EDITOR — I have noticed with grave concern that there is a rise in cases of armed robberies in Zimbabwe. I am not sure where these robbers are getting their guns from but apparently, an ever-increasing number of individuals are getting hold of them. Guns are not a pleasant sight and due to the disarmament…
HARARE – The plight of workers at State broadcaster, the Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation (ZBC) has been dire for some time. And the situation seems to be getting worse. Their salaries are being paid in small advances of between $60 to $100, making it well nigh impossible for employees to provide for their families. To make…
HARARE – When President Robert Mugabe fingered former Zimbabwe Mining Development Corporation, ZMDC chairperson, Godwills Masimirembwa as having received a US$6 million bribe from a Ghananian investor last week, government authorities sprang into action and began investigating what has become known as the “diamonds scandal.” While there have been choruses of discontent from all sectors…

EDITOR — Both women and men suffer in silence at the hands of perpetrators of sexual harassment and some have gone to the extent of threatening violence to their victims if there are to report. I think it’s high time we should not tolerate sexual harassment. It affects us emotionally for a long time hence…
EDITOR — I am one of the people that love our environment and would help in all ways to see to it that our environment and our wildlife are conserved. I was disturbed by the recent Hwange cyanide poisoning incident which caused a serious ecological disaster. This disaster will be difficult to manage for a…
HARARE – The pegging of the Mbada Diamonds Cup gate charges at $1 is a welcome move that is likely to ensure massive attendances at various local stadia where matches will be played this weekend. It is our belief that the decline in fan turnout in recent years in the local game is mainly a…
HARARE – There is a sponsored cacophony that is rising against the tide of the true national sentiment — it is the paid noise that is saying Morgan Tsvangirai must go.
