EFF leader tells supporters to vote for MDC-T/ZANU PF in by-elections

The leader of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) Zimbabwe party, Innocent Ndibali, called on his supporters to vote for either the MDC-T led by Douglas Mwonzora or ZANU PF in the Saturday by-elections.

The United Kingdom-based Ndibali said the two parties share the same ideology on issues of land reform and the economic empowerment of black people.

Ndibali urged Zimbabweans not to vote for Nelson Chamisa’s Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) saying the party invited sanctions on the country. He said:

As EFF Zimbabwe, we are encouraging our members to vote for (Douglas) Mwonzora’s MDC Alliance or ZANU PF.

The two parties clearly share the same ideology with us on the issue of land and economic freedom.

There are no human rights without land and political freedom without economic freedom is futile.

There is no way we can support a political party like CCC which invited sanctions for this country.

As a black businessman, my business has been adversely affected by these sanctions.

These sanctions are an impediment to black advancement.

On Saturday, I am appealing to all Zimbabweans to defend their heritage by voting for parties that stand for black people. If we do that, then we are good on March 26.

I know by declaring our allegiance to the two parties, we are going to get a lot of backlashes but we do not care.

By-elections will be held this Saturday, 26 March 2022 in 28 National Assembly constituencies and more than 100 council wards.

Government yet to pay school fees for teachers’ children

Teachers say the Government has failed to honour its promise to pay schools fees for their children, with the 2022 first term ending on 7 April.

Last month the Government pledged to pay school fees for children of teachers with a maximum of three children per teacher getting $20 000 each, per term.

Progressive Teachers Union of Zimbabwe (PTUZ) secretary-general Raymond Majongwe told NewsDay that teachers are yet to benefit from the facility. He said:

There is nothing yet. Not even the disbursement template exists. Once again, the government is short-changing its employees.

There is neither a policy nor procedure to make the teachers benefit. The government now has a tendency of throwing benefits that benefit no one.

Last time there was a COVID-19 allowance that was meant to assist those who contracted the disease at work, but until today, none of the 1 588 of our members got a cent even after contracting the deadly disease while those from other ministries benefitted.

Amalgamated Rural Teachers’ Union of Zimbabwe (ARTUZ) president Obert Masaraure also confirmed that the fees are yet to be paid. Said Masaraure:

It is sad to note that the government promised benefits that have not materialised up to this time.

The government pledged to pay tuition fees for teachers’ children beginning March 1, but these fees are yet to be paid.

However, Primary and Secondary Education ministry spokesperson Taungana Ndoro denied allegations that the Government had failed to fulfil its promise, saying the funds were still being processed. He said:

It is not true that the government has failed to honour its pledge. Due process is being carried out and we have to wait for it to take place.

Remember we have a substantial number of teachers, over 140 000 of them and, therefore, due diligence cannot take place overnight.

The Government made the pledge during a National Joint Negotiation Committee (NJNC) meeting after teachers went on strike citing incapacitation.

Actress Khanyi Mbau on her bae’s alleged criminal past

Mzansi actress and media personality Khanyi Mbau has finally spoken out about her Zimbabwean boyfriend Kudzai Mushonga’s alleged criminal past.

Kudzai is reportedly on the Zimbabwean police wanted list and is a fugitive from justice after allegedly defrauding a microfinance company of US$166,000 (R2.4m) back in 2016.

Up till now, both Khanyi Mbau and Kudzai Mushonga have never directly addressed the allegations.

However, on the first episode of Netflix’s new reality show “Young, Famous & African”, which premiered on Friday, Khanyi made it clear that she does not care that Kudzai may be a criminal fugitive.

The star of Showmax’s hit drama “The Wife” called herself a “Gangster Girl” and said she seems to attract men with shady pasts. She highlighted that her baby daddy, Mandla Mthembu, was also alleged to have done some underhand shady deals to become wealthy.

In a show of unconditional love, Khanyi emphasized that she literally does not care if the Zimbabwean businessman is a criminal or fugitive from justice.

“Is Kudzai a bad boy? Yes. He got a crazy life, alleged (sic) stole money.

“I don’t know why I seem to attract them. My baby daddy also had a scandal about how he got his money. So, I don’t know; maybe I am a gangster chick.

“So if he is one, I literally don’t care.”

