To win the urban vote, FOCUS on DELIVERING the essentials of urban life.

With 98% of the votes tallied, the emerging pattern shows the @MYANC with a good hold on rural areas.

We saw the same pattern in Zimbabwe… it was urban voters who moved away from ZANU PF while the rural voters remained loyal.

The explanation is simple: Voters in urban areas are greatly affected by the actions & inactions of politicians. Failure in urban areas manifests as lack of running water, bad roads, traffic congestion, dirty neighbourhoods etc - all these erode the very notion of urban life!

In Zimbabwe , it is possible for ZANU PF to take back control of urban areas mostly because the opposition has failed dismally…

In South Africa, the ANC’s chances of taking back control of metros will be very slim if the DA & other parties in control now deliver! Cape Town is now a DA stronghold because, largely, the DA has been doing well there.

At the very least, the ANC now need to consolidate its grip on rural areas by delivering there, otherwise the party will continue declining….

Victoria Falls is WILD…. Zimbabwe’s wildlife conservation and the management of human-wildlife conflict is TOP NOTCH…..

Of DEMOLITIONS in Zimbabwe & lessons from South Africa.

Many Zimbabweans, especially those in the diaspora, have fallen victim to scammers who sell land that they don’t own.

If u build on land that you don’t own, the real owner of that land has the right to evict you from it… & if you have built a house on the land, the real owner can demolish that house.

@Mavhure & @misscailah, you have been quite vocal about this issue, unfortunately the solution isn’t allowing illegalities… The solution is helping people do things right by making it easy for them to do things right.

In South Africa, you can pay a small fee to verify ownership of a property ONLINE. You can view the title deeds of the property & other information… this helps you to know if the person selling the property REALLY owns that property.

Zimbabwe, currently, doesn’t have this service because the process of digitising title deeds is currently underway. For this, we gotta thank President @edmnangagwa because he is bringing a PERMANENT solution - Zimbabweans will be able to easily verify the authenticity of a title deed. The issue of fake title deeds will come to an end.

In addition, Zimbabweans need to know that after buying land, the ownership should be transferred to you. It’s surprising that people who have bought cars & changed ownership are not aware that if they buy land they should have something proving ownership.

A house is a big investment, especially in Zimbabwe. You can’t spend $60 000 building a house yet you didn’t verify ownership & transferred ownership.

Zimbabwe has registered CONVEYANCERS… if you buy a stand or a house, you MUST seek the services of these Conveyancers so that they help you verify ownership and also transfer the property to you…

All the mess we are seeing stems from ignorance and also the culture of taking shortcuts…

Here are examples of sites in South Africa where people can search property records ONLINE.

Why do people love buying from these land barons?? After all the pain experienced from demolitions of illegal settlements, why do we still have people falling for the scams?

It’s a VERY SIMPLE matter: Verify ownership and transfer ownership upon buying… INVOLVE conveyancers ALWAYS!

It’s very common that side… some prefer it over beef….
