The day every Zimbabwean became a lawyer

Winners are takers, how can losers determine the pace of the game. If indeed the spaghetti boy on a bullet train is not the Emperor today, how can he lay claim to the crown? One has to be in it to win it or lose it, it takes two to tango. …

Who needs bullet trains when our roads are decorated with potholes?

The forthcoming elections have become very 'revealing' in the calibre of those gunning for the highest office in the land. Even my school dropout uncle in the village might as well have thrown his hat in the ring. Well, its free for all, w…

Grovelling for sanctions then canvassing for votes from suffering masses
