How does the Zimbabwean Government feel watching this? Does it make them feel small, ashamed or embarrassed, or do they still have any part of a moral compass left in them? This is not just about Zimbabweans being targeted and turned away from South African hospitals, it is about...

The first sober thought I saw from a Zimbabwean on this issue, very different to your first reactive and impulsive take a few weeks ago. This is a conversation which desperately and urgently needs to be held in Zimbabwe instead of wasting their energy crying foul about South Africa finally reclaiming their government agencies from the hold of illegal immigrants and corrupt officials.

Zimbabwe government has been running away from it's responsibilities

You’re one of the few voices from Zimbabwe who acknowledges the real issue the responsibility lies squarely with the Zimbabwean administration. Zimbabwe is not a war-torn country, yet its citizens are forced to live in poverty due to decades of misrule. The land reform program, which could’ve been a turning point, was instead hijacked by political elites and ZANU-PF insiders, not used to uplift the ordinary Zimbabwean. Blaming South Africans for this failure is both dishonest and deflective. What has unfolded in Zimbabwe is a textbook case of administrative collapse something future Zimbabwean scholars should study in depth. We also have our own problems as a Country and we can’t be carrying you endlessly, it’s time you go and solve your problems.

The Zimbabwean government respects its own laws. They can't say much about people who jump to a lawless country.

But from a public health concern this will also have consequences on the south African citizens. Imagine maybe an STI outbreak and foreigners are not treated it wl spread like wildfire. Not to mention things like TB etc. They have to think this policy through

The main problem is they know they were never elected in the first place. So they dont give a hoot because they dont owe the nation their vote.

THE SOUTH AFRICAN HEALTH SYSTEM HAS COLLAPSED...!

I remember reporting almost two weeks ago about Zimbabweans camped outside the Zimbabwean Consulate in Cape Town. What I do not understand is this: these people have made it clear that they want to return home. We all know they did not plan for these circumstances. They have been stripped of their livelihoods and, in many cases, no longer have the financial means to get back to Zimbabwe. What stops the President from instructing the Minister of Finance and the relevant ministries to organise buses to transport our people from Cape Town back home? What stops the government from allowing them to cross the border with their personal goods and belongings without charging customs duty, given that this is clearly a humanitarian crisis? This is not a complicated policy issue. It is a basic act of leadership and compassion. What I struggle to understand about the Zimbabwean government is that you see men in expensive suits and women in elegant dresses, yet they fail to think in such simple, practical terms. At times like these, a government should be seen doing what governments are meant to do, protecting and assisting its citizens. South African media have reported on the plight of these Zimbabweans almost every day. The situation is neither hidden nor unknown. Yet there has been no meaningful humanitarian response from Harare. The government and its supporters will no doubt come up with all sorts of excuses. But this really is straightforward. Send buses. Bring your people home. Waive customs duties on their personal belongings. They have been forced into this situation by the climate of xenophobia and Afrophobia they have experienced in South Africa. A government’s responsibility is not to make excuses. It is to act.

Yes, indeed, this is lawlessness by any standard. Even by banana republic standards, this is still lawlessness. Your country has a constitution, it has a government, it has a police service, and it has a ruling party. I am sure you can see that some of the people there are actually wearing ruling party T-shirts. It is lawless regardless of whoever does it. It is an embarrassment to South Africa as a country, what you are doing and what you are encouraging people to do. Your country has an immigration service. If people are in your country illegally, they should be arrested and deported through lawful processes. You do not go around destroying property, tearing down markets, and attacking people. It is illegal regardless of whoever does it. It is not illegal because I have said so. It is illegal because the laws of your country make it so. This is vigilantism, pure and simple, and it is tainting the reputation of South Africa, not only across Africa but across the world. If you have got satellite television in your home, you can see that these actions are being reported everywhere. It is not good for your country. This kind of barbarism undermines the rule of law, fuels division, and damages South Africa’s standing as a constitutional democracy. It is the actions of a few that are tainting the reputation of many. The average South African is not mindless like this. They respect the law, and they respect the fact that among them, in their communities, there are people from other countries. If those people are in the country illegally, you report them and the law takes its course through proper processes of arrest and deportation. You do not descend into mob justice, lawlessness, and destruction. That is not who South Africans are, and it must not be normalised.

