Pafeya Zimbabweans are a clever, innovative and resourceful people. Listen carefully to this short clip and you will understand exactly what I am saying.
Sometimes, the biggest opportunities are hidden in plain sight. We simply need the right vision, creativity and determination to unlock them. @zanupfbyoinfo@edmnangagwa #innovation #NDS2 #NyikaInovakwaNeVeneVayo @CityofBulawayo@CCCforChange234
Removing the "fragile state" classification marks a major turning point for Zimbabwe's economic standing, signaling stronger structural resilience and renewed international trust🇿🇼
Corrupt land barons, fake developers, and unauthorized local figures (masabhuku) profit immensely by illegally partitioning land, including wetlands and private property. When the inevitable court orders are enforced to clear these illegal settlements, the perpetrators walk away with their money, while Government takes all the lashing and blame from devastated families.
Today, I had the honor of virtually connecting with leaders, experts, and partners at the 8th Meeting of the International Solar Alliance (ISA) Regional Committee for Africa, proudly hosted in our beautiful resort city of Victoria Falls, Mosi-oa-Tunya. Zimbabwe is humbled by the global community's confidence in our nation to host this pivotal summit.
We remain deeply committed to advancing Africa's critical role in the global energy transition agenda. We commend Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India and President Emmanuel Macron of France for their ongoing commitment to strengthening solar energy partnerships with Africa. Africa possesses some of the world’s richest natural endowments.
Our solar resources must be viewed as vital instruments to industrialize, modernize, and scale up access to essential services in line with the African Union Agenda 2063. We must deploy greater leverage around regional and continental financing platforms, maximizing regional electricity markets and shared infrastructure.
Our transition must be just, inclusive, and leave no one and no place behind. We bear a shared responsibility to empower our women and youth as central participants—whether as entrepreneurs, technicians, engineers, or investors. We must strengthen local capacity to manufacture, adapt, install, and maintain solar technologies. Initiatives like the Solar Technology Application Resource Centre (STAR-C) are welcome initiatives that will contribute to increased technical knowledge, training, and skills transfer to our young people.
The International Solar Alliance provides us with an excellent framework to optimize our solar potential, secure our energy systems, and uplift our people. Together, let us harness the power of the sun to bring prosperity to Zimbabwe and the entire African continent!
🖤 FRIDAY IS THE PEOPLE’S DAY OF MOURNING 🖤
As citizens and supporters of our government, we recognize the efforts being made by our government in addressing the tragedy. True support also means standing together in collective grief as governments works together with the grieving families.
To honor and remember the souls tragically lost in the Kariba Ferry Disaster due to preventable HUMAN error from the captain and the unforgiving Binga Wave, we are dedicating this Friday as a day of unity, remembrance, and solidarity with the grieving families.
How to Participate:
1. 100 Seconds of Silence: At 12:00 PM, stop wherever you are to offer 100 seconds of quiet reflection one second for every life lost.
2. Wear Black: Wear black clothing throughout the day as a visible sign of our shared grief and solidarity.
3. Blackout Your Profile: Change your profile pictures across all social media platforms to a plain black image for the entire day.
We mourn together, we honor their memory together.
Please share, spread the word, and join us this Friday.

Today, I had the privilege of witnessing the signing of a landmark 25-year Special Mining Lease Agreement between the Government of Zimbabwe and Karo Platinum (part of Tharisa Plc).
This major milestone secures long-term tenure over a 23,903-hectare mining area on our mineral-rich Great Dyke.This project is a direct outcome of the vision we launched in 2018. With over US$240 million already invested in plant establishment, mining fleets, water and power infrastructure, and community development, Phase 1 alone is set to create up to 1,000 jobs for our people.
This fully compliant agreement—signed on behalf of the Government by Mines and Mining Development Minister Eng. Polite Kambamura and Finance Minister Prof. Mthuli Ncube—underscores our commitment to transparency, legal certainty, and investor security.We are unlocking our nation's vast mineral wealth to drive sustainable industrial growth, create decent employment, and uplift communities.
Together, we build Zimbabwe!
