#SecurityCordonsOffAfricaUnitySquare Zimbabwean security forces have cordoned off the historic Africa Unity Square in central Harare to prevent would-be street protesters, fearing the threatened one million man march - an anti-government protest - against President Emmerson Mnangagwa's bid to extend his controversial rule that constitutionally ends in 2028 to 2030... show more

This is how bad and pathetic the water situation in Zimbabwe’s capital city, Harare, has become. A borehole is being drilled on Kaguvi Street, outside HT Tyres. This is what corruption does to a country, central government controls everything in councils, resulting in this collapse. In cities like Harare, the need for boreholes reflects how corruption and central government interference have crippled local authorities, stripping them of the capacity to provide basic services. Boreholes in central business districts indicate that the municipal water supply system has failed. In a functioning city, clean and reliable piped water should be standard, particularly in central areas. Most of Harare, including the most affluent areas, does not receive piped water at all. The Water Act clearly states that Central Government (ZANUPF Government) should build dams! This has not been done due to rampant historic corruption. Harare and its dormitory towns rely on Lake Chivero, which was constructed by the colonial government in 1952 to provide clean drinking water for Harare and its surrounding areas, with a total population of 300,000 people. Today, it serves the Harare metropolitan area and satellite towns such as Chitungwiza, Epworth, Norton, and Ruwa with a total population of around 4.5 million people. The same lake that provides drinking water also receives untreated sewage. Residents have resorted to boreholes, sadly, something the last colonial ruler Ian Smith predicted would happen. How tragic that predictions once dismissed as racist have now come to pass.

The economic crisis in Zimbabwe is self-evident and well explained at ZANUPF election rallies where citizens are reduced to scavenging for bread, which is used as bait for people to attend these election rallies. The fact that the ruling party would do this to citizens and sees nothing wrong with it defines the type of leadership that has ruined this once prosperous country beyond recognition of what it used to be for its people! Corrupt rule has dehumanised Zimbabweans beyond description. They fell from Mugabe’s political gutter to Mnangagwa’s corrupt rule that has sunk them into the sewer!

This video shows the home of Gilbert Bgwende, a member of the Constitutional Defence Forum, engulfed in flames in the early hours of yesterday in Highfield in Harare. Bgwende is one of the members of the Constitutional Defence Forum who have been vocal in opposing President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s bid to extend his rule to 2030. According to witnesses, the arsonists arrived in three black cars, ordered the occupants to vacate the house, poured a flammable substance, and set it ablaze. Two police officers are currently on the scene, but the house has been completely destroyed and is now uninhabitable. The seminar room at SAPES, which was meant to be used by a group of civil society and political leaders to launch their resistance against President Mnangagwa’s 2030 term extension, was also torched in the early hours of yesterday and completely gutted to the ground. The attack, coming just hours before the planned press conference, underscores the regime’s growing desperation to silence dissenting voices and suppress any organised opposition to the 2030 agenda. Interestingly, the 2030 Agenda has inadvertently breathed new life into opposition politics in Zimbabwe. Where there was once apathy and fragmentation in response to the country’s political decay, the push for a term extension has now united groups and individuals who were previously divided, bringing together former rivals under a common cause to resist it. In attempting to consolidate power, the regime has instead rekindled political consciousness and solidarity among those determined to defend Zimbabwe’s constitutional order.

BREAKING: Mass protests have erupted in Kyiv, Ukraine against President Volodymyr Zelensky. This is the first known major protest against the Ukrainian leader. Thousands of people have turned out in the streets of Kyiv to protest moves by Zelensky’s government to block anti-corruption measures. The vote targeted the independence of Ukraine’s anti-corruption bodies, including the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) that was made infamous with Joe Biden's threats against the prosecutor investigating Hunter Biden's corrupt activity at Burisma. The Ukraine government is also becoming increasingly unpopular due to Zelensky's refusal to seek an end to the war. Zelensky has established control over state media, outlawed over a dozen political parties, and has suspended democratic elections while he is in power.