On the same episode of “Young, Famous & African”, Kudzai did not explicitly confirm or deny the allegations. He only insisted that the story came out because some people were targetting him.

“People were writing fugitive this, wanted this. But the person who wrote that story they were just targetting me because I am newsworthy,” said Kudzai.

On the same episode of “Young, Famous & African”, Kudzai did not explicitly confirm or deny the allegations. He only insisted that the story came out because some people were targetting him.

“People were writing fugitive this, wanted this. But the person who wrote that story they were just targetting me because I am newsworthy,” said Kudzai.

Kudzai was placed on the wanted list by the Zimbabwe Republic Police on June 13, 2017, when he was just 25 years old. He was joined on the wanted list by his friends and alleged accomplices Tatenda Mandimutsira of Dzivarasekwa 2 in Harare and Njabulo Ndebele of Brook Village in Borrowdale.

The trio allegedly defrauded a microfinance company of US$166,000 (R2.4m) after misrepresenting that they owned an airline, Dream Air Company. The three allegedly cooked bank statements and papers to secure a loan for the non-existent airline.

They were arrested after the microfinancier carried out a thorough background check when they applied for a second loan.

However, after they were granted bail at the court, the three skipped the country and are yet to be apprehended since 2017.

According to police sources, the warrant is still active, and there’s a notice that anyone with information should report to the police national complaints desk about the trio’s whereabouts.

Tatelicious kicked out of her Saltvik mansion

Sweden-based Zimbabwean socialite Tatelicious Karigambe recently took to social media to announce that she will be moving out of her mansion in Saltvik in the next few months.

The shocking news came with a long post, in which she confessed that she had no desire to keep secrets from her fans or live a fake life in the public eye. “I don’t live a fake life, I’m your celebrity so you have every right to know what is happening in my life,” she wrote on Facebook.

She went on to detail how she lost her house to legal proceedings, following her divorce from her ex-husband Richard Sandberg, which happened in 2018. While they were together and happy, her ex-husband had gifted her a beautiful mansion.

But as it turns out, following their divorce, Richard stopped paying the mortgage to the bank because they are no longer together. She says that she has asked Richard, repeatedly, to let her take over the loan so she can pay it off herself and continue to live in the house, but he has refused, simply because he wants to see her suffer.

Since the payments have been neglected for a while now, the bank returned to reclaim the house, as it was put down as collateral for the loan. And Tatelicious says she is not about to bow to him or beg him to let her continue paying the mortgage – she would rather move out with her dignity intact. “I can not bow and beg to any man, never!!!” she wrote.

She also advised those who dream of getting married to white people thinking it’s all fun and cuteness.

“My black people when you get married to white people and get gifts like houses, PLEASE MAKE SURE, there is a supporting AFFIDAVIT which your husband must write to say ;

The house gift which he gave to you MUST NOT be repossessed by ANY credit collectors if he somehow fails to pay his debts or divorce you.

The house gift you got from him WILL NOT be part of the division of property if divorce arises. ”

She definitely has some sage advice for those who are willing to listen. It’s quite sad that she has to go through the stress of moving out of a house she has lived in for seven years. But we are glad to see that she continues to hold her head high through it all, knowing that she will survive this too.

Singer and actress Ciara has been cast as Nettie in “The Color Purple”. The 36-year-old musician – who appeared as Brie in Adam Sandler’s 2012 comedy “That’s My Boy” – is set to play an adult version of Nettie in Blitz Bazawule’s musical take on Steven Spielberg’s 1985 film of the same name
As reported by Entertainment Weekly, Ciara will take on the adult version of Halle Bailey’s character.

The forthcoming Warner Bros. movie is an adaptation of the award-winning Broadway musical, which is itself an adaptation of the novel by Alice Walker.

The production will be directed by Blitz – known for his work on Beyoncé’s “Black is King” – and Marcus Gardley has written the screenplay based on Walker’s book, Spielberg’s film and the stage musical. The “Jaws” director is also returning to produce for his Amblin Entertainment company.

Oprah Winfrey, who made her acting debut as Sofia in Spielberg’s adaptation, is producing the new flick under her Harpo Films banner.

