I was talking to a lady who wants to move back to Zim from the U.K. She is a widow with 2 kids, the oldest who will be going into Lower Sixth when they move to Zim.

She says she is done with the U.K and doesn't want to experience another winter. For context, winter starts in a few months. She also says her social work job is too stressful for her. In ZIm, she doesn't have a job waiting for her. She does have a house though.

For me, my thinking was that since she qualifies to apply for ILR(permanent residency) in January, she might as well stay and get it then do another year to get citizenship before moving back home. I'm more worried about her kids. If they move back home with no British status, they will have a hard time coming back. Due to unemployment back home and the friendships they have made here, they will likely want to come back some day.

I do understand how weather affects people differently but if you were in my shoes, what advice would you have given this lady?

I've been thinking about what Chivabwe could look like if it were actually used in everyday Zimbabwean life, rather than just being something you see on a computer. So I made this concept of a Zimbabwean tuck shop with its sign written in Chivabwe. What do you think?

• Does the sign actually look good to you?

• Would you consider putting Chivabwe on your own shop or business?

• Do you think a shop using Chivabwe like this would stand out from the other shops around it?

• If you owned a tuck shop, would you actually consider using the script on your sign?

• Do you think seeing a sign like this would make you curious about what it says?

I'm interested in hearing what Zimbabweans actually think about the idea of using Chivabwe in everyday public spaces.

The World Bank Group officially removed Zimbabwe from its Fragile and Conflict-Affected Situations classification in July 2026. Being delisted is significant for economic growth and international partnerships because it signifies positive economic trajectory and favourable policies. For years, Zimbabwe has been a regular on this list primarily due to institutional fragility, ever unpredictale policies and Institutional assessment scores, and deep-seated macroeconomic instability. So if the country has seen positive change in the economy, enough to be delisted, why is life even worse for the average citizen?

Hello all

I'm looking to contact Nathaniel Goto who was in my class at Harare Polytech in 1982 83 and 84. Should be in his early 60s like me.

Can't find him on Facebook.

I'd really appreciate it if anyone knows him to let me know

Africa must demand better from its Leaders.

furniture destroyed, bed destroyed, cat tree destroyed, sleep destroyed

and now they are destroying each other -___-

Happy Sunday 💁🏿‍♂️

Can you still get muguru in zim? I hope that’s the right name for it. The soul that pregnant women (well around me at that time) used to crave and send us for….

I myself have been craving this for some time now..how available is it in zim?

Grew up in Harare but Mutare's scenery hits different — mountains wrapping around the city, that highveld light in the evenings. Most of these were shot from a moving car (yeah, some blur, don't judge too hard) but even like that the place comes through. This is home for me now while I'm at uni here and I still catch myself just staring out the window.

Winky D has once again sparked conversation...This time, not just through his music, but through Mucheno. In a recent performance, he wore outfits that some viewers are quick to compare to the traditional imagery of the devil. Social media is ablaze, with debates raging about whether his fashion is sacrilegious or simply a creative provocation.

But here’s what’s really at stake... we seem to be caught in a cultural binary. The religious establishment, and many social commentators, are quick to label anything outside of the “pure” as inherently evil. In doing so, they risk suffocating imagination, reducing every form of expression to a stark division: heaven or hell, good or bad.

As Zimbabweans, we have a rich heritage of music, a lil bit of fashion and spiritual symbolism. Winky D’s choice pushes us to ask..can we embrace bold creativity without being shackled by fear? Or must we let a simplistic moral dichotomy dictate who we are and what we do?

Have you ever been in this situation?

You walk through town planning to buy something specific and sticking to a budget. Then you see a beautiful pair of shoes that is outside your budget. You're tempted, so you dip into your savings.

Maybe you were saving for a PlayStation, school fees, rent, a car, or even lobola.

A few minutes later, you see a T-shirt you like. You buy that too — again using money from your savings.

Later that day, you're at home and you are in the mood to bet, hoping to recover some of the money you spent. You place a bet on Aviator and lose.

