EDITOR — The story in yesterday’s issue of your daily about the cost of living getting high left me with a bitter sweet feeling. We have always assumed that when Zanu PF gets back into power the cost of living is going to be high and some of us had expectations that some countries would…
EDITOR — Hats off to Temba Mliswa for insisting that the government buy MPs’ cars from local manufacturers so as to promote our own ailing industries. There is no doubt that if such an amount is injected in our industry, it would have a positive effect on its growth. However, I still question the need…
HARARE – The failing and ailing local industries are literally having King Pharaoh’s Army behind them and the Red Sea in front. May the Moses of our time please stand up! Since taking oath, Cabinet’s position on resuscitating local industry has been loud, clear and consistent. The expectant industrialists can’t wait for that action any…
HARARE – The Zanu PF government’s first 100 days in office are proving testing and hair-raising. This is driven by the grim picture that statistics are painting — hopes for an immediate economic turnaround are receding to the back burner. It is slowly but consistently becoming a tough journey for the government and the rest…
EDITOR — I would like to congratulate Zimbabwean designer Maita Marimo who recently took part in a fashion week in New York. I believe this is a good story for our girl children to know that the sky is the limit as long as one puts her mind to it. I am sure Maita did…

I believe the Local Government ministry is right in ordering the demolition of…
EDITOR — I am referring to Ndaba Nhuku’s article, “Kenneth Hagin’s advice to Emmanuel Makandiwa’s followers.” Nhuku was, of course, absolutely correct in his first article with his sentiments regarding the worship of man; any man! In Art Katz’s book, The Holocaust: Where was God? he says the following, “The nub or centre of all…
HARARE – In yet another confirmation that the Daily News is a newspaper for the people and that we always fight on the right side of history, authorities have now confirmed that some senior policemen are indeed involved in corrupt activities. This untenable state of affairs has forced commissioner-general Augustine Chihuri to take remedial action…
EDITOR — Traditionally, meals in Zimbabwe are prepared three times a day (breakfast, lunch and dinner) and it is my concern that the ministry of Energy and Power Development encourage the use of gas for cooking so as to save power. The ministry should create awareness on the use of gas as a way of…
EDITOR — The report in your Monday issue where Guspy Warrior and Shinsoman did not show up for the Zim Dancehall Fiesta at Gwanzura Stadium shows that the promoter is taking dancehall fans for fools. His explanation that the two artistes had shows in South Africa and he only learnt of it after printing posters…
