EDITOR — The number of people dying in Zimbabwe’s roads is too much and government needs to act now to ensure that our roads are safe. What is surprising is why we have so many accidents yet there are lots of road blocks on our roads manned by officers supposed to ensure our safety. When…
EDITOR — Government should act on the issue of hospitals running out of drugs as a matter of urgency. I read with sadness your article entitled “Hospitals run out of drugs” and believe that if the government is concerned about its people, it should solve this problem without delay. It was disheartening to know that…
EDITOR — I read with interest that the Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (Zimra) will target the rich to find out where they got the money to build the mansions that are sprouting in Harare. This is a good idea, provided that this exercise starts from the top then down to the ordinary citizens of this country….
EDITOR — I believe the call by the Registrar-General Tobaiwa Mudede cannot go unchallenged. I believe that Mudede might have his reasons for calling for the ban on contraceptives, but this is not practical with the lifestyle that people are living at this day and age.

EDITOR – Harare’s streets have become so dirty that it boggles the mind how the city fathers still call it the Sunshine City. There is filth wherever you go, something we were not used to in the olden days. Is it that the city council does not have resources to fund refuse collection? Maybe there…
EDITOR — You should seriously consider getting tested for HIV if you have engaged in behaviour that puts you at risk for contracting the virus. High-risk behaviour includes having unprotected penetrative sex and using intravenous drugs with unsterilised needles. HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus. It’s similar to other viruses, such as those that cause…
EDITOR — After silencing renegades who label themselves as the Renewal Team, it is clear that Morgan Tsvangirai has won this battle and will in due course assume presidency. It has never been questionable that Morgan Tsvangirai enjoys popular support in Zimbabwe. The Renewal Team had portrayed Tsvangirai as someone who was illegitimately remaining at…
EDITOR — Fortunes to go for two consecutive years to play on the international stage were bluntly blown away by the so-called Warriors.
