2. I will commend the opposition if it performs well, & I will criticize them if they are lacking.
3. If the ruling party excels, I will give credit, & if it falters, I will highlight it.

With the way Noah Lyles came out, all hyped up, jumping all over the place like a jumping jack, now he has COVID-19 😂😂😂. What a lame excuse!
It's ironic how the COVID didn’t affect him until after he lost to Tebogo Letsile.

Good morning Zimbabwe
There is nothing tribal about asking for a better signage, Bulawayo has always been a cultural and heritage city. Taking down that signage takes away the city's cultural identity. I implore the city fathers and stakeholders to engage Govt on this.

One thing i know about Simelisizwe Sibanda is that he is a true patriot & not a tribalist. He handled this issue in an unorthodox manner, but raised key concerns. How was the teacher going to teach ECD kids when there was no common language between the kids & the teacher?
Hypothetically speaking, suppose I purchase my Starlink kit and services from South Africa or Zambia and choose not to go with IMC.

1. Vic Falls & Hwange can easily generate over $400 million in tourism revenue annually & can self-fund the rehab of the road from Bulawayo to Vic Falls. Rehabilitation means safer travel, increased tourism, revenue & a flourishing local economy.
Let's break it down [A Thread].
As part of their benefits:
1. Chiefs receive free cars.
2. Members of Parliament are provided with free cars.
3. Cabinet Ministers are given free cars.
4. Other govt officials enjoy similar perks, including free cars.
While citizens receive nothing & are taxed their lungs out!

In Zanu-PF we have zero stress, we know we win some and lose only a few. Where we lose, we lose with respectable margins. Where we win, we win with VERY BIG number.
Zanu-PF is here to stay for another 43 years and add another 43 on top.
