This Channel Four News report on how the Chinese poisoned a river in Zambia is tragic, and YOU must watch it and RETWEET so others can learn about the dangers of uncontrolled exploitation of African resources!

The Zambian government has been absolutely irresponsible in dealing with the Chinese mine pollution, a catastrophic failure of leadership.

The Chinese have behaved badly across Africa, ripping out mineral resources in a manner that makes colonial exploitation look like child’s play.
Communities are left with poisoned rivers, devastated farmlands, and ruined livelihoods, while corrupt officials look the other way. Many will live with these consequences for decades to come!

Africa deserves leaders who defend their people’s health, environment, and future, not sellouts who mortgage the continent for thirty pieces of silver.

PLEASE RETWEET, THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT

This leaked document is a Cabinet memorandum from Zimbabwe’s Minister of Justice, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs, Ziyambi Ziyambi. It proposes undemocratic constitutional amendments with huge implications for Zimbabwe.
These include having Emmerson Mnangagwa as a life president, because at 86, if he gets another three years in office after his term ends in 2028, he will be 92 years old in 2031.

When I broke the story about Members of Parliament being given land in Mabelreign to block any impeachment attempt and to assist the Zimbabwean dictator in securing a term extension, one that would also benefit the crooked MPs, Jonathan Moyo wrote a long article accusing me of misinforming and disinforming the public.

Many, including some who see themselves as opposition, danced to his propaganda piece. I wonder what they will say now that this leaked document confirms my reporting and the indirect intentions of the land grab.

According to this document, Mnangagwa and his surrogates plan to extend the terms of office for the President, Parliament, and Councils by up to three years, through a two-thirds parliamentary vote.
This is why the MPs were illegally given land, it is greenway land, and the allocation was unlawful and had nothing to do with the 2013 land offers to MPs.

As I reported at the time, they plan to postpone elections for that duration.
They also intend to repeal term limit protections in the Zimbabwean Constitution.

They also want to remove Section 328(7), which currently prohibits the retroactive application of term limit amendments.
This means they are attempting to remove a constitutional safeguard that prevents leaders from benefiting from changes to term limits after they are already in office just like they did with the disgraced Zimbabwean Chief Justice, Luke Malaba.

This change would allow the amendments to apply to current officeholders, effectively giving Mnangagwa and the crooked MPs a chance to benefit from extended terms.

They also want to shift voter registration responsibilities from the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) to the Registrar of Births and Deaths.
The direct consequence of this is the postponement of elections by up to three years, which of course is undemocratic.

Stripping ZEC of its voter registration mandate undermines the independence and integrity of the electoral process in Zimbabwe.

The panic that set in after I exposed the land grab in Mabelreign, and the hopeless defences that followed, were clearly not only aimed at labelling me a misinformer, but also revealed the anger felt by the architects of this crooked, unconstitutional, and undemocratic attempt to drag Zimbabwe into becoming a real banana republic when the land documents were leaked to me.

There was a coordinated attack involving Zimbabwe’s Minister of Information, Jenfan Muswere, ZANUPF trolls, and intellectuals for hire praising Jonathan Moyo’s propaganda piece, along with many others who continue to benefit from this crooked regime. Sadly, some naive and opportunistic opposition activists joined in the attack backed by a fake news website.

I now ask the government’s chief propagandist, @nickmangwana, and his various surrogates to tell the nation whether this leaked document is true or not. Silence will confirm the document’s authenticity.

I also ask the opposition MPs in parliament if they will push back or they will grab the opportunity to drink from this poisoned well?

Towana Looney a 53-year-old volunteered to become the first living person in the world to get a kidney from a new kind of genetically modified pig. Scientists hope this kind of pig will someday provide an unlimited supply of kidneys, livers, hearts and other organs that could alleviate the chronic shortage of organs for transplantation and save thousands of patients every year.https://t.co/kph7eZRBt0 #Asakhe

UPDATE on Afreximbank's $1 billion African Film Fund: During the below #Berlinale2024 #AfroBerlin panel that I moderated today, I asked Victor Ekoko Mukete of Afreximbank about the $1 billion Africa film fund that the African trade organization announced late last year (see quoted tweet to catch up). Of the little he could reveal, he said that the earliest the fund could officially launch is in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Access details will come later, but filmmakers hoping to tap into the fund should be ready to meet certain criteria. These include demonstrating the strength and appeal of their project; the experience and past success of the filmmaker or production team; and *favorable* (specifics to come) projections of the project's performance when it enters the marketplace.

As I've emphasized previously, the fund (emphasis on the word "fund") is not a grant but an investment vehicle, implying that the chosen projects will need to have a path to profitability, as the fund will want a financial return on its investments.

The criteria collectively are to encourage *quality* (details to come on how that will be determined) in film production and producer/filmmaker business acumen.

Additionally, in collaboration with the AU (African Union) and AFI (African Film Institute), who were both represented on the panel, an African cinema ecosystem-building initiative is underway, starting with what they are calling a database of experienced film production talent on the continent.

More on all this later...