March against drugs or Samjhauta Express? My humble question to Hon Punjab Governor Shri Ghulab Chand Kataria Ji whether the march he is leading against drugs is actually a campaign against drugs or an attempt to run the ‘Samjhuta Express’ and prepare ground for forging Akali-BJP alliance in the state. Before leading the march did you raise the matter with the Union Home Ministry under whose jurisdiction the border security falls. The BSF jurisdiction has been expanded upto 50 kms inside the borders. While the AAP government has completely failed already, what is the central government doing to prevent smuggling of drugs from across the border. I would request you to raise the matter with the union Home Ministry before running the ‘Samjhauta Express’ for an Akali-BJP alliance in the name of anti-drug march. I must add, the pictures of the ‘march’ look too “nice” to be overlooked for the “obvious message” they carry and convey.

💥🇺🇦Ukrainian cities have been engulfed by protests against Law #12414, which de facto eliminates the independence of anti-corruption bodies In Kyiv, around a hundred people gathered for the protest. Media reports also say that residents of Dnipro, Lviv, and Odesa have taken to the streets. People are holding signs that say the dissolution of NABU is the dissolution of the people’s trust, calling what’s happening a disgrace. 🇪🇺The European Commission has also commented on the limitation of powers of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office, calling it a "serious step back."

BYC condemns the use of force against the family members of Zaheer Baloch and other peaceful protesters in the strongest terms. Today, the 11-day sit-in protest by the families of forcibly disappeared Baloch individuals was attacked by the forces when they were marching towards the Red Zone. Elderly men, women, and children were subjected to brutal violence, including live firing. Dozens of protesters were taken into custody and shifted to unknown locations. For decades, the state institutions' response to peaceful demonstrations has been violence and intimidation. The forced disappearances and genocide of the Baloch people continue, and when the families and civil society protest, they are treated with cruelty, beaten, dragged, and imprisoned. After facing severe crackdown, the protesters have reorganized and continued their protest. We urge the Baloch and Pashtun people to join the protest as soon as possible and call on the judiciary to intervene in this matter to safeguard the right to peaceful assembly of these already victimized people.

Pakistan's oppression of occupied #Kashmir is worsening. As the world's attention is largely fixated on the war between Israel and Hamas in the Middle East, unrest has erupted in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir in South Asia. Tensions are rising in Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK) as the Pakistani government has been deploying troops from Punjab Province to suppress the imminent protests in the region due May 11. The protests aim to address the Kashmiri people's economic, social and political problems that Pakistan's government has failed to solve. The United Kashmir People's National Party (UKPNP) and the Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC) have issued warnings to the government of Pakistan against the use of any force against protestors. The warnings have apparently been ignored as Pakistan mobilized its troops to the area, leading to more protests. Historical background info: "In 1947, the Princely State of Jammu and Kashmir became part of the Republic of #India. Shortly thereafter, Pakistani armed forces and Pashtun tribesmen invaded the area, forcing the largest Kashmiri political party to approve the accession. Indian forces were deployed to counter the attacks by Pakistan. In 1948, the UN Security Council passed Resolution 47 requiring all Pakistani military personnel to withdraw from the region before a plebiscite—which would have confirmed the people’s wishes to join India—could be called. Instead of this Pakistan increased its military presence, and no plebiscite was held. In the areas of Kashmir which remained outside of India, Pakistan Occupied Kashmir, 41,000 Hindu families were forced to flee from Pashtun tribesmen. "The historic region of Kashmir has a total area of 85,807 sq. miles and is now divided between three countries. Pakistan occupies approximately 30,160 sq. miles, known as (PoK) and the Northern Areas." Clashes between Pakistani troops and Kashmiri locals are expected to further escalate.

Large-scale protests have been continuing in Iran for five days now. They were triggered by a sharp collapse of the national currency and a rapid surge in prices. Inflation has reached around 40%, while food prices have risen by 60-70%. The rial at one point fell to 1.4 million per US dollar. This led to demonstrations which, in several provinces, escalated into violent clashes with security forces. According to human rights groups and media reports, at least six people have been killed, dozens wounded, and more than a hundred protesters detained. There are also reports of casualties among security forces, including members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the Basij militia. Amid the protests, demonstrators are burning symbols of the regime, including monuments to General Qasem Soleimani, who was killed by the United States on January 3, 2020. Authorities have introduced heightened security measures and effectively imposed martial law in certain cities. The United States, the United Kingdom, and Israel have expressed support for the protesters, saying the unrest reflects the accumulated anger of Iranian society over the ayatollahs’ regime’s failed economic policies.

