Zimbabwe Republic Police Cracks Down on Smuggling in Kwekwe

The Zimbabwe Republic Police Midlands Province has announced the latest update on its operation against smuggling of goods,which was launched by the government in December 2024. The operation has resulted in the recovery of 14 bales of second-hand goods from two buses owned by TripTrans bus company in Kwekwe on January 24, 2025.

Three individuals,Ndlovu Eliazer age 35 from Melbereign Harare,Sebenzeni Tinashe age 31 from Magwegwe Bulawayo and Dozva Nhonhita age 42 from Heartfield Harare were arrested and charged with contravening Section 38 (1) of the Customs and Excise Act,Chapter 23.02.They were fined USD 800,ZWL 1,812, and ZWL 6,000,respectively.

The anti-smuggling operation in Kwekwe is a collaborative effort between the Criminal Investigation Department,Police Intelligence and Operation Sections of the Zimbabwe Republic Police,and the Zimbabwe Revenue Authority. The operation aims to curb smuggling activities and promote compliance with the country's laws governing importation of goods.

The public is reminded to abide by these laws and the operation is ongoing.This crackdown is part of a broader effort to combat smuggling in Zimbabwe,which has resulted in significant losses for the country's revenue.

Rubaya,mining town in North Kivu Province (Eastern DRC),by April of 2024,was taken over by M23 rebels backed by Rwanda.And Rwanda is listed as one of the sources of suppliers of 3Ts to the US global tech company... Apple.
Bintou Keita head of UN mission in Congo, commented that:
"The criminal laundering of the DRC's natural resources smuggled out of the country is strengthening armed groups "
In 2022,Rwanda is said to have sold an estimated Billion _ dollar worth of 3T minerals despite having little deposits in it's own territory...Where is Rwanda getting these Key 3Ts minerals?, off course," it's all coming from DRC, that's obvious"

The Key 3 Ts
The Washington DC based law firm was tasked by Kinshasa to investigate supply chains for illegally extracted & siphoned minerals from Congo especially the 3Ts,that is,Tin,Tungsten & Tantalum.These 3Ts are critical for electronics,automative & aerospace industries.

Extractivism As Rush For Global CRMs(Green Metals) Kicks On

which greatly contribute in the destruction of the Ozone layer which leads to the phenomenon of Climate Change & Global Warming. However,for the past decade,China has dominated in the supply chain of Green Metals in Africa.The West does not like or want to depend on China especially so since China is currently the largest producer of EVs at the moment. Thus,Western countries like the US has begun fostering partnerships to explore untapped CRMs,Green Metals in Africa.

Opportunity For Africa
Africa policymakers & those in the corridors of power should seize this opportunity,make shrewd negotiations & push for strategic smart partnerships. African policymakers should push for local processing of these Green Metals not just extraction deals.Local processing or refinery of such metals guarantees local employment,infrastructural developments as well as many other economic benefits. Priority should be on local beneficiation_ adding value to raw materials before their exporting. Investing in facilities for processing & refinery of such Green Metals domestically.The aim is Win_Win smart partnership that benefits locals (not only local elites) but local ordinary citizens as well as local economies.

Conclusion
Africa's mineral wealth offers immense potential for development BUT mineral wealth induced development or success depends on ability of African policymakers & those in corridors of power to push for local processing & smart partnerships in the exploitation of these Green Metals. African policymakers need & should aim to build sustainable,equitable partnerships that prioritize local development alongside global needs.Balance need for foreign investment with local African aspirations and avoid "resource curse".Actions taken today will shape future of global Green Metals industry and Africa's role within Green Metals industry.

Local Processing Above Extractivism As Rush For Global CRMs(Green Metals) Kicks On

Global Investment
Global billionaires Bill Gates & Jeff Bezos invest a staggering US$537 million in various mining ventures for Critical Rare Metals (CRMs), especially so, Green Metals. The investment is done by Microsoft's Bill Gates & Amazon's Jeff Bezos through United States of America (US)'s KoBold Metals, a US mining company. According to KoBold company this half billion dollars raised will " _finance new exploration, help advance high potential projects to production, and bolster research & development_ "

Focus
The billionaires's focus is on securing access,control & ownership of Critical Rare Metals (CRMs) especially so Green Metals which are seen as essential minerals for green technology & future industries.

What Are Green Metals?
Green Metals is a term used to describe a set of metals that are utilized in clean energy applications and can achieve net zero emissions targets.Therefore,Green Metals are considered environmentally friendly.Examples of Green Metals include lithium,aluminum,titanium,nickel,copper,cobalt etc

What Makes A Metal Green?
A metal is considered green if it has low carbon emissions over it's life cycle.This includes the carbon emissions from mining,transporting,refining,melting,forming, recycling & disposing of the metal.The term "Green" refers to next to zero carbon emissions not it's colour.

Why Green Metals Matter?
As the World increasingly makes a transition into Green Technology(environmentally friendly) Green Metals are increasingly becoming important.Moreso,as the world is now focusing on production of the "future car", an Electrical Vehicles (EVs).Specifically Green Metals are vital in the production of EVs batteries,cobalt in making the main frame & copper in the wiring of such EV battery.Fossil Fuels are being relegated for as the argument goes,their burning produces a lot of carbon emissions.

