🚨 BREAKING!!!
Pep Guardiola didn’t arrive at Man City and inherit Pellegrini’s squad for five years.
City cleared the decks.
2016: Hart loaned out. Nasri gone. Bony gone. Mangala gone. Demichelis gone.
2017: Zabaleta gone. Clichy gone. Sagna gone. Navas gone. Nolito gone. Iheanacho gone. Fernando gone. Caballero gone.
Then City gave Guardiola Ederson, Walker, Mendy, Danilo, Bernardo Silva.
That is what backing a new manager looks like.
Now compare that with United.
New manager. Same players.
Another manager. Same players.
Another rebuild. Same players.
Shaw has been here since 2014. Dalot since 2018. Maguire since 2019.
How many managers are these players supposed to outlast before United finally admit the squad needs a proper reset?
Guardiola got a squad built for his football. United keep asking managers to build football around the leftovers.
That is the difference.
Stop blaming every new manager for problems the club refuses to remove.
If you want a new era, you have to actually end the old one.
To all the Gafas who came through for Tête-à-Tête Season 2, I offer my deepest gratitude. The concert could have lasted for just one night, but the faith that brought you to attend this event was built over more than two decades, in which you have stood by my works as both listeners and believers in a musical mission shaped by truth, consciousness and purpose.
Wisdom dictates that leadership is not measured by how far one walks ahead of others, but by how intentionally one walks with them. The distance and time my music has travelled, has been possible simply because you have carried it in your hearts, defended its purpose and related your own stories within it.
Tête-à-Tête Season 2 was a reminder that music carries greater force when it awakens thought and gives a voice to those who may otherwise remain unheard. Thank you for growing with me through every season, for embracing the evolution of the sound and for continuing to believe in the mission behind the music. The stage could have carried my voice, yet the movement belongs to all of us.
The journey continues, enjoy the new project roll out.

Things might not work out today,or tomorrow but they have a habit of working out as long as you keep trying!
I pray that they do work out for us before we give up!
Nick mangwana is really pathetic , after 44 people died he openly said it could have been worse , now more bodies have been found , it’s officially worse and he still won’t admit the gvt has failed it’s people 😒😒😒😒😒
Part of growing up is realizing you’re not above anything. Homelessness, job loss, heartbreak, illness, failure, even death can happen to anyone. Life can humble you overnight. Stay grateful, stay grounded, and never look down on someone struggling.
🔸If there is no law in place, why is anyone being arrested? Or harassed? Surely those officers are acting unlawfully and arbitrarily? Hopefully, the Mayor will call them to order.
We need new leaders.🇿🇼
Please think twice before sharing the Kariba boat disaster video. Even if you are criticising those who posted it, quoting the video causes more hurt because you are spreading it widely. Let us come together to respect the privacy of the affected families during this painful time. 💔🫶🇿🇼
Harare is cracking down on InDrive drivers. Here's the wild part: nobody in this fight is actually wrong. The driver can't get a licence (there isn't one). The council really isn't benefiting. So who IS wrong?
I would like Cabinet, Parliament and council to sit with this photograph for an afternoon.
In fact, every high school teacher, whatever the subject, should ask students to write an essay on what they see here. The answers would probably take us closer to the solution to Zimbabwe’s problems than most policy papers.
Every boardroom should spend time with it too. For good measure, the Zimra board should take it on a weekend retreat and ask its economists to calculate how much OK has paid in taxes over the past decade.
Then they should look again at the pavement outside.
I am keeping this photograph for my book.
Constitutions are not and should not be built around personalities; they must be founded on enduring principles and values. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link, and constitutions must be designed to survive the rainy day because they cannot be amended every time circumstances change.
Even if, for argument’s sake, ED knows what he is doing (a claim that requires a large suspension of disbelief), what if the next president is terrible? Do we then rewrite the constitution and cut the term to three months to suit their incompetence? Nation‑building cannot be driven by ephemeral interests, whatever their motivation. That is why CAB3 is a product of thoughtless delinquency, championed by people who have neither won an election nor built anything in the fields they claim to represent.
The guys in the photo below are both tall and short, depending on their environment—but they are both men, subject to one unchanging standard.
