Memories! I attended Khumalo Primary School, then Milton High. It was a great time, and the city was beautiful. Centenary Park was down the road and the playground had an armoured car you could climb in. There was Ascot shopping centre with its huge library. There was Borrow Street swimming pool. And the shops! Meikles, Haddon & Sly, Edgars... Life was good. The City of Kings indeed!
This video was taken the year l was born. Bulawayo was so beautiful. I went to Khumalo then Townsend and we used to walk into town after spending school bus money. The good old days 😂
Thank you for the great memories. This is the year I reluctantly left BYO for overseas😅😅 Totally different now, not the same anymore which is very sad. The young generations we have lost to preventable deaths at home and overseas due to unemployment.
Thanks for upload. 1987 i was just less than 3 years old . Ohhhh it was indeed beautiful.....its sad though that not much infrastructure has changed since then.
@mazafhakar3971 We do need people like you. Honestly, Africa needs to think of the next person and the future of our children and grandchildren. We can't be this selfish and greedy, surely. So disappointed in our people
It's not African people who are as you describe, it is all people. Europeans for example can afford not to grab and steel only because they mostly already have enough.

Bulawayo the City of Kings the City of our forefathers .Emzini wama Ndebele this city looked 10/10 during this era well the so called know it all ZANU Shit F destroyed it .
1987 you can still clearly see the infrastructure of Rhodesia there the Fountains the roads everything there . Still quite nice today But nothing like it was
before zanu pf destroyed the country ..it's a shame for some people to rig elections to destroy a country to the state it is now ..the best was at least to maintain what was already there ...zanu pf has totally failed Zimbabweans
I was there with my wife in December 2019. Very rundown shops and businesses, police road blocks every few miles on national highways, low wages and high prices. Zanu PF have stolen every election since 2000. Most people who could left for RSA and elsewhere during the 00s inflation.

You can see Zanu has does nothing no upgrades everything is as is only dirty and dilapidated. Yes like Mugabe said we never said Independence would bring prosperity and he ment it.
@@brianmuvuti2505 they have taken over management positions in that city especially in companies even now city council is Shona dominated.Its the Shona speaking executives who bankrupted all the factories in bulawayo through their corrupting tribalism and nepotism.the little industry that was left in bulawayo was moved Harare now everyone here is unemployed and struggling

Everything has got worse since Mugabe took absolute power!
Makes me wanna shed a tear. Smh Bulawayo today is such a far cry from what it used to be.
What a memory, this video macks me crazy bulawayo was beautiful in those days.
Bulawayo is only sleeping. It is in a journey, and nowhere near the end. Watch that space in time to come.
You dreaming. It's a mess.
I was trying to be positive, but you most likely right. Same as Durban - dying.

Of course, Rhodesia had been gone for only four years back then
It still is clean now
2018 and it still looks the same
The park at the fountain side , at trade god & the bank City Hall those places were still intact!
Bulawayo was clean in those days, what a video I like it you got my subscription
The roads markings were visible clean parks greenery
Bulawayo the City of Kings the City of our forefathers .Emzini wama Ndebele this city looked 10/10 during this era well the so called know it all ZANU Shit F destroyed it .
Amazing to think that the city is just a run-down version of what it must have been like in the 1970s. I can't imagine much has been built since then?
Massively rundown
so clean. no ques at cabs....
Hahahahaha
1987 you can still clearly see the infrastructure of Rhodesia there the Fountains the roads everything there . Still quite nice today But nothing like it was
Sad how nothing has changed for the better😔😔