Scott Sanders and Quincy Jones – who both produced the Broadway musical – are also involved as producers on the movie. She said: “I don’t know anybody who’s ever been associated with [‘The Color Purple’] whose life didn’t get enhanced…

“Everything comes from the original words of Alice Walker, which were grounded in love, really. Love of this community. Love of these people. Love those characters.

“And that just gets passed on and passed on and passed on. I can’t wait to see this next evolvement, which is not attached to having done it the way we’ve always done it.

Mzansi star Makhadzi’s fans were left confused today after the star hosted an uncaptioned Facebook Livestream where she donned traditional gear usually worn by brides during traditional wedding ceremonies. She was in the company of women dressed in the same gear too.

Makhadzi

Makhadzi is currently in Botswana where she is set to perform one of her many One Woman Shows in different regions of that country.

She hosted a live stream that left many of her fans scratching their heads on Wednesday morning, the 23rd of March.

Makhadzi

Congratulatory messages started swarming her live comment section. People were convinced she was indeed going through a traditional wedding ceremony process in Botswana.

Makhadzi

This assertion was easily believed by her fans who could not understand the Tswana language spoken in the background.

However, Makhadzi, who is in a romantic relationship with a fellow Limpopian Master KG, is not getting married in the Facebook live streams she held on Wednesday morning.

Makhadzi is currently in Botswana’s capital Gaborone.

She was invited as a special guest to one of the capital’s peri-urban settlements called Tlokweng. The South East District Council was holding a special Clean Up Campaign event that was spearheaded by one of the women’s organizations in that part of the city.

While the women’s uniforms are seen as national regalia for Pedi women going through traditional wedding ceremonies in South Africa; they are, however, seen as a basic uniform by Botswana women heading the Tlokweng clean-up campaign.

And, Makhadzi being a special guest during the event, respectfully donned the regalia in support of the women.

She is not getting married anytime soon.

The celebrity boxing exhibition is set to take place in Sun City from April 8-11, with their fight happening on Saturday, April 9 at the Sun City Superbowl. Cassper took to social media to let fans know.

Actress and songstress Simphiwe’ Simz’ Ngema has opened up on how she has become everything she has always wanted after feeling empowered. The former Muvhango star revealed that due to becoming more empowered, she has now turned into a “s.e.xual beast”, among other things.

Simz has experienced her own fair share of challenges, perhaps more than the average person, and less than half a year ago, her marriage collapsed.

Speaking on how she is coping with the latest setback and how she is healing, Simphiwe said that she is now focusing on becoming everything she has always wanted.

The multi-talented media personality is now focusing on maximizing herself in the different facets of her life. She also cautioned people not to make assumptions about her.

In a heartfelt post on photo-sharing social media platform Instagram, Simz Ngema said,

“No matter what you’ve been through, who you become will always be a choice. We are not what happened to us. Go through it, don’t become it!

“Me, I’ve chosen to become everything I’ve always wanted to become. A motivational speaker, a spiritual woman, a woman who loves adventure, a s.e.xual beast, an entertainer, a dancer, a singer, an actor and most importantly a mother to a beautiful boy.

“No, you don’t know me, you just know parts of me I’ve decided to show you. Box me and I’ll shock you.”

A post shared by Simphiwe Ngema (@simzngema)

Simphiwe Ngema became a young widow at the age of 27. She was married to musician and Rhythm City star Dumi Masilela in May 2017 in a beautiful intimate wedding ceremony.

Unfortunately, their union was short-lived after Dumi Masilela was tragically killed when he was shot in a botched hijacking barely 3 months later.

After the pain of losing her husband, Simz was later able to move on and love again after she met Zimbabwean model Tino Chinyani in 2020. The two welcomed their son, Tiyani Chinyani, in the same year.

Unfortunately, it seems that it was not meant to be and Simz and Tino announced the end of their relationship last year.

Announcing the breakup, Simz said,

“An end to a beautiful love story. This has been one of my greatest experiences, a beautiful love story of two people fighting all the odds to be together. I have learnt to love again, to feel again, to live again, and to smile again. I will forever be grateful for everything you have taught me.

“@tiyani_chinyani we will always be great parents to you and we will always be there for you. No tears here, just lessons learnt and beautiful memories. I really had a beautiful fun weekend. Here’s to friendship and dope ass co-parenting. @Tino_chinyani Take care of yourself. Love you forever & always.”
