Eziachi: And he still retained his colonial names of Robert Gabriel? As a wise man, he should have started with his own name in his colonial cleansing campaign. A washed out and outdated dictator, who has ran out of idea.kindly stop being stupid it was already called mosi oa tunya before it was changed to Victoria Falls, its simply giving it back its original name, whats wrong with that? |

@Post I agree with Mugabe. All uncle Mugabe is doing is giving the falls its original name back. So, I support. |

Wale112: President Robert Mugabe wants Victoria Falls to be renamed 'the smoke that thunders' to get rid of its colonial history. The president of Zimbabwe believes Victoria Falls does not reflect its liberation heritage.Bunch of idiots.! How does this improve their badly battered economy and put food on the tables of millions of impoverished Zimbabweans? Misplaced priorities. |

Mondisweets: Before it was named Victoria falls, it was intially known as Musi oa Tunya.But the translation kinda beats me....but the reclaiming of the old name is a good move. |
Re: Mugabe Renames Victoria Falls To Mosi Oa Tunya by KiKatanga: 5:16pm On Dec 21, 2013 |
So don't translate it? Oxford means "The Shallow Stream across a road, of the Oxen" but you don't translate it either. |

HumbledbYGrace: But the translation kinda beats me....but the reclaiming of the old name is a good move.lol I went there when I was younger...its quite noisey like thunder and u have to wear a raincoat if u want a better and closer view of it...the showers are like smoke...so I guess that's how it came to be the thunder that's smokes |
Re: Mugabe Renames Victoria Falls To Mosi Oa Tunya by HumbledbYGrace(f): 5:51pm On Dec 21, 2013 |
Ki-Katanga:I don't know what that name has got anything to do with Zimbabwe, the name is Southern Sotho my language which means it was named by the Sotho's that lives in Zambia. Musi is smoke right? Wa- is of Thunya- the sound that's made by a gun, when its being fired. So I think it merely means the smoking waterfall because of its nature. |

Re: Mugabe Renames Victoria Falls To Mosi Oa Tunya by seanet01: 9:33am On Dec 22, 2013 |
justwise:Yeah, your own sense of direction is surrendering the resources of a nation to imperialists so that you can be painted white in the western media Some of you are despicably lame intellectually and mentally fraught with fantasies to reason beyond your malfunctioning sight. If what Mugabe has done is not pleasing to your brainwashed soul, please do the needful Jump in Mosi Oa Tunya |

seanet01: seanet01: I thought as the world gets more civilized we will have less of little mined morons like you disgracing themselves, anybody who refuses to swallow your ant-west nonsense is called all sorts of names, only brain dead individuals like you will see Mugabe as a hero. Since 1980 he dine and wine with the same west, he accepted the white farmers who are also Zimbabweans as well, the economy were one of the best in Africa, they enjoyed heavily subsidized education and health care from the white farmers and the west. But since the MDC was formed the tyrant felt threatened and unleashed the most horrific spread of violence against anybody who is not Zanu-PF member or dare disagree with him. Was it not the same Mugabe who actively supported Nigeria suspension from Commonwealth during Abacha regime? Mugabe did worst than Abacha and ruined Zimbabwe. How can a single human being rule a country since 1980 till today? Fools like you go around talking nonsense about issue you know next to nothing about. What resources did west stole from Zimbabwe? |
Re: Mugabe Renames Victoria Falls To Mosi Oa Tunya by seanet01: 10:25am On Dec 22, 2013 |
justwise:Mumu, stop chewing wet weed. Mor0ns like you should tell us why America and your co western nations have refused to stop selling modern weapons to Saudi Arabia and the gulf countries despite the fact that they have been ruled by same tyrants even before Rhodesia was renamed into Zimbabwe. The queen of England have been the head of State before you were even born, So what the heck is your own problem with Zimbabwean deciding that Mugabe should continue ruling them? Entirely none of your own business Fck off 3 Likes |

seanet01: seanet01: Brainwashed monkeys like you should not have been allowed anywhere near the keyboard. You are what i called you in my previous post, the part in bold proves me right, i knew you know absolutely nothing about Zimbabwe and can not put together any convincing argument. So the UK and Zimbabwe are practicing the same system of govt? Complete waste of space you are. So Saudi and other gulf countries don't have the right to ow modern weapons? What has that got to do with this topic anyway? |
Re: Mugabe Renames Victoria Falls To Mosi Oa Tunya by seanet01: 11:22am On Dec 22, 2013 |
justwise: [/b]mumu, the same west that sees nothing wrong in the same person ruling Saudi Arabia since ages should not see anything wrong in Mugabe ruling since 80. If you don't get the drift about selling deadly weapons to tyrants like the Saudi wahabis, why are you hallucinating over the reclamation of land from Zimbabwean whites? did they carry land on their Igbo when they were coming from europe?

justwise:lol. Instead of you to defend your rather lame and incoherent conclusions on Zimbabwe, you resorted to blabbing like a confused driver. Now tell me, What right do yo have to tell somebody to stop talking about Zimbabwe when you don't even seem to know nada about the country? Speaking as if he was born and breed in Zimbabwe. Fact is no matter how hard you agents of neo-colonization try, Africa will never be colonized again. Let that sink into your thick skull 1 Like |