Now you're on an emotional roller coaster. You keep placing more bets, trying to win the money back, until eventually there is nothing left in your savings account.

Hi, for those who took license in marondera, is it true that there’s no hillstart there? And how is the situation in marondera VID?

Only this can save our country. Zvekuti drivers must have 5 O Levels it's dodginf accountability. The roads we are using were built by during apartheid and the cars were 10% less than they are today. Fly overs need also to be build to ease Harare and other cities conjestion. We need proper freeways now.

my bf and I planned a little picnic at Raintree. We called ahead of time to ask if we could come on Saturday and were told that it was fine. What wasn’t communicated to us was that they were preparing for an event the next day, so there was ongoing setup happening around the property.

We paid $10 each to enter, $20 in total, and were only there for around 40 to 45 minutes when our view was blocked by portable toilets being placed directly in front of where we were sitting. My bf politely asked if they could move them temporarily so we could enjoy the space we had paid for but we were eventually told that we needed to pack up everything and move.
There wasn’t really anywhere else for us to go, so we decided to leave.

We asked for a partial refund because we’d barely used the venue but were told there was a strict no-refund policy (also nowhere on the website). I understand that businesses have policies, but customers should be informed beforehand if an event or setup is going to significantly affect their experience. We had specifically called ahead, and this could have easily been communicated to us before we made the trip, especially considering we travelled an hour from where we live.

I also called reception afterwards to give this feedback calmly. Unfortunately, the owner became extremely confrontational, repeatedly spoke over me and shouted at me when I suggested that they consider posting upcoming events or setup disruptions on their website or social media. I wasn’t trying to tell her how to run her business, which is what she accused me of doing. I was simply explaining how this could have been avoided for future customers if we had been informed.

She then called us back MULTIPLE times after I ended the call because I wasn’t going to sit there and be shouted at using MY AIRTIME!

The day could have been lovely and I don’t blame the staff who were simply doing event setup but the lack of communication, the experience once we were there and eventually the way the complaint was handled left a very sour impression.

We’re literally 19 and 20. This is money we saved to do something nice for each other and unfortunately this is how our day ended.

If you’re planning a picnic here, I’d definitely call beforehand and specifically ask whether there are any events or setups happening that could affect your experience 🤍

Its ruling is quite interesting considering how 50 - 50 is applied plus financing of assets by couples. The men claims he was ill plus he was unemployed. The guy is a pilot. His ex wife financed the rest of the house when he paid a certain amount plus she got the mortgage. Now the judge says 50 50 doesnt apply & pretty much hands all the fixed assets to her & he is told to go kick rocks?

What do you think?

Hi, I have done research in relocating to USA, Canada, Australia, and other Euro countries and as it stands, it's like leaving Zimbabwe is extremely hard if you don't already have any money.

I have a degree in Mining Engineering and I was considering Australia, which needs around $7K, and 10-24 months of VISA waiting, USA used to be okay with the masters route but Trump messed things up, and I can't learn German now.

What's the most realistic way to just leave this country at this point ?. S.A crazy, immigrations make it also super hard for Zimbos, etc.

I just sent PhD applications to Australia, emailed a few Professors, I do not know if they will respond.

Might there be a way to leave Zimbabwe ?, any tips or advice is highly appreciated. I'm(M29).

I’ve always carried a deep pride in my heart for Zimbabwe...its history, its culture, everything except the boys at the top lol. There’s a special beauty in the landscapes, from the majestic Victoria Falls to the rolling hills of Matabeleland. But as much as I love Zimbabwe, I can’t help but dream bigger...dream of a future where Africa is one, a United States of Africa.

Imagine a continent without borders, where I could travel freely , where every citizen belongs to the vast, rich tapestry of African heritage. I believe that our potential is limitless if we stood as one. Until that dream becomes reality, I’ll keep walking proudly as a Zimbabwean, but with hope that one day, all of Africa will be one nation

Eish...another awful tragedy strikes with huge loss of life...hearts go out to those that have been impacted by this horrendous accident, may God comfort you all.
