    Demarcated as a township in 1978 by the Bulawayo City Council, Gwabalanda is located 13 km from the city’s CBD. The township falls under the jurisdiction of Luveve and was named after King Mzilikazi’s first Chief and Chief of Chiefs under the Mthwakazi State, Gwabalanda Mathe. In this documentary, historian Mzala Tom gives us an overview of who Gwabalanda Mathe was, and we meet up with two Chefs who reside in the area and they give us a guide on the demarcation and food culture of the area. Also, an elder by the name of Mrs Mpofu tells us about life growing up in this incredible place. We also get to tour notable ‘bus stops’ such as Emastepsini, Ku-Sixty, Estubhini (from the Afrikaans word Stoep), Fifa, the famous Dollarhouse and Steelhouse, Amakhosi, Fusi, ema-Five and emaChurch turn. In the kitchen, we visit a cook who is located KoMaplanka for a delicious meal.

    I grew up here..the story abt the dollar house is that the area had new houses being built ,it was called Glenkara homes then.There was a raffle n the tickets were Z$1 and the prize was the show house"the dollar house".So wen it was won ,everyone started calling it the dollar house.The house won with Z$1. It was way back in the late 80s.

    The music blends in well.Thanks Magriza.I really loves Gwabalanda with its big original houses and the famous Amakhosi grounds.I love how Gwabalanda meets Magwegwe North.Just as you think you are still in Magwegwe North,Gwabalanda greets you with its big houses and you can only marvel at the meeting.My biggest friend stayed in Gwabalanda and that made this Kasi a darling to my heart.The music bode very well Magriza.Hats off to the artist-he must not stop there.

  • @isaymymind1727

    The dollar house was called so because in the early 90s when that area was built, one particular house was put on a dollar raffle and someone won it.

    Gwabalanda, Ziyaphapha my hood. Stha The Chef you know Gwabalanda. Most pple used to confuse Steel House and Dollar House. Dollar House umnikazi got it by winning it through lottery by ticket nge One dollar. It's the first house in that section, yahlala many years engila makhelwane before stands were demarcated. The guy doing haircut ngumtshana Ka Mlaji usebenzeka khona ko Mlaji e Ziyaphapha.

    Thank you Magriza very informative, I would like to visit Gwabalanda it seems like a very cool hood. Keep up with the good work. All the best keep the people informed about Bulawayo and Zim it's a good thing to do cos there is a lot of ignorance out there about Zimbabwe and it's people, culture, mass media has totally distorted the real Zimbabwe and painted a picture that depicts totally opposite the reality on the ground despite challenges which is the beautiful people who are resilient and very enterprising and happy people.
