EDITOR — I appeal to the minister of Primary and Secondary Education Lazarus Dokora to look into the welfare of teachers as a matter of urgency. This affects the teachers’ performance as well as other sectors of the economy. Teachers are not equipped for inclusive education and that’s where our greatest challenge is. Learning difficulties…
EDITOR — In response to an article published in your newspaper: “Pregnant women resists HIV screening”, on Tuesday January 7, 2014, we would like to express our appreciation for raising awareness of the importance of pregnant women being tested for HIV. However, we feel the headline is misleading and inaccurate. The majority of pregnant women…
EDITOR — Being an avid Daily News reader, I was awestruck by the Late Joshua Nkomo’s letters to the-then prime minister Robert Mugabe, which your paper ran late last year. Many aspects of that letter, ring very familiar to what we have been experiencing in this once-beautiful country of ours. To begin with, Nkomo adressed…
EDITOR — Where has the censorship board gone to in this country? Surely we need protection especially for our children against highly immoral and unethical products currently threatening to tear apart our social fabric as Zimbabweans and Africans. Day in, day out, DJs play offensive and substandard material both on radio and TV. It is…
EDITOR — I refer to your lead article of January 5, 2014 in which your paper quotes me extensively as a family representative, commenting on the marriage relationship of Morgan Tsvangirayi.

EDITOR — Teachers’ threats to go on strike nationwide as soon as schools open, in demand of $1 000 as a basic salary, is a move that should be condemned. It is shameful that when teachers really know the importance of education and the role it plays to the lives of both young and adults,…
EDITOR — I have lived in this country all my life but have never heard a single song from the Progressive Teachers of Zimbabwe secretary-general Raymond Majongwe. I was actually surprised that he has already produced more than 30 albums, including Which Way Africa?, The Daily News (Singing it like it is), Dr Hasting “Kamuzu”…
EDITOR — I read with interest your article entitled, TB Joshua Strikes again, but the so-called prophesy or prediction left me with more questions that answers. I believe that if someone gives a prophesy it should not leave people guessing and debating but give straight forward information that points at a particular direction. TB Joshua’s…
EDITOR — The move by Ambassadors, Hebson Makuvise and Jacqueline Zwambila, who for the past four years represented Zimbabwe in Germany and Australia respectively, to seek asylum status in the respective countries in which they represented Zimbabwe, should be condemned in the strongest of terms by their party, the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) led…
