South African leader Julius Malema missed a UK speaking event after his visa failed to arrive. The Economic Freedom Fighters party claims British officials held up paperwork on purpose to keep him away. Malema was set to address Cambridge University about Africa on May 10. He says officials tried to silence him because he criticizes Western countries. His party shared a letter from the UK diplomat who blamed recent holidays for delays.
British official Antony Phillipson wrote that he felt sorry that the visa process took longer than expected. He promised to refund the application fees paid early. The home office refused to talk about this specific case when asked. Malema says embassy staff told him everything would work out just hours...
A former airplane worker asked the transport minister to hire old Air Namibia staff for the planned new airline. Vaino Hangula spoke up as a member of parliament from the Affirmative Repositioning party. He wants Minister Veikko Nekundi to bring back workers who lost their jobs when Air Namibia closed in 2021. The airline shut down after years of money problems left it deep in debt.
The government aims to launch a fresh national carrier before December 2026. Hangula claims he and other former employees have special skills that nobody else in Namibia offers. He told officials these workers should help research, develop, establish, and run the upcoming airline. Their experience makes them perfect candidates for the new operation. The...
Intel hinted at new Arc Pro work computers coming to Taiwan next month, aimed at pros who make things. The company posted about fresh workstation cards instead of the gaming hardware that many people expected. Computer fans noticed new parts labeled BMG in code updates earlier this year. Tech experts believe a special Arc Pro B60 model will carry 24 GB of memory through a 192-bit link.
This card uses the same core that powers current B580 and B570 boards, but packs more memory for bigger projects. A dealer in China said custom cards might sell between May and June 2025. These cards help with drawing programs, video work, and math tasks rather than games. Photos show a fan that blows air straight through, like older Pro A60 cards did...

A man from Kwekwe asked Parliament to investigate money problems with businessman Wicknell Chivayo. Emmanuel Moyo wrote to Speaker Jacob Mudenda about a huge $100 million election tender. He wants lawmakers to check how Chivayo got R800 million from a South African printing deal for ballot papers. The South African money team has already flagged strange bank moves through FNB, Standard Bank, and Absa accounts.
Moyo believes Parliament must use its power to monitor public cash spent on this deal. The petition points to parts of Zimbabwe law that make Parliament responsible for tracking government spending. Money reports show Chivayo spent cash on fancy clothes, cars, trips abroad, and houses. People say he paid off important officials...
Health officials lashed out when Youth Minister Machakaire talked about hospital problems to President Mnangagwa. They said his words attacked their hard work during tough times with little cash. Machakaire shared online that he saw awful things when he visited a sick family member. He asked Mnangagwa to tour medical centers himself to see what people deal with daily.
Most people found it strange to hear a minister speak honestly about government failures. Nurses back up what Machakaire said about healthcare troubles across Zimbabwe. They lack medicine, tools, equipment, and staff members for proper care. Some nurses must handle up to thirty patients at once in packed wards. People blame nurses when sick folks wait hours for help...
