I have seen post where some Zimbabweans where denouncing our culture and at the same time trying to embrace western cultures but they always cherry pick. There was a post about buying your parents or grandparents something with your 1st pay but some people thought it was a greedy idea and they felt they don't owe their parents anything. In the western world after leaving high school you get a student loan, in your name that you will pay back later with interest to get that degree.

If you don't go to university, you reach 18 years, they threw you out in the streets, coz you are an adult. Now selfish Zimbabweans, want to benefit from the Shona/Ndebele culture when it benefits them, and when it's their turn they revert back to western culture. Please if you want to adopt western culture adopt it early, tell your parents you will fund your studies or you move out when you are 18, that money that they were supposed to pay for your university, they can invest in real estate zvavo.

I have said it before,

Africans want to receive but don't want to give, and charity begins at home. Munhu kurwadziwa kutenga gumbeze for your parents? Or kurwadziwa kuti why your parents vapihwa roora rako?

I was listening to some podcast and what AI can now and what it is capable of doing in the next year or 2 years, it's terminator 20, Judgement Day. Every industry will be impacted. Movies will be produced in a few minutes, songs will be written in a few minutes(it's happening now), they said Super AI is coming, those in video games, GTA will be produced in a few minutes, Super AI will be able to take your blood samples and tell you the exact date you are going to get cancer and what you need to do to prevent it. As for DNA... Vakadzi muchachema, nevarume futi, buy merely looking at your child photo and your photo it will pass judgement(this one is a joke but you get the picture). Hanzi machines will be able to reproduce themselves, mumwe akati we will unplug electricity, zvijanzi AI will come up with solutions to self generate power from unconventional means, the rich people's greatest threat to them is time, they can do anything to stay alive (hope you watched the movie, "The Island.. 2005". A humanoid with half human and half machine will emerge. The superpowers, China and America are already years ahead and working day and night as Africans still continue to sleep. Most people's data will be also be comprised from an individual perception as l can just tell AI to develop a software that can transfer data to my phone or my server with a headline that's eye catching eg "ED has resigned" or " Zimbabweans in SA to be given papers", nekuda zvinhu muno clicker chete. You can tell AI to develop a teacher to teach you physics, accounting, chemistry or whatever, write a novel, the list is endless. If you are a man...start learning a trade as well... Plumbing, carpentry, agriculture, building on top of your white collar degree. Vakadzi manje ne manicure hameno kuti zvobuda here. Touch line inenge yadhakwa coz varume vanenge vakugadzira wavo mukadzi, vopa manufacturing company specifics, and they pay once.

The way Zimbabweans sometimes are so greedy it's appalling. From the individuals, to small businesses, up to the policians. There is a reason why these big corporations plough back in the society. They all know success also comes from giving. Econet is one example that plough back in the society. One day you will need that help. When l was in Cape Town, Whites used to donate health equipment to the ghetto, and everywhere, because they also knew it can come a time when you may need those services. Ginimbi died and he didn't get any help, police didn't have equipment, fire brigade didn't arrive on time, money couldn't buy him life. James Makamba's son died coz he couldn't get a ventilation machine, Makamba had the money and if he had bought and donated equipment, his son might have survived, you walk the streets oh Harare CBD, those small business can't even buy a street bulb, or buy paint to paint even signs, they are waiting for someone to do it, they can't even organise themselves to say let's clean up Angwa street on Friday etc. Jonathan Moyo daughter died In Cape Town University yet he was Minister of higher education, he couldn't equip UZ or Nust using government money so his daughter can learn comfortable. Any school in Zimbabwe can be well equipped if citizens come together, l know group A schools they have their old student associations that makes sure they have necessary things besides the current students fees. Eg if every former student any school donate a book, every library will be full in Zimbabwe whether it's Allan Willson, Mufakose high 1, or Nembudziya high, there are more than 20 000 ex students in every school in Zimbabwe. When l was in South Africa, l saw about 30 brand knew textbooks being sold in a Library for about R20 each, l think they bought Cambridge instead of their Matric textbooks, l told my fellow ex school members and all they could do was giving me a like on Facebook. In life if you have never helped anyone please don't expect to get help, if you have stolen or wakavhara munhu, opportunities will pass you by, and most people are very easy to forget, Some people who are duped money, they won't tell you that they once did that to others, ma COS akauya while others got them, others where doped money. Ex politicians they start looking miserable yet when they were in power....