Tungwarara, let me speak to you not as an adversary, but as a man who once stood for something greater than himself. Do not take the people for granted. That is not what we fought for. That is not what comrades bled for. And it is certainly not the Zimbabwe we envisioned when we took up arms for liberation.I do not understand why President Mnangagwa continues to tolerate this nonsense. What happened in Rusape was not politics it was a disgrace. You gathered people under false pretenses, “lorried” them in from all corners, only to subject them to empty speeches and broken promises. You told them there would be food hampers. There were none. You said you came to empower them. You left them soaked, stranded, and humiliated in the rain, packed in trucks like cargo. Is this the new standard of leadership? Is this what we’ve become a nation of manipulators and deceivers, using the suffering of our people as props for political theatre? The people of Rusape are not fools. They are angry. They feel used. And they have every right to feel that way. They don’t want to see you again not because they are ungrateful, but because they are tired of being lied to, tired of being herded like livestock, and tired of being promised dignity only to be handed disrespect. Tungwarara, stop this madness. Leadership is not about optics. It is about service. It is about truth. It is about honour. And if you cannot offer those, then step aside for those who can.The Manicaland people deserve better.

The Zimbabwean Government has told both Zimbabweans living in South Africa and the South African government that it will not pay a cent towards healthcare services provided to Zimbabwean nationals in South African public hospitals. According to the South African government, 70% of women giving birth at Musina Hospital in Limpopo are Zimbabweans. Zimbabwe’s healthcare system collapsed years ago due to rampant corruption, forcing many citizens to seek medical care in neighbouring countries. Most Zimbabweans with serious health conditions turn to South Africa, while those from Mashonaland West and Matabeleland North often go to Zambia, where they receive free treatment. Zimbabweans without immigration documentation are being chased out of South African public hospitals by vigilante groups like Dudula. There is a huge illegal immigration crisis in South Africa, driven by the collapse of the Zimbabwean economy caused by corruption and rigged elections—elections which the ruling ANC in South Africa has openly endorsed. A nation that cannot treat its sick, run a decent economy without massive corruption, or hold free and fair elections has not just failed its people; it has exported its failure to neighbours now forced to carry the burden of its collapse. Sadly, the powerful ANC political elites in South Africa continue to turn a blind eye to ZANUPF’s delinquent behaviour, which has created a domestic crisis within South Africa itself.

This video, shared by a Zimbabwean woman on social media, shows a deeply tragic reality of our country, Zimbabwe. She refers to this as an international road. What she means is that it is a road that connects Zambia to Zimbabwe and then onward to South Africa. It is a major international trade route. The government of Zimbabwe collects toll fees on this road. It collects fuel taxes from vehicles that use it. It collects road motor tax. In total, it collects several different taxes linked directly to this road and to the movement of goods and people along it. Yet the road is in this shocking state. This is not an ordinary road. It is a critical regional artery linking Zambia, Zimbabwe, and South Africa. And yet it has been allowed to collapse like this. At the same time, the President goes around distributing cars to comedians using public money. Anyone who chants “2030” gets rewarded with a car by the President. How does anyone justify the desire to extend a presidential term to 2030 while presiding over a broken road system like this, in an economy that is clearly not working. You do not have to be a ZANUPF supporter or an opposition supporter to see that this is wrong. We are all Zimbabweans. We all love our country, or at least we should. But this does not show love. This does not show pride. There is no pride in allowing an international trade route, a symbol of national sovereignty and economic seriousness, to deteriorate to this level. The money is there. It is being collected daily. But it is being abused. It is being looted. And anyone who defends this level of mediocrity is defending failure. I see some Zimbabweans, especially those who have just returned from Europe or America, posting videos claiming that everything is fine in Zimbabwe. They are lying to the world. Everything is not fine. It cannot be fine when an international trade route looks like this. How can anyone sincerely attempt to spin the reality of their own country through crude and dishonest propaganda. This is the Zimbabwe that exists today. This is the reality. If they cannot fix an international trade route, imagine the condition of other roads across the country. I have received many videos from Zimbabweans, including those based in South Africa who are currently at home, expressing shock at the state of the road network. I have not shared all of them because I am mentally tired with this. I am mentally drained from constantly documenting collapse. What makes this worse is the silence of the opposition. Those who claim to be the alternative do not talk about these things. I saw an opposition member of parliament praising the Minister of Transport as the top performing minister, the same minister responsible for this road system. The political elites of Zimbabwe have failed the people. It cannot be left to journalists to do political work while those who claim to be the alternative remain quiet as public funds are looted. This is deeply depressing. Not everyone has options. Our people are trapped and forced to live with this mediocrity every day. It is painful to watch my country go through this. I appeal to ZANUPF supporters. We all know that your party will still be in power after 2028. That reality is clear. But why can you not put pressure on your party’s leadership to address this state of affairs in our country? We do not hate ZANUPF supporters. We simply disagree with them politically. And even in disagreement, I am appealing to you to have a sense of pride in yourselves and in your country. Ask your own leaders difficult questions. Ask them whether this is how they want their political party to be remembered in history, in years and generations to come. Power without accountability leaves a dark legacy. No political party escapes judgment by history. The roads, hospitals, schools, and livelihoods left behind will speak louder than slogans. This is about Zimbabwe, not party loyalty.

