Warriors super fan Alvin Aluvah Zhakata has been stuck in Cameroon for some months now due to a series of unfortunate events. It however looks like things have not been as we seemed or expected.

Many people on social media have been advocating that money be put together to rescue Zhakata from his unfortunate predicament that has left him reportedly living on the streets of Cameroon. He apparently has been stuck there because he couldn’t settle a hotel bill and also could not board the plane until he settled the debt.

New evidence has been posted on Facebook that Collins Mnangagwa actually made efforts to save the superfan by sending him US$1 200 to solve the matter. The evidence of the Western union receipts was sent with the caption;

“I am disappointed , He is a scam artist

In February Alvin Harry Jnr Zhakata contacted me saying aripama1 akuda bag and l have to call Collins Mnangagwa for helping him and Collins send him US $1200

Mupfana asadaro uyu

Tirimusango Wenje”

Pictorial evidence of the Western Union transactions to Aluvah in February

There have also been reports that the claims he made about Samuel Eto’o paying his hospital bills in Cameroon are also not true. According to Pindula Aluvah declined the help of a well-wisher who offered to purchase the ticket directly, without giving him the money. The article also questions why the super fan reportedly has an iPhone 13 but still fails to find a means to get back home.

With all this information in the light, one wonders why Aluvah is still stuck in Cameroon. The superfan broke the silence for the first time in months and posted on Twitter saying;

“This is not to DEFEND or COVER me , it will probably accentuate & giv a clearer pic to the world, coz i know , if i leave without giving out a word, THEY will use all means to say ‘u see’ & all focus will be shifted on that end.

It is mo terrible even that @robertmarawa has the duty to TELL & RETELL this story that will be a’worldie’. Fo the avoidance of doubt, i have (conviniently) chosen @Wamagaisa (pvt) , Skhu(Gvt media) & Wellence(yuth & social media)

Titanic has sunk, taking 1500 souls with it!

That whoever wil say ‘he is seeking attention’ or remedy , does not concern me , coz for me the rubicon has been crossed, i am the fall guy (DESERVEDLY) . But im hopping one day 1 person will realize that even I wasn’t Jesus, im not really JUDAS”

This tweet has left many people baffled and failing to understand what the Warriors fan is trying to say. The only part that may be understandable is the picture of the Titanic sinking and that can be understood as a distress call. Many people have asked why he cannot just accept the shame and come home than wait for people to send him more money to spend in Cameroon.

It’s clear that Aluvah has gone to many lengths to support his favourite sport and soccer team. He has done everything from walking to hitchhiking across many countries just to support the warriors.  Yet one has to wonder if he has not taken it too far and perhaps become a nuisance in the process. Is it not high time that the super fan accepts that money plays an important role in what he can do and perhaps next time he should be more content with watching the game from the comfort of his home?

It’s been two months since the AFCON (Africa Cup Of all Nations) where super Warriors fan Alvin Aluvah Zhakata went to support the warriors.

Aluvah has been known to go to extremes to support the national team and this year was no exception as he was determined to support them in Cameroon. Aluvah chose to remain behind when the Warriors returned home.

Aluvah unfortunately got sick and had to be hospitalized. Fecafoot President Samuel Eto’o paid Aluvah’s hospital bills. Shortly after being discharged from the hospital, Aluvah got into trouble for failing to pay his hotel bills.

A Twitter user named @MahachieJosey tweeted that the superfan is currently still stranded in Cameroon and is living on the streets of Yaounde. The tweet goes on to say that Aluvah was set to return home in February but he was forced to abandon his trip after he was told at the airport that he had outstanding bills to settle

Foolishness is trying the same thing over again and expecting different results, this statement holds true for the Zimbabwe Warriors, which are fast becoming another Arsenal.

The Zimbabwe football squad under the Croatian, Zdravko Logarusic is showing no signs of improvement even with big names like Marshall Munetsi, Khama Billiat and prolific striker Knowledge Musona, granted we were missing Marvelous Nakamba.

With the introduction of Benjani Mwaruwari as Assistant Coach, fans were expectant of some improvement but nothing has changed, although in all fairness ‘Loga’ has the last say.

Despite ZIFA offering a US$64 000 winning bonus for the Warriors we still succumbed to the perceived weakest link in the Group G, Ethiopia.

Zimbabwe is currently siting at the bottom of the table in Group G, which is widely regarded as an easy group. Zimbabwe is now expected to face Ghana which is no push-over.

Current 2022 World Cup Qualifiers Group G Standings

The big question is, is Zdravko Logarusic the right man for the job?

In the past 14 games, he has only managed 1 Win, 8 Draws and 5 Defeats, and just to put it into perspective Egypt has sacked their coach Hossam El Badry for drawing to  Gabon, he has 5 wins and 4 draws in his past 9 matches.

Following the loss to Ethiopia in the 2022 World Cup Qualifiers Loga didn’t even take responsibility but he rather apportioned the blame to the referees and the players, sounds like Arsenal’s coach Mikel Arteta and look where they are.

In my opinion ZIFA has no choice but to sack Loga before it gets worse, what do you think?

Manchester United fans are surely in for a treat from Chritiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese footballer  who recently made a shock move from Juventus to his former club Manchester United, has issued his first statement at the club.

Writing on his Facebook page Christiano had this to say:

Everyone who knows me, knows about my never ending love for Manchester United. The years I spent in this club where absolutely amazing and the path we’ve made together is written in gold letters in the history of this great and amazing institution.

I can’t even start to explain my feelings right now, as I see my return to Old Trafford announced worldwide. It’s like a dream come true, after all the times that I went back to play against Man. United, and even as an opponent, to have always felt such love and respect from the supporters in the stands. This is absolutely 100% the stuff that dreams are made of!

My first domestic League, my first Cup, my first call to the Portuguese National team, my first Champions League, my first Golden Boot and my first Ballon d’Or, they were all born from this special connection between me and the Red Devils. History has been written in the past and history will be written once again! You have my word!

I’m right here!
I’m back where I belong!
Let’s make it happen once again!

PS – Sir Alex, this one is for you…

By now when we think of soccer stars that are flying the Zimbabwean flag high abroad we think of the same names we’re so used to hearing. The likes of Tino Kadewere, Khama Biliat, Knowledge Musona among others who have been in the game for a while. Some of them even form the 30 man squad that will be playing in the World Cup qualifiers. But now we will hear of some new blood that’s flying the flag high in the soccer field.

A Zimbabwean teen has just signed a professional contract with a UK League one football club, Sunderland. The teenager, Ethan Kachosa, was previously playing for EPL side Leeds United. He was part of the Leeds academy and in 2019 was named the Best Academy player.

He played his first match with Sunderland against Everton and scored a  goal which assisted in the teams 4 -3 win. His management has since confirmed the deal on his Instagram page.
