Criticism is not a lack of patriotism.
We all love this land we call home.
Don’t let anyone silence you because you desire a better Zimbabwe, that you’re asking for a chance to build a better home, that you’re demanding better leadership.
Let the flag win. Think Zimbabwe.

Exactly 10 yrs ago 17 Nov 2009, on crutches, barely able to move my legs, 3 months from paralysis, I entered Avenues Clinic for 13 hours of neuro-surgery to decompress my spine. Today I stand - able-bodied, restored to complete health.
When i think of the goodness of the Lord...

Of Freezits and Buses.
I sold freezits all my childhood. In fact, we all did in my family to supplement my father’s rural primary school teacher’s salary and whatever extra coin my mum earned from her vegetable patch. This was in Sanyati - paArda for those familiar with the area

The one thing that i’ll miss about Peter Drury, save for his undoubted diction and mastery of the english language, is that he was FAIR 🤝🏾
He had no favourites. He simply fed on the occasion and what was at stake, more than the colour of the shirt.

Zimbabwe is home to the Sable. in fact, one of the sub-species (the black sable) is actually called the “Matsetsi Sable” after a valley in which they are found in great numbers in Zimbabwe.. Our national rugby team is affectionately known as “The Sables”😉

The sentiment that a critic cannot be patriotic is hogwash.
Patriotism must never be used as a tool to suppress dissent. In fact, it should be a motivator to do what’s best for the country.

it’s not the match officials’ duty to try and keep it 11v11 - that’s the responsibility of the teams and their players. The referee is there to apply the laws of the game and not pander to sentiment.