Night of 17 January 1961 between 9:30 pm & 9:45pm
After severe,inhuman beatings,torture & unexplainable brutality..Lumumba & associates,tired to trees somewhere in Katanga forests in DRC.. the three were irrigated by bullets by firing squad,the last to be sprayed was Patrice Emery Lumumba.Initially,their bodies thrown in shallow graves.Later they were dug up under the direction of Belgian officers,cut into pieces & thrown into sulphuric acid.It was only 61 years later in 2022 that on June 2022 Lumumba's tooth was handed to Lumumba's family.The tooth had been taken as a souvenir by one of the murderous Belgian officer..was returned to DRC for a befitting state burial.It the state burial the current DRC president had this to say;

We are ending mourning we started 61 years ago... finally the Congolese people have been given the honour to bury their illustrious Prime Minister(Lumumba)

Legacy
Lumumba was for a unitary Congo & to against division of the country along ethnic or regional lines.
Like many other African leaders,he supported pan_ Africanism & the liberation of colonial Africa.He proclaimed his regime one of " positive neutralism",which he defined as a return to African values & rejection of any imported ideology.He also demanded that all mineral wealth be handed to Congolese for the benefit of it's people (Africans).

Lumumba Asks Us Questions From The Grave
This year marks 64 anniversary after the death of one of the greatest sons of Africa,Patrice Emery Lumumba.
However,Lumumba's memory continues to pose questions.He wanted one Unitary Congo state & was against division along tribal or regional lines...as Africans have we shunned tribalism & regionalism?.
Lumumba became a marked man because he wanted total independence of Congo...as Africans have we achieved total independence?.Lumumba demanded that mineral wealth of Congo be given to the children of Congo for the benefit of Congo.

17 January 1961...Sad Day For Africa.

Demanding 17 January be declared LUMUMBA DAY On A Pan_ Africanist Calendar

African Hero
Patrice Émery Lumumba born Isaïe Tasumbu Tawosa,2 July 1925 born in the village of Onalua in Kasai Province of DRC. Lumumba was a Congolese politician and independence leader who served as the first democratically elected prime minister of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).

Role in Independence of DRC
Lumumba as the leader of the Congolese National Movement (MNC) was instrumental in attainment of DRC independence from Belgium. Ideologically,Lumumba was an African and pan-Africanist.

Round Table Talks 20 January to 20 February 1960
Lumumba's role as a national leader was visible in the Brussels Round Table Talks,sadly,Lumumba had to be released from Belgian jail in DRC upon the request of MNC delegation and attended the table talks with visible signs of torture & wounds of handcuffs on his wrists.The conference culminated on 27 January 1960 with a declaration of Congolese independence.

30 June 1960 Independence Of DRC Speech

We are going to show the world what the Black man & woman can do when he works in freedom and we are going to make of the Congo the center of the sun's radiance for all of Africa.We are going to keep watch over the lands of our country so that they truly profit her children " Lumumba's speech,June 1960.

Plot Against Lumumba
On September 5 1960 the then DRC President,Joseph Kasavubu dismissed Lumumba,but the legalities of the move were immediately contested by Lumumba; as a result a discord arose.On September 14 1960 power was seized by the Congolese army leader Colonel Joseph Mobutu supported by Americans & Belgians. In November 1960 the General Assembly of the United Nations (UN) recognized Kasavubu & General Mobutu's government.

Arrest,torture & brutalisation
In October 1960, Lumumba was placed under house arrest in Léopoldville,guarded not only by Mobutu’s forces but by those of the UN.

17/01/2025

SADC Response
Portugal's position has provoked a sharp rebuke from Southern Africa Development Community (SADC).Critics of Portugal resolution have fingers pointed at Portugal accusing Lisbon of engaging in.

This,some observers view Portugal Parliamentary resolution as nothing but interference in Mozambique affairs & a direct attack on Mozambique sovereignty.

Such school of thought view Mozambique's elections and subsequent governance issues fall within the preview of African regional bodies such as SADC & African Union(AU), not under European countries like Portugal or European Union (EU).Hence,Portugal's resolution move is viewed in the context of
" _clinging to historical dominance_ ".
And Portugal' s action is seen in the light of broader Western efforts to destabilize Africa,install pro_ Western regimes so as to perpetuate their neo_ colonial tendencies...as the argument goes;

African Solutions
In light of contemporary developments in Mozambique,observers have questioned the narrative of African led solutions to African problems..whom there argue are failing short of addressing real issues,sometimes late & sometimes non_ existent.They accuse African regional bodies as being ineffective,,incompetent & impotent . Mozambique has been burning and the best SADC could do so far has been to merely issue out " _statements of concern_ '.SADC like it's fellow Economic Community Of West African States (ECOWAS) in West Africa have been singled out for repeatedly failing to take meaningful action to address issues at hand.

Conclusion
As the situation continues to unfold in Mozambique with no signs of getting better serious key question on the delicate balance between international advocacy for democracy & the respect for sovereignty of a nation(especially in post_ colonial African nations) is being raised.
Where does or should humanitarian concern start & end? ..or where exactly does interference start?.
