Leanrt some v interesting information watching this video and this is from someone who had lived in Umtali (Mutare) for the first 7 years of his life. ZimTechGuy, this is only the second video I have watched of yours but the work, research and effort is outstanding (if only I was this good!): many thanks, well done and keep up the high standard.
Love the video and info shared... I'm just saddened that Zimbabwe still hasn't developed much at all and still live off Rhodesian infrastructure. Currently live in a run down Rhodesia
Good breakdown brother.We love your detailed research.
Interesting information there brother ,keep up the good work.
i’m so happy i found this channel
Very interesting, well done, please keep making videos
Thank you, will do
We need “guides” not teachers to encourage creative and free thinking in our next generations. I am inspired to find others like you to join our alternative to schools project in Tanzania 💪🏽💪🏽
It used to be such a quaint little city. Grew up there during its prime.
Very good my brother. You're a treasure. More strength.®®®

Amazing History, I'm Ndebele but I grew up in Gweru, any history on that? Also with regards to Patreon, may you please send the subscription details.
Hi Cyril, you can go to patreon.com/zimtechguy
It's the detailed commentary
I wish they could also restore back its original name UMtali
As if whites found the place uninhabited
Umtali is a bastardisation of Mutare. Nothing original about that
Well done sir, great vid. Keep it going mate.
Thanks man
Thank you. Very informative.
Thanks for watching
Thank you bro
No, thank you for watching!
Mutare has the potential to become a TV and Television heaven. A lot of investment is needed. State-of-art production studios and we are ready.
Really!, I'm interested to know why you think so?
@@ZimTechGuy it just has the scenery. It's the center of Manicaland political and socioeconomic might. The nature is some of the best in the world. And it's far away from the big Bulawayo and Harare. It has the potential to become our own Hollywood. What with the abundance of hills lol
Amen. It's got the scenery with a city vibe and small town feel.
Hooyooo kwamtare kwangu
This is good
Thank you
CAN I HAVE HISTROY OF GWANDA TOWN
One fun fact. When Major Forbes fought and defeated the Portuguese to take Manicaland and Mutare from the Portuguese he started chasing he retreating Portuguese till he got to where Forbes border post is today.
He didn't want to proceed without authority so he sent a message to Rhodes. Rhodes had been drinking and didnt see the message untill next day as he was hungover. Had Rhodes seen and responded Major Forbes intended to chase the Portuguese right until the port of city of Beira. Beira would have been Rhodesia and Zimbabwe to this day
True story. You can check this independently
Wrong my friend. The English did chase the Portuguese but had to turn back because they knew they would be unable to defeat them. One thing is a small battle, another thing is invading and taking over a country. Many tried, besides the British, Dutch, French, Omanís, etc. They all afiles.
They all failed.
Hi Tim
It wasn't to invade Mozambique but just up to Beira
Manyika is not Shona
Learn the definition of dialect first before commenting nonsense
@@h.m.5724 Manyika is a language. As our constitution states. That's if you know what a constitution is. It was always a language. We had our own kingdom and King. We had rich gold and silver reserves which the Portuguese and Arabs traded and looted. Learn your national history
Chief Mutasa then wasn't a shona chief. Us manyika were NOT shona people at the time of colonisation
Just thought i would correect you there but otherwise nice video
Thanks for the correction, much appreciated
