Hired and high: Dread Mandi

Obituaries
My people, The Horrid newspaper of yesterday quoted me correctly when it said I had called on the local media to report positively on developments taking place in the country.

My people, The Horrid newspaper of yesterday quoted me correctly when it said I had called on the local media to report positively on developments taking place in the country.

I know there is not much that the media can report positively about, but I thought I would provide a few story ideas for those lazy journalists who cannot think positively about their country.

  • One could make a comparative analysis of the money spent on family holidays and medical assessments in Singapore versus the money required to improve our own medical facilities.
  • Assess the cost of sending chefs’ children and relatives to South African universities and how the money could be used to develop local universities.
  • Interview ordinary people on who should take responsibility for the missing $15 billion and what should happen to them.
  • Ask potential investors if they have confidence investing in a gangster State where an Acting President can break into a police station, beat up one or two police officers before freeing  gangsters accused of stealing more than a million.
  • Calculate how many rural schools can be built using money spent in a five-star hotel over 500 days by a vice-president.
  • Do a feature story on how much the recent banning of food imports had a lot to do with protecting family businesses of an African president and that of his deputy.
  • What should the international community do about a certain very elderly African president under whose watch, more than 20 000 people were massacred by soldiers who reported directly to him.
  • Feature: should genuine war veterans who trained and carried a gun be arrested for issuing communiqués that state that a certain African leader committed genocide, including how he purged his war-time comrades.
  • Write a feature stating how a certain son-in-law had a whole power station built for him by his dotting in-laws who owned a little country in southern Africa.
  • Do a news story stating how national agricultural equipment was distributed in a partisan manner to some ruling party members by a certain First Shopper who used the events to denigrate politicians from a rival faction.
  • Write a medical column based on the following facts: He stumbled and plunged headlong into the red carpet, he read the wrong speech in Parliament without realising it and denounced a party which he “leads” without realising it.
  • Assess how a certain First Shopper was able to find enough time to do a Ph.D in one month.
  •  Analyse how a typist was able to loot a housing scheme for civil servants before starting “philanthropic” work in the country.
  •  Do a news story of a family which has amassed several farms for itself, friends and cronies in clear violation of the “one family, one farm policy”?
  • Write a feature story on how a certain banana republic can fail to pay its workers despite claiming to own vast diamond, gold, platinum, uranium and chrome deposits.

I hope this will help the journalists come up with positive stories on our country.

My two Bushwackers The recent solidarity march of members of the women’s league and 30-year-old war veteran was very exciting, from a Gushungo 40 perspective.

Once again, we managed to embarrass Ngwena and Mudhara will not say or do anything about it. I told you I was in charge a long time ago.

You people always say Ngwena is a frightening individual, but two women have so far managed to undress him in public.

The late Asphina Nhari chanted: “Down with G40!” and was expelled from the party.

Sarah “Mawaya” told Ngwena he was a dhakisi and now Dread Mandi has publicly embarrassed Ngwena, but nothing will happen to them because they were sent by Mudhara himself. I know many will accuse Dread of having been high on dhobhu, but her message was clear.

Sarah Mawaya and Dread have been appointed our bushwhackers who fight our private wars in the party. Do you remember the tag team wrestlers from New Zealand with a combined IQ level of 1?  Sarah and Dread play the role well.

Happy birthday to me

The Horrid had an excellent supplement dedicated to my birthday. I was very flattered by some phrases used to describe me.

In one paragraph it described me as “A loving mother, compassionate philanthropist, astute businesswoman, perceptive politician and a remarkable patriot.”

Is that so? Is that really me?  I am so humbled, I cant believe it. To those who don’t think so, I have this to say: Munopenga! You are crazy!