This is a Zimbabwean teacher in South Africa, humiliated like this by fellow Africans. Her problems were authored by Emmerson Mnangagwa and ZANUPF in Zimbabwe. When she tried to fight back, the South African ruling party, the ANC, labelled people like her as Western sell-outs. The ANC sent delegations, led by its secretary-general and its youth leader, to show solidarity with Mnangagwa’s corrupt rule, which has driven Zimbabweans onto South African soil creating social flush points. I am not a prophet, but I can assure you that the ANC’s continued support for ZANUPF and Mnangagwa will result in more lost votes in the 2026 elections. It is that simple. You cannot support a thief next door who is starving his children, leading them to end up on your doorstep, and not expect political consequences. Botswana’s former ruling party, the BDP, was warned about the same ZANUPF phenomenon. Like the ANC, it ignored it. Today, it is in opposition. We do not live in a binary world. It is a fact that ZANUPF and Mnangagwa have authored this crisis. It is also a fact that the ANC has supported ZANUPF’s failed leadership. It is equally true that many Zimbabwean immigrants naturally sought better opportunities in South Africa because of this problem. It is also a fact that South African citizens are frustrated by being forced to share depleted social services with foreign nationals. All these things are facts. However, it takes real leadership to know how to respond to the crisis. At present, the leadership chair is empty, some are paying bribes, some are receiving them on both sides of Limpopo. Meanwhile, the voters will have the final say in South Africa, because it is a democracy. One day, we shall write about the ANC in the past tense, if the leadership chair remains empty. The distinction between black-led South Africa and Zimbabwe, and white-led South Africa and Rhodesia, was that the whites told each other the truth when they met. They would not allow an entire country to sink just to placate a neighbouring corrupt leader. South Africa is now sinking, with poverty-stricken citizens who are genuinely out of the formal economy. Illegal immigration is the last headache it needs in a Trumpian world. When Ian Smith tried to pull a ZANUPF on John Vorster, he was told to voetsek. President Cyril Ramaphosa needs to show leadership by confronting ZANUPF, but from all I know, he won’t. Both the Zimbabwean teacher and the South African nurses are victims of failed leadership. Hospitals are dilapidated in Zimbabwe, and Fikile Mbalula shouts, “Viva President Mnangagwa.” You could not make this sh*t up. When South African hospitals are swarmed, the same ANC cries the same immigration tune. But who is facilitating it?

This video would break anyone’s heart if they have one; it shows a young Zimbabwean woman being subjected to a vicious xenophobic attack in South Africa at Kalafong Hospital. She was shouted at like a communal dog. This is what Zimbabweans have been subjected and reduced to by Emmerson Mnangagwa’s corrupt regime. This is the direct result of Mnangagwa’s looting of public funds! Setting aside the ugly xenophobic attack, I have always said that 2,500 Zimbabwean women die annually giving birth inside Zimbabwe. 300 babies died this year in January alone during childbirth in Zimbabwe, these are official hospital figures which don’t include those who died at home. The biggest hospital in Zimbabwe, Sally Mugabe Hospital, only has one maternity theatre, built in 1977 by Ian Smith. The ZANUPF government has never built a single maternity theatre at the country’s biggest hospital in the 45 years it has been in power, nothing, yet it costs only US$37,000 to build one. The healthcare crisis in Zimbabwe is caused by a thieving president who doesn’t care one bit about how the people he is ruling (not leading) are living. He steals the money meant to build and maintain hospitals so that his people don’t die unnecessarily. This woman in the video represents thousands of women who, out of fear of dying, are crossing the border to give birth in South Africa. According to South Africa’s health minister, Dr Aaron Motsoaledi, 70% of women giving birth at Limpopo’s Musina Hospital are Zimbabwean. Yet for a few Landcruisers, Zimbabwe could remove this embarrassment and build maternity theatres for itself. Shamelessly, South Africa’s ruling party, the ANC, supports and publicly declares its undying solidarity with ZANUPF and corrupt Mnangagwa, the very people who have authored the illegal migrant crisis that is bedevilling South Africa today. We know of this incident because it was video-recorded, but there are thousands more happening without a cell phone recording them, thousands more Zimbabwean women being degraded and publicly humiliated like this simply because of a corrupt president back in Harare! This level of indignity and lack of respect is brought to us by ZANUPF and Mnangagwa’s insatiable appetite for stealing public funds, and he does it brazenly, without any sense of shame! For how long shall Zimbabweans continue being humiliated like this? For how long shall the ANC continue giving solidarity to a retrogressive party like ZANUPF? For how long shall President Ramaphosa continue watching while Mnangagwa keeps piling problems on his doorstep? Until Zimbabweans realise that this corrosive abuse is sponsored by Mnangagwa’s well known and recorded thieving, we are damned!

