Ladies and gentlemen across Africa and around the world, join me in wishing this great African music legend a happy 95th birthday. Malawian musician Giddes Chalamanda was born today in 1931. In this video he is performing his classic song Linny Hoo. May he live long enough for many younger African generations to continue learning from him, and may his extraordinary contribution to African music continue to be celebrated and remembered forever. Tilibe kanthu koma kukulemekezani, mkulu. Khalani odalitsidwa mpaka kalekale. Sangalalani lero, tsiku lanu lalikulu. Africa ikukondani.

There are two types of conversations that are happening in Zimbabwe and in the world, the James Manyika/Strive Masiyiwa type of conversation, and the Emmerson Mnangagwa/Uerbert Angel type of conversation. You have to chose the conversation that you want for your life and your family, many have made those choices already, and they are self evident in their lives. My father taught me to make choices that will outlive me, and that will be celebrated by future generations. Which conversation do you think is meaningful to you and Zimbabwe between these two conversations, and which conversation do you want your kids and yourself to be part of between these two? RETWEET for Strive and James. LIKE for Emmerson and Uerbert

This video has made many people cry after watching it. It shows a South African man meeting a Zimbabwean trader selling eggs and peanuts in Johannesburg. She has her baby on the back whilst she trades in the streets of Johannesburg. The man gave her R800 and asked her to go home with her baby and rest. She narrated that she looked after her kids and parents back home through selling boiled eggs and roasted peanuts. These are the stories @nickmangwana that show how much Zimbabweans are suffering and how they have to leave their country to go to South Africa and trade because your Government has failed to run the country through corrupt rule. I don’t know how bringing people like @PearlThusi and other celebrities will change the view of South Africans on Zimbabwe when South Africans see suffering Zimbabweans daily in their country. May the man who assisted this woman be blessed abundantly, and may South Africa and its people be blessed for helping millions of suffering Zimbabweans put a meal on the table for their families both in South Africa and Zimbabwe. This is stuff to RETWEET because it shows how the love of humanity heal the hearts of the suffering.
