🚨🚨$5000 FOR 1ST PLACE AFTER MD17 🔥🔥

Scottland FC players will get US$5000 EACH if the team is top of the Castle Lager Premier Soccer League standings after the first round of the 2026 season.

The team is currently in second place, on inferior goal difference, with two more @CastleLagerPSL matches to come against Herentals (away) and Triangle (home).

Today the players got MORE THAN the windfall they had been promised by club president, Honourable Pedzai “Scott” Sakupwanya for beating Caps United (2-0) at the National Sports Stadium on Sunday.

The players got US$2000 each for the win ($1500) and the dominant display ($500) in the victory over the former league leaders.

@nickmangwana Meanwhile , govt. efficiency looks like this for the entire nation. SAD!

The only relevance of what is to unfold in Parliament in the next few days with the 2030 Bill is to expose the current Parliament as an anti-people institution abusing power for personal benefits. That exposure will strengthen the people for TOTAL REJECTION after the charade.

🔸For context, this is the Hoima City Stadium in Uganda.

Now compare it with that 1980s style embarassment that Govt is parading as a renovated stadium. You half expect road runner chickens to pop out of that dusty erstwhile athletics track.

It’s a mess.

We need new leaders.🇿🇼

Never be scared of dominant public opinion. We have been here many times before with; Abortion, Corporal Punishment, GBV, women’s equality, Homosexuality and tribalism.

But logic, justice & the power of truth always wins.

Xenophobia will not win! Love, Law & Order will!

Fuel price increase triggers fears of Food price hikes

TIRI MASAWI
The Minister of Industries, Mines and Energy Modestus Amutse  has approved a fuel price increase that will see petrol going up by N$ 1.40 per litre, diesel 50ppm by N$ 4.63 per litre and diesel 10ppm by N$ 4.63 per litre - triggering fears of a chain reaction that could see prices of goods and services going up.
According to the announcement made on Thursday the new  pump price will be N$ 23.48 per litre for petrol 95ppm, N$ 28.26 per litre for diesel 50ppm and N$ 28.36 per litre for diesel 10ppm.
Amutse said the government is implementing a raft of measures to cushion consumers from potential price increases in the near future.

📹 South African President Cyril Ramaphosa had no prior warning that “a person of interest” to South African law enforcement would be present during his meeting with President Emmerson Mnangagwa in Kwekwe last Sunday, his spokesman says in apparent reference to Wicknell Chivayo

[Bulelani Phillip @BulelaniPhillip]

(WATCH) Presidential spokesman Vincent Magwenya says President Cyril Ramaphosa went to Zimbabwe at the invitation of President Emmerson Mnangagwa over the weekend. He says the President is concerned & was unaware that one of Zim delegates is a person of interest in SA. #sabcnews

@GaytonMcK Good morning minister
Blaming illegal immigrants for the rampant crime in South Africa is disingenuous.With or without migrants SA is a very violent society because of poverty . If migrants are breaking laws it’s minute number compared to locals.

@nickmangwana You do know in a functional country where there are decent jobs and functioning middle class none needs the pittance of a First Lady to tour their country right? You ought to know better that trinkets like these are degrading to our people.
