  1. Ndebele kingdom n shona kingdom were two separate states. Mashonaland was occupied by settlers thru peace because they promised the kings n chiefs of shona people to protect them against their enemies ndebele ,shangane and also disband expansion of Portuguese colonisation.
    2000shona men was trained by settlers to fight ndebele kingdom at Mbembesi battle known as Gadade.

    Rudd concession and any other signature signed by Ndebele kings HD got nothing to do with Mashonaland people . Know true history don't publish biased verdicts based on tribalism

  2. Do you know how the all the buildings were made? Like did the british just build themselves, where did all the cranes come from, where the natives involved in any capacity? Also is it correct that there was zero modern style houses before the british?

  3. The truth is, Rhodes and Lobangula (Son of Mzilikazi) were friends and it was Rhodes that PERSUADED Lobangula a Ndebele to stop hunting the shona in mashonaland. Rhodes was a builder who build Rhodesia then Mugabe came along and broke it down again. There was never hatred in Rhodesia between white and black but there was always tension between the shona and Ndebele and as a policeman in the early days many times attended scenes of conflict between the two tribes. Nkomo himself admits that he made the mistake of taking sides with Mugabe. Nguruhundi was going to come to revenge the earlier days (before the whites came) of the Ndebebele slaughter of the Shona tribe. I was in attendance at the Mtumbane when the forces Zipra and Zanla were housed in Bulawayo after the war and even then the hatred of each other continued and they fought each other violently. Why do some people hide the true facts from our children. All the white man did was come to Rhodesia to try and find peace and build a beautiful first world country for All Rhodesian's to prosper from. People had jobs, education and a wonderful lifestyle and NOW there nothing left. 99.9 % of whites grew up with blacks and were keen to see change where all were equal in standard and yes we should have done this earlier than we did, but still I have wonderful black friends in high places in Zimbabwe who all agree it was better for them and their families under Rhodesian rule that it was under Mugabe's Zimbabwe rule which may I add was in power three times longer than Smiths Regime. God Bless Zimbabwe that they may now see logic, stop blaming colonialists, introduce a young educated youth to take over and use the vast skills past and present to rebuild the breadbasket it once was. Nkosi Sikele Afrika.

  4. Great piece of African story being told by an African, now wait for the negative comments from the right wings-experts of the De Beers and the Cecil John Rhodes #I-rest-My-Case

  5. Pioneers were great strong men, warriors in their own right. Had to fight their way up, greatly out numbered,
    which you fail to mention in your propaganda.
    I Don't see any great African Pioneers, ohh, wait a minute, maybe they are Zimbabwean pioneers going down to South Africa.
    How the wheel has turned. Lol.
    On reflection, when the whites landed at the cape, they should of got straight back on their ships and fucked off to Australian / US / Canada; and just left Africa for the Africans.

  6. Very sad what has happened since 1980- so many lives lost- a country that was called the “bread basket of Africa” reduced to third world poverty and tyranny. Hopefully things can get better but it will be a long process.