Exploring big questions about the universe is crucial for developing critical thinking and rationality. The Importance of Big Questions - Zafar Mirzo Zafar Mirzo Quote 1. Raising all sorts of interesting and big questions about the boundaries and mysteries of the universe and contemplating them is very important, for only such reflections guarantee the development of the ability to think critically, logically, and rationally. Quote 2. The ultimate questions about our world: Why does it exist? In what way does it exist? Does it have a purpose? Could it have not existed at all? Could reality be such that no intelligent being would have appeared? Why does it have the ability to give birth to intelligence? Why is the world the way it is? Why is it so whimsical? What is its structure? Is it finite or infinite? Has it always existed or does it have a beginning? Does it have a prime cause? What lies beyond its limits? Is it eternally evolving or destined to decline in the future? Can intelligent beings live forever? Is the world knowable or not? Quote 3. The more rational and active spirituality is, the more authentic and fruitful it is. Quote 4. For spirituality to be capable of maximum productivity, it must have a comprehensive rational basis. Quote 5. Before denying scientific knowledge about the origin of the human being, first investigate how these facts were collected and study them to understand what they convey.

I watched this video posted by a tourist in Zimbabwe who has been promoting Zimbabwean tourism on his journey across the country. My first instinct was to ask, what is this? There are times when we do not just have to criticise, but must look for solutions. I think this is not a tourism problem, it is a policing problem that affects tourism, and it is a problem that does not just affect tourists but Zimbabweans as well who are driving across the country. The solution, in my view, is straightforward. When tourists enter our country, at the point of the border, they should be required to purchase all the necessary road safety paraphernalia demanded by the Zimbabwean police. First of all, I do not understand why one needs four triangles. Triangles are meant for when your car breaks down, you place one at the back and one at the front, that is two triangles. This tourist had three, yet he was told he needed four. I do not know why he needed four. But even if, for argument’s sake, he needed a hundred, then tell him at the border that he needs a hundred, and that there is a shop there selling them, even if it is a government-run shop. Make it a requirement that no motorist drives out of the border clearing area without the required triangles. They must buy them there and then. When they get to the exit gate, at that final clearing bay, they show the triangles and proceed, so that they do not encounter problems on the roads. If this is not done, you create situations like this one, where the Ministry of Tourism is dragged into an issue that has nothing to do with it, yet its work ends up being affected because of the ineffectiveness and lack of coordination among different government agencies. The requirement for triangles falls under the Ministry of Home Affairs, which superintends the police, so it must ensure that before any vehicle is cleared to leave the border, it complies. In most countries, you do not need four triangles. I have seen this absurdity in Zimbabwe only, and I experienced it. I own a car which has inbuilt reflectors, factory-fitted safety reflectors that perform the same function. Yet when you get to a Zimbabwean roadblock, they still want to see a separate portable reflector, even though the inbuilt system does the same job. This is a breakdown of common sense, and it does not just affect tourists, it affects Zimbabweans too. So instead of simply criticising, I chose to offer a solution. The responsible government agency and ministry must make it a requirement that any motorist entering the country has the stipulated triangles before they are cleared to leave the border. And if they do not have the four triangles, as required, as ridiculous as it sounds, there must be a facility at the border where they can purchase them and then proceed with their journey without harassment.

Some souls are so beautiful because they are brave. They see the pain carried by their parents, they understand where the decay began and how it spread - still, they do their best not to let it rot them from within. There are those who have been hurt by their parents, yet still love them, not because their parents were perfect but because they choose to love what is imperfect and to honour the origin point of a part of themselves. Yet many carry immense guilt even in admitting their parents failed them. Their compassion is so great that they hold themselves back from facing the full weight of the truth they deserve, always one step removed, always at arm's length, unable to let it land because of that guilt. But the body remembers. The truth is, both can be true. You can despise the decay and pain that has been unleashed upon you without guilt and honour your own suffering, your own journey - at the same time, you can acknowledge how your parents came to be as they are, through the weight of their own unhealed and unresolved pain. Similarly, those who feel immense resentment and hate towards their parents often find, in the quiet moments before they fall asleep, that a part of them still longs to connect - a subtle whisper of desire always remains, because they carry hope. Hate is just corroded love, it is not indifference. It is love unresolved and suspended, pooled like still water. The most heartbreaking part is that they feel disgust, sometimes even hatred, towards themselves for wanting this. Yet no matter how much they rationalise, a part of them will always long for it. And it is okay to want this. It does not make them weak or pathetic. The polarity must be felt in full, and then accepted in its entirety, on both ends. The greatest wars are not fought between angels and demons, but in the hearts of those who carry the deepest wounds.
