We are not angry enough.
Unidentified men (in black hat) disrupted the inaugural Qhubekani Dube Memorial Lecture in Bulawayo on Tuesday, ordering attendees to disperse and forcing proceedings to a halt.
The pressure group Ibhetshu likaZulu organised the lecture to honour the legacy of its founder and former chairman, the late Qhubekani Dube, known for his advocacy for justice.
Organisers condemned the police action, while the reasons behind the disruption remain unclear. The lecture was intended to commemorate Dube’s contribution and reflect on his legacy.
The problem in 🇿🇼 is that cultural identity is conflated with tribalism. Being proud of urself doesn't mean u're tribalistic. Sadly in 🇿🇼 it's been used to 'other' minorities, & if ur idea was to succeed, it'd be used ruthlessly to erase some cultures. This is a dangerous idea.
The name Matabeleland should and must be reconsidered. It has become increasingly difficult to raise legitimate concerns affecting the region without being labelled a tribalist.
Regional development, equitable resource allocation, employment opportunities and infrastructure are national issues, not tribal demands.
This conversation must also include Zimbabwe's national identity numbering system, which incorporates regional identifiers. Why should a citizen's identity document carry markers that distinguish them by geographical origin?
If we are serious about building one nation, we must reconsider both the regional labels that divide us and administrative practices that reinforce those divisions.
Zimbabwe must move towards a national identity that treats every citizen equally, regardless of geographical or ethnic origin.

Hearty congratulations. We in @CityofBulawayo are very proud of your achievements.
Yesterday was the Lupane State University 17th Graduation Ceremony, and I graduated in absentia with a Master of Science Degree in Public Policy and Development Management. I graduated with a distinction, yaaay to me. My transcript looks good with those 8Ds and 3Ms. On a serious note, I had the best lecturers who made me fall in love with Public Policy. I owe it to Dr. Malinga, Dr. Nyathi, the brilliant Dr. Gorden Moyo, and the best academic supervisor and my favourite lecturer of all time, Dr. Nqo Sikhosana. Thank you so much for your knowledge and expertise. You made me want to read and be smart in policy stuff. I am busy encouraging people to study Public Policy because of all of you. You also inspired me to start looking for PhD opportunities. Thank you.
FOMO dealt with me yesterday, but I had many reasons not to attend, and one of them was I had an operation done last week, and I wasn't going to let that terrible road shift all my bones. That operation is too expensive, please (still crying about it). Please do not call my mum to say you saw on Twitter. You get me in trouble 🙄.
Please celebrate me by sending real flowers and MONEY (I need money for the graduation photoshoot, please 🤣🤣🙌🏾).
Not to forget, cheers to my classmates. I know I gave you hell. But thank you for allowing me to express my passion for Public Policy and talking nonstop. You made our lectures fun. Congratulations to you all. Well done🥂🍸🎉🎊💃💃
