My Dear People
Listen up, my people! I saw the ZITF circus in Bulawayo and wondered if I had missed a cabinet reshuffle.
Why were our dignified VPs, Chiwenga and Mohadi, relegated to the background while Sir Wicknell — a man with no public office but plenty of mysteriousnoise — played presidential bodyguard to presidents Boko and Mnangagwa?
It’s unedifying! While you lot are crying over school fees and paracetamol, we have wealth being flaunted like a badge of honoUr without a day’s work in sight.
Since when did flaunting become our national export? We really need to do better, Zimbabwe!
Munopengaaaaaaa
The strike by nurses, which has paralysed the public health sector, has demonstrated for the umpteenth time, the incompetence of this dispensation of poverty, darkness and confusion.
After the hangers on of the regime had boasted about the Scarfed One bringing unbridled joy to civil servants with a salary increment, the nurses’ job action has exposed it for the hogwash that claim is.

The strikeis symptomatic of the neglect by the Scarfmore regime of the health sector since being propelled into power on the back of guns and tanks.
Under the Scarfmore regime’s dismal leadership, public hospitals have become death traps. The current crisis only makes the undertaking by Health minister Dougie to put helipads on top of public health institutions all the more laughable.
It smacks of gross neglect that this regime gives priority to buying top of the range luxury vehicles for chiefs at the expense of giving health workers a decent wage.
With this level of ineptness, the bizarre move by the regime of looking to bar medical aid societies, subsidiaries associated entity or related party from owning managing, operating or holding a financial interest in a health provider, private hospital, specialist unit or facility look ever more ludicrous.
A regime that cannot even provide basics such as bandages for patients has no business interfering with medical aid societies that are providing a critical service of healthcare it has failed to provide. It is frightening to behold that there are plans to extend such drivel by a day beyond 2028 through the pillaging of the constitution.

The desperation of trying to enhance the relevance of the funny money otherwise known as Zimbabwe Gold (ZiG) has taken a comical turn.
There were reports by the state media as well as one online publication that some fuel stations have begun accepting the funny money for fuel.
Yours truly woke from my snooze to hear details of this game changing development.
Alas it turned out to be hot air with the reports quoting petrol attendants who strangely requested anonymity in confirming such a landmark development.
The reports even took a more bizarre turn when it failed to mention which fuel stations were accepting this currency.
The excitement I had at the start of this report was completely deflated by the end of it as it sounded more like a poor attempt at ZiG propaganda.
It seems to have eluded the regime that the funny money’s acceptance will not work with such sponsored pieces of claptrap.

The Independence commemorations at Maphisa have come and gone with no shortage of drama.
The donation of bicycles to war veterans by the Scarfed one reinforced the belief of their reduced stature under the so called second repubric.
At a time comedians are receiving luxury 4x4s, war veterans, some whom are 70 or above, will have to huff and puff on bicycles.
The message from this contrast in donations sends the message that jesters are of far more importance that those who fought tooth and nail to free the country from colonial bondage. What an insult!!.
The grotesque statue of the late liberation icon and nationalist Joshua Nkomo added insult to injury.
The statue, which was made hurriedly by probably some unqualified bozos who got the job due to being politically connected, was rightly met by national outrage.
Even presidential mouthpiece Joji could not hide his angst over such a shoddy attempt at immortalising Father Zimbabwe.
The independence celebrations included a soccer match between Scottland and Highlanders which was played on a surface that resembled a potato patch.
The players were lucky that they did not suffer from career ending injuries on such a muddy surface.
If anything, the Independence celebrations at Maphisa will be remembered more for the disdain of those who fought for the country by those who have their snouts firmly in the feeding trough.

The rejection of the US$3,6 million contributions to parliamentarians by the burly tenderpreneur and ex-convict Weaknail by the youth league of the ruining Zanu PF party was an interesting development.
It is not every day that Weaknail is told to shove his money where the sun don’t shine.
The donation, the youth league told the ex- convict would compromise parliament on the eve of voting for the tearing apart of the country’s supreme law for self-serving interests of Scarfmore and co.
Well, if the rejection of Weaknail’ s donation was meant to preserve the integrity of parliament, it is a futile exercise.
Parliament has long since been corrupted since the takeover of the not so august house by unelected puppets of the regime after the removal of opposition parliamentarians who had been voted for by the country’s citizens.
The current parliament with members who have been panned for incoherent arguments and snoozing during debates, is well beyond redemption of any sort.
Stop It!
