      The Zim side was well developed during your time with many lodges during your time. I have been to both sides of the falls & l can say that both sides have some unique features of the falls. The Zim side has more water especially in Summer. The Zambian side has the knife edge bridge which gives the tourist a pinnacle experience of seeing the falls much closer. Zambia has also caught up with some beautiful hotels & lodges

That is why they keep pushing only negativity about africa on their media in order to continue keeping themselves(the west)as a superior race & also relevant to d world.

      I thought for a moment that Wode Maya got so excited that he lost control and got carried away. We like it that he has made it his crusade to promote and show case the continent. But we are against his proposal to change the name of "victoria falls" or any other historical landmarks as a backlash to anything Western-European. Victoria falls is part of Zimbabwe (Rhodesia) history, regardless of the good and bad. What you say and how you say it matters. Because if you follow this logic you may end up with no countries at all but independent tribal lands opposed to each others. And no use of the English language to communicate between Africans in Africa and between Africans and the outside world. You would stop the use of an airplane , cars, trains because they are made in Western Europe.
      How about landmarks in the Americas, the western Europe and Asia bearing the names of Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela , Patrice Lumumba ? It is high time to accept the fact that modern Africa is actually an extension of western Europe. With centuries of shared history, even if we overlook this fact and don't talk about it often because of racial politics from all sides. A vision of 18th century western European political leaders, here to stay for ever.
      No need to engage in counter productive culture wars that you cant control and cant win. Not necessary. Not a priority. Ordinary Africans want good paying jobs, responsible political leaders, good health care, freedom to travel any where within the continent cheaply , comfortably without harassment. Leave victoria falls alone.

    This piece of paradise belongs to Africa. The name must reflect the culture and heritage of the Africa people and not the white man. Historically, many white/european people have a habit of pretending to discover practically everything that's magnificent and then claiming those things that God has given to his indigenous people as their european treasures for their egotistical glory. The mandate of heaven has spoken and Africa is being resurrected for all the world to see. She is calling her African diaspora home.
    I would also like to see the African diaspora stop showcasing european fashions in Africa and start wearing traditional African garments that reflect their majestic indigenous cultures.