Help! International Community During the past days, the occupying forces of Iran, under the command of Khamenei, killed the peaceful uprising of our nation's children in the cities of Kermanshah, Lorestanat and Bakhtiari with direct fire. Today, in the brutal attack of the Islamic Republic troops on the peaceful march of the people of Malekshahi, Ilam, at least 7 young people of the Kurdish nation have died and dozens of people have been injured without access to hospitals. In addition to this, the government forces raid people's homes and have arbitrarily arrested dozens of people and made their fate unknown. While condoling the families of the victims and condemning this crime against humanity, I demand from President Trump, the heads of free countries and international organizations to take quick measures to prevent the killing of the people of Kurdistan, Lorestan and Bakhtiari, which have now become the focus of the uprising against the Islamic Republic. Our people in these areas need to implement the principle of “Responsibility to Protect” and establish a “No-Fly Zone” to be safe from massacre. Kurdistan and the Kurdish nation are strong actors in containing Tehran and in solidarity with the international community. The Islamic Republic must pay the price for this crime. #Trump #NoFlyZone #R2P

#BreakingNews Seventy Zimbabwean MPs from different parts of the country are currently at the Mabelreign District Office in Harare, receiving pieces of land as a bribe not to vote against Emmerson Mnangagwa in an impeachment vote. These MPs are from both the ruling ZANUPF party and the purported opposition, CCC. The land they are receiving is also part of the payment they were promised in exchange for supporting Mnangagwa’s bid to extend his term of office to 2030. The land is being taken from greenways in Ward 16 in Mabelreign and in Westgate. The allocation of this land was done by Mnangagwa’s 2030 supporter and trumpet, the Local Government Minister, Daniel Garwe. Media houses—rush there now, they are still at the Mabelreign District Office. * Greenways are strips of natural land, within urban or suburban areas, that are preserved for environmental and recreational purposes. They include parks, walking paths, cycling trails, or undeveloped natural corridors like woodlands or wetlands. They help manage stormwater, protect biodiversity, reduce urban heat, and provide communities with access to green space. When governments seize or allocate greenways for development—especially for political favours—it must spark public outrage because it destroys communal, environmental, and recreational assets.

In Malir, Karachi, raids on the homes of Baloch political activists and violence against women and children are part of the state's policy of Baloch Genocide.

Thousands of people have taken to the streets in Tehran for a second consecutive day of protests. In Iran’s capital, merchants and shop owners have blocked streets and staged demonstrations. On Monday, many also closed their shops and called on Iranians to join a strike, eyewitnesses told the Associated Press. The main trigger for the unrest has been the collapse of Iran’s currency. On December 28, the rial fell to a record low of 1.42 million per U.S. dollar. Soaring inflation has sharply driven up the cost of basic goods: food prices have risen by 72% over the past year, while medicine prices are up 50%. Protesters were heard chanting slogans calling for the return of the shah. According to reports from the scene, parts of Tehran’s Grand Bazaar have joined the strike. Security forces responded by using tear gas and water cannons against demonstrators. Deputy Interior Minister Ali Akbar Pourjamshidian downplayed the currency collapse, attributing it to psychological factors, and urged the public to remain vigilant, patient, and cooperative, warning against what he described as “enemy incitement.” Iranian authorities have also warned that anyone participating in street protests will be prosecuted. “Those who ignore these warnings should be consistently pursued and punished by the competent authorities,” said judiciary chief Gholamhossein Mohseni Ejei.

