No more going to see Victor or waiting for a tweet announcing your name as the next recipient of 💰. Its time to become a man, work, build, learn and stand on your own feet. No more being slay kings on this platform!
Dear @Welshman_Ncube and @hwendec,
As leaders of CCC, how do you explain your party’s decision to field Mduduzi Sibanda in the Bulawayo Ward 1 by-election when he is also a card-carrying ZANUPF member?
Is he standing against ZANUPF, standing for ZANUPF, or simply covering both sides so that he cannot lose? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I am surprised to see people acting all surprised about this "culture". This has actually worsened, become "normalised" in the Second Republic. The alphabet community has taken over most events in Zimbabwe anyway.
Dear Govt of 🇿🇼,
Perhaps it’s time to slow down on buying the latest Ford Raptors and other expensive vehicles for the next 2–3 years and put more of that money into actual service delivery.
Government officials need vehicles to do their work, no doubt. But a vehicle is not the only tool of trade needed to make a government institution functional.
What is the point of a new fleet when a clinic has no medicines, a school lacks basic learning materials, councils struggle with equipment, no adequate transport services, no adequate emergency response material and resources or government offices don’t have the basic resources to deliver services?
There has to be a balance between equipping officials and equipping institutions.
People don't experience government through the cars officials drive. They experience it through the services they receive or fail to receive.
You can't be spending too much on making government look equipped, while the institutions that serve citizens remain under-resourced.
Food for thought💡
You cannot tell the story of Mbuya Nehanda and leave out King Lobengula's role in Zimbabwe's First Chimurenga.
ZANU PF Bulawayo Provincial Chairman Cde Jabulani Sibanda has criticized the omission of King Lobengula from the NUST Heroes Day Photographic Exhibition, facilitated by the National Archives of Zimbabwe, arguing that Zimbabwe's liberation history must reflect the contributions of all its heroes.
When I spoke about the state of the Bulawayo–Victoria Falls Road and pointed out that rehabilitation work had stopped, I was speaking on the basis of facts.
Here is what Minister Mhona himself said:
"Yes, progress on the project had stopped, but this was due to financial limitations rather than the abandonment of the works."
According to @MhonaFelix , inadequate funding had significantly affected progress.
"This is one of the stalled projects I was talking about," Mhona said.
He added:
"Watch this space and, as we move towards August, you will see massive rehabilitation work resume. Those contractors will be mobilised again to their respective sections."
Acknowledging the reality on the ground is not negativity; it is accountability folks.
