Zimbabwe International Theft Fair- Four Decades of Diminishing Standards
The Zimbabwe International Trade Fair 2025 — or more aptly, the Zimbabwe International Theft Fair — dazzled not with innovation but with corruption on full display. ZANU-PF dominated the event like the conglomerate it is, while real business took a backseat to glitz, propaganda, and presidential cronies flexing stolen wealth.

Dear US, Keep Your Land—We’ll Keep Our Zimbabwe!
The United States has placed Zimbabwe in the “yellow” travel category—oh no, how will we ever survive without the privilege of scrubbing their dishes and driving their taxis? Well, dear Uncle Sam, keep your America, and we’ll keep our Zimbabwe! Who needs stable electricity, functioning hospitals, or a thriving economy when we have ZBC telling us everything is just fine?

With corruption’s poster boy getting primetime treatment, it’s only fair that we, the taxpayers, dutifully fund ZBC licenses—after all, where else would we get to watch how state contracts translate into lobola cows?

Mnangagwa’s “We Are the Judiciary” Words Come to Fruition as Mhlanga Is Denied Bail
When President Mnangagwa boasted, “We are the army, the police, and the judiciary,” few imagined those words would manifest so literally. Yet, journalist Blessed Mhlanga’s continued detention proves Trabablas meant every word. His crime? Amplifying the voice of Blessed Geza, who dared to call out Mnangagwa’s corrupt empire.
In the Second Republic, exposing the truth is punishable by pre-trial detention, while looting public funds secures state protection. Justice, it seems, is only for those who serve the system.