Discrimination Against Afrikaners in South Africa: The Presidency 🇿🇦 Ramaphosa and senior #ANC leaders continue to refuse to condemn hatred against #Afrikaners, as seen in this video and slogans such as “Kill the Boer, kill the farmer.” Instead, the ANC has even rewarded the person who said he “wants Afrikaner blood,” Obakeng Ramabodu, by promoting him to a senior position through a coalition with him and his party, the EFF, in the Tshwane metro council. Even worse, President Ramaphosa openly spread misinformation in the U.S. by falsely claiming that there are no farm murders in South Africa. Instead of taking a stand against slogans like these, the oppressive BELA Bill (which targets Afrikaans schools and threatens the survival of Afrikaans cultural communities), and discriminatory racial legislation, the leftist establishment in South Africa and beyond seeks to cover up its complicity by shifting the blame onto others. This is why there is a coordinated effort to falsely accuse President Donald J. Trump, Elon Musk , AfriForum, and Solidariteit —while the real cause of the crisis is Ramaphosa and his government’s reckless actions and policies. For the sake of everyone in the country, urgent solutions must be found to address the discrimination against Afrikaners, the disregard for property rights through the Expropriation Act, and the South African government’s anti-Western foreign policy.

For the sake of everyone in the country, urgent solutions must be found to address the discrimination against Afrikaners, the disregard for property rights through the Expropriation Act, and the South African government’s anti-Western foreign policy.

WATCH: Baguio City Market vendors launched a noise barrage protest, Sunday, to further their campaign against the planned mallification of the market under the P4.5 billion public-private partnership between SM Prime Holdings Inc. and the local government. Vendors will conduct daily noise barrage protests until their concerns regarding the redevelopment plan—such as displacement, cultural erasure, loss of livelihood, rent increase, and opaque corporate maneuvers—are resolved, said vendor and Women Vendors Association President Sofia Valenzuela. Vendors also called for the planned redevelopment to be spearheaded by the Baguio City Government with sustained transparent consultations with stakeholders. Vendors will stage a protest in Malcolm Square on Wednesday in a bid to reject SM Prime Holdings’ corporate encroachment and retain the market’s public character.

The ayatollah gave a direct order to kill protesters. The death toll has crossed one thousand Protesters in Iran report that security forces opened fire on crowds without warnings or attempts to disperse them. “They were simply killing people, over and over again,” a Tehran resident told the BBC. After Ali Khamenei declared that the regime would “not retreat”, the violence escalated sharply. The IRGC and the Basij militia were deployed to the streets — ideologically indoctrinated fanatics loyal to the ayatollah. Witnesses from Tehran, Ferdows, Karaj, and Mashhad describe the same scenes: ambushes in side streets, shootings from unmarked vehicles, and large numbers of bodies lying in the streets. The internet has been almost completely shut down for several days, making it impossible to verify the full scale of the killings. The regime cut connectivity not only to prevent protesters from coordinating, but also to ensure that the security forces’ atrocities are not seen by the world. Death toll estimates vary. Reuters reports around 2,000 killed, while opposition media cite significantly higher numbers. The regime labels the protests “terrorism” and blames the United States and Israel. The order to shoot protesters was personally given by Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and approved by Iran’s entire leadership. Despite the unprecedented scale of repression, the protests continue and threaten to bring down the regime. It looks like Trump may need to intervene — now.

Do Trump supporters really buy the Trump administration's messaging on Greenland? "All of a sudden, now that the US has expressed an interest (in annexing Greenland)… and again the United States needs to be in control to prevent a war." Greenland is already protected by NATO. The United States has a base in Greenland. And the rest of NATO are already protecting Greenland. China and Russia have no bases in or near Greenland. There are no credible threats that Russia or China want to take Greenland. And if they did, the US and most of Europe would come quickly to Greenland's defense.

At a time when many Ghanaians are struggling to make ends meet, Sammy Gyamfi, the CEO of Goldbod and a man who has never worked a day in his life, organised a lavish dinner reception during his father-in-law's funeral Take a moment to imagine the anger and reaction from Sammy Gyamfi and the so-called neutrals if a CEO under the Akufo-Addo administration had been linked to such a display. They would have burned this country down. Sammy Gyamfi would have organised press conferences. The NDC communicators and MPs would have flooded radio and television stations and even walked out of Parliament. Demonstrations would have been organised. Social media would have been saturated with accusations of insensitivity and arrogance. The same people who once demanded explanations for every perceived extravagance now want Ghanaians to mourn with them extravagantly.
