This is what fifty five looks like.Taking kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. No dye, just cut and trim. Like climbing a mountain getting older lives you a little out of breath. But once you are at the top, the view is so much better.

History repeats itself.Ian Smith banned both ZANU & ZAPU forcing them to go underground & their only medium of operation was the people. No structures,no websites,the people executed the liberation struggle & ultimately winning the 1980 election! ZANU & ZAPU only unbanned in 1978

My mother, Amai Margaret Dongo remains unequaled as the โ€˜Iron lady of Zimbabwean politics. She is a well of knowledge of the liberation struggle and much more. I sat down with her a few weeks ago. Fellow citizens and well wishers genuinely interested in documenting this knowledge

Iam for fair political competition, but wiery of personalising the political journey. Focus should be on building strong political institutions, that way the caprices & weaknesses of individuals can be checked! Idolising an individual has been Zimbabwe's curse & continues to be!

The world is now a global village. This is not just a Zimbabwean issue. It impacts world financial systems! Illicit money flows are known to fund terror & other international transgressions!

Which ever way you slice it, sanctions were a retaliation to the land acquisition exercise. Iam not happy with the govt of the day. But when it comes to the sanctions matter, I stand on principle. No country should unilaterally sanction another! Only the @UN holds that mandate!

Kutonga Nyika nema Statutory Instruments is the hallmark of the 2nd Republic! Why declare something to be "in the public interest" & then say it shall not be "publicly declared". What an oxymoron! It is a fundamental breach to conceal expenditure using the public purse. In a

Iam reliably informed Birchnough bridge is seriously unstable. Allowing one car at a time to pass! I drove past this bridge regularly 25 years ago. Even then, there were times it was considered unstable. @MinistryofTID @MhonaFelix any reason why bridge canโ€™t be properly repaired!

Condolences Zimbabwe on the death of #SKMoyo . A man of conflicted allegiances. Once Mugabeโ€™s party spokesperson, tasked with firing #ED later worked for the same. Absence of principle personified. A true product of patronage system that reduces grown man to children! MHSRIP!๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ

The family of former President Robert Mugabe make an interesting & valid point. Grace Mugabe is a 'muroora' she didn't bury Mugabe, the Matibiri's did, his family. Why is she being prosecuted!

Shingi Mutasa is a dangerous man. Iam shocked that such a seemingly respectable businessman can stand in front of citizens & glorify a military coup. What happened in Nov 2017 was nothing short of the unconstitutional removal of a sitting elected president. It is shocking that

ZANU PF & ZAPU running up to independence had no structures. No women/Youth league, nothing! They only knew of their leaders. #RGM & #NKOMO (MTRIP)They interacted with the people thru night vigils (pungwe) Ian Smith had outlawed these parties.They won 1980 elections nevertheless!
