yet another anti-poor, anti-people, anti-progress policy by this incompetent Govt. It’s a mess.
We need new leaders.🇿🇼
🔸Back in 1987 when the Constitution was amended to allow for the direct election of the President, Edison Zvobgo made a compelling case for direct election. He observed that this direct election process was core to “one man, one vote” and denounced the notion of a parliamentary executive as being divorced from the people.
It’s a pity @ZANUPF_Official no longer has intellectual muscle of this caliber. They cannot even have a sound cerebral debate. Varikubatirana pfuti nekunyima vanhi secret ballot in their desperation to rail road a brainless amendment that will ruin the remaining embers of our democracy.
They’ve been reduced to mbingarism, cash for votes and cars for loyalty. They leave their brains at the door. Intellect has been replaced by paid trolls who flip flop according to the highest bidder. Of it’s not paid activism, then it’s a predatory elite that’s stolen so much they’re consumed by the pandemic of conspicuous consumption - spending money meant for basic services on their personal largesse.
Ndozvamakaendera kuhondo here izvi? Our true heroes must be turning in their graves. Did their blood go to waste?
It’s a mess.
We need new leaders.🇿🇼
Given our heritage, I don't think that fabric pushed by ZANU PF can be a national fabric at all. I think ours should borrow heavily from the cow hides colors because that is what we used to wear. We just need creative minds to design contemporary clothing that can be worn by our generation
Agency Gumbo represents the kind of opposition Member of Parliament that every democracy needs. We are all Zimbabweans, but people hold different political views, ideologies and visions for the country. Those citizens deserve representatives who can clearly, intelligently and fearlessly articulate their positions in Parliament.
His contribution during yesterday’s debate on the controversial Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3 demonstrated exactly what an effective opposition MP should do, scrutinise legislation, challenge those in power, and give voice to the concerns of the citizens he represents.
Agency Gumbo showed the importance of having opposition legislators who are informed, articulate and prepared to defend the constitutional principles and democratic values they believe in.
A healthy democracy is not built on conformity. It is strengthened when different viewpoints are robustly debated, tested and heard.
Gumbo’s contribution to the Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3 debate was a reminder of the vital role that a strong and credible opposition representative plays in any democratic society.
🚨 HUMILIATION AT THE WORLD CUP: SENEGAL STARS TREATED LIKE CRIMINALS BY US BORDER THUGS
Senegal 🇸🇳 national team arrives in the US for #WorldCup2026 — and what do they get?
US authorities pulling them off the plane for aggressive bag searches, invasive checks, and public degradation right on the tarmac. Top African football giants disrespected like suspects.
This is not "security." This is racist arrogance from the host nation that lectures the world on fairness while treating African players like second-class humans.
Same America blocking referees, humiliating teams, and showing its true face to the Global South.
Senegal, Africa is with you. CAF and FIFA — speak up or remain useless puppets.
The World Cup belongs to the world, not to US ego and discrimination.
Expose this disgrace. Share widely.
Suddenly all the people who cared about human rights when Russia and Qatar hosted the world cup and suddenly quiet. .. No fancy documentary from the BBC on immigrants rights. No expose on Crime in inner cities (as we saw in South Africa)
Just silence.
