Time up for unplanned settlements

AS the country draws close to 2030, it is worth noting that the expected upper-middle income economy attainment by then will be hollow if we will still be having  some of the shambolic settlements that have sprouted in most urban centres controlled by opposition...

Zimbabwe is for Zimbabweans

OUR country is once again under serious attack from our usual enemies who have never stopped their puerile goals and objectives of extinguishing our compelling narrative. They just cannot seem to let go and let us be, because they are opponents of the development of black people. Our freedom and independence matters little to them...

By Dr Tafataona Mahoso TO begin with, there are many activists who believe that society no longer needs media policies in the age of digitisation, if it ever did. But reviewing the world’s recent experience of media   during the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic and...

Let’s teach our children

 THE drug scourge among our children, the wayward behaviour, a refusal to be responsible citizens are symptoms of far darker forces.  What could be the problem, what are our children telling us? I am afraid we are to blame, we are failing our children for at...

Western surrogates still active

LET us be wary of Western surrogates; they remain very much alive. It may appear that the non-governmental organisations (NGOs), who make up most of these surrogates, are quiet but they are very active.   As the general election draws nearer, the US and its allies...

A stalwart of the war is gone

 THE year has begun on a sad note following the death of Brigadier-General (Rtd) Epmarcus Walter Kanhanga who was duly declared a National Hero.  He was 73.  We have once again lost an illustrious son of the soil who practically dedicated his life to the liberation...