I left Zimbabwe in 2008 when things where hard after l realised l will reach a dead end coz zve corruption nekuvhara vanhu wasn't my cut. I went to Cape Town because ndokwaive nemunhu wekusvikira, usually when relocating your contacts will determine relocation base. I left though after about 15 years but now that l am out of Cape Town l understand why Zimbabweans don't want to leave South Africa. Actually the whole of Western Cape it's majestic, no wonder Cape-town was voted the the best city in the world. Now l try to compare with Harare, even the surbubs uum pane nharo. If you have time Google one or 2 of the following places, all in one city, Table Mountain, Camps Bay, Green point, Constantia, Simons Town, Fishhoek, Paarl, Tokai, Hermanus, Summerset West, Stellenbotch, Houtbay, Sea Point, Century City, Water Front, Bloubergstrand etc. Mukazo hustler mbichana, endai ku Trababalas kuno hiker, you can live in a back packer for 2 weeks henyu, mozodzoka, it will change everything, the way you view life and your ambitions as well. You will aim high. You can't gumira hako mu Joburg or somewhere, just to be a tourist for a month or 2 weeks chete. I choose SA because Europe is far and expensive in terms of transport, manje ne $30 unosvika mu Joburg,

How long is it now since someone took your CV for something?

Anything to do with voting the regime has already won, we have seen this many times. They monitor, roll out and count themselves (Zanu Pf)

The message is very clear but Africans from Nigeria, Congo, Mozambique, Malawi, Zimbabwe etc don't want to answer.

Most group A schools where built by Ian Douglas Mutemamiti Smith. If the government wants to preserve their heroes names, they should built their own group A schools. If l can still remember, there where 9 group A boys high school since 1980, they should have built at least another 9 boys high school. In short everything should have doubled by now, from Bulawayo, Gweru, Mutate and Harare, this include electricity, hospitals and aeroplanes. The stupidity is giving cars worth 100 million and cash yet can't built anything of their own. I am beyond disappointed. The way they are struggling to renovate even NSS.

I think we have to play Zanu Pf it's own game, that's plan D, if you don't support it, join them, start compaining as a Zanu Pf member, if you do so in numbers, in 10 years time you should have infiltrated the whole Zanu and bring change. Start as a ward councillor, even kumusha, and bring positive change, you will thank me latter.

Sources on the ground irikuti ma Zimbabweans vatengesi uye kufunga kwavo kushoma. Hanzi nema South Africans, tikati we are striking for higher wages, ma Zimbabweans anoenda newreseri and get hired for peanuts which renders our efforts fruitless, which is very true, taiti mangwana hatisikuuya kubasa kune stay away, vamwe vaiuya kuzo shanda zvoshaya basa, that was around 2008, and vaitokucherayi futi so and so ndovaive pamberi(Mhondiwa kwauri ikoko l hope you are a millionaire now and getting the very best medical aid). In short, we want short term gains at the expense of long term gains, dai takavharwawo Nyika nema stay aways 20 years ago, we could be in a better place now, if everyone now akaisa tools down, for a month, ED anoenda, imagine, every civil servant, worker, zesa yodzima magetsi, border vovjara, airport yovhara, vano voungana mu streets. Pamuchazo fungal ma deals iwayo mu enge machembera mese, ma degrees enyu nema masters anenge are irrelevant, eg masters in journalism with zero experience, or masters in accounting with zero experience. In other words, critical thinking ishoma or IQ ishoma kuma sadza eaters. The sequence is, stable economy, education, then jobs, not education in an unstable economy, you are wasting your time, anobvepi mabasa acho, who goes to school in a war(civil or economic) torn country?
