? BREAKING NEWS | CBZ BANK MUREWA ROBBED ?

CBZ Bank in Murewa was reportedly targeted by suspected armed robbers in the early hours of this morning.

According to preliminary information, the suspects allegedly first went to the Branch Manager’s residence and forced him to accompany them to the bank and open the premises.

The suspects then reportedly gained entry by breaking windows and doors before damaging the bank’s ATM in an attempt to access cash.

However, the ATM reportedly contained no cash, and the suspects are therefore believed to have left without obtaining money from the machine.

? Police in Murewa are investigating the incident and are working with members of the community to gather information that could assist in identifying and apprehending the suspects.

Members of the public who may have information regarding the incident or the whereabouts of the suspects are urged to contact the police immediately and avoid confronting the suspects themselves.

After an accident, choosing a personal injury lawyer can feel overwhelming. You may be dealing with medical appointments, missed work, insurance calls, vehicle repairs, pain, and uncertainty about what happens next. A lawyer can help with claim strategy, evidence, deadlines, negotiations, and litigation, but not every attorney is the right fit for every case.

The first question is experience. Ask whether the attorney has handled cases similar to yours. A car accident case is different from a trucking accident, medical malpractice claim, workplace third-party claim, defective product case, or premises liability case. Similar case experience can help the lawyer understand evidence, expert witnesses, insurance tactics, and likely challenges.

Next, ask who will actually handle the file. In some firms, the lawyer you meet may not be the person managing daily communication. Paralegals, case managers, associates, and investigators may all be involved. That is normal, but you should know who your main contact will be and how often you will receive updates.

⚠️ This is a developing story. Further details will be published as they are confirmed.

Kelsea Tafirenyika’s bail application has been deferred to Wednesday for continuation, as dramatic claims about her lavish lifestyle take centre stage.

According to reports from the court proceedings, Tafirenyika claimed that $9.3 million in cash, a house and luxury vehicles were gifts from her husband, Collins Mnangagwa, whom she reportedly said has sufficient wealth to sustain their expensive lifestyle. The claims have intensified public interest in the case as questions continue to surround the ownership and source of the high-value assets. For now, Tafirenyika remains behind bars awaiting the continuation of her bail hearing on Wednesday. Will the court accept her explanation and grant her bail? All eyes are now on Wednesday’s proceedings.

Drug Rehab Treatment Centers: How to Choose the Right Program

Choosing a drug rehab treatment center is an important decision for individuals and families facing substance use challenges. The right program can provide structure, support, therapy, and recovery planning. However, not every treatment center is the same, so it is important to understand what to compare.

Drug rehab programs may include inpatient treatment, residential treatment, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient care, standard outpatient care, and aftercare support. The best level of care depends on the person’s substance use history, health needs, home environment, mental health concerns, and risk of relapse.

Inpatient or residential treatment usually provides 24-hour support in a structured setting. This may be helpful for people who need a stable environment away from triggers. Outpatient treatment allows people to live at home while attending scheduled therapy sessions. This may work better for people with strong support systems and less severe needs.

Medical detox may be needed for some substances. Detox should be supervised by qualified medical professionals because withdrawal can be uncomfortable and sometimes dangerous. Detox alone is usually not a complete treatment plan; it is often the first step before therapy and long-term recovery work.

A quality treatment center should offer individualized care. Addiction recovery is not one-size-fits-all. Treatment may include individual counseling, group therapy, family therapy, relapse prevention planning, medication-assisted treatment when appropriate, and mental health support.

JOHANNESBURG — Shocking and currently unverified claims are circulating about British-Zimbabwean murder suspect Ndodana Mkhanyisi “Mark” Tshuma, alleging that he died after deliberately making himself seriously ill while behind bars in South Africa.

According to the claims circulating online, Tshuma allegedly spent around two weeks mixing his own feces and urine before consuming the mixture, purportedly hoping to develop a severe infection.

Business liability  insurance plays a critical role in protecting companies from  risks and unexpected legal claims. Whether operating a small business or a large corporation, having proper insurance coverage can help safeguard assets, employees, and long-term operations.

Insurance

General liability insurance commonly covers property damage, customer injuries, and legal defense costs. Many businesses also invest in professional liability insurance and cybersecurity protection to reduce risks associated with digital operations and professional services. Industries such as construction, healthcare, and technology often require specialized insurance coverage due to increased exposure to liability claims.

Without proper protection, even a single lawsuit or accident can create major financial challenges for a company. Insurance policies help businesses continue operating while reducing the impact of costly legal disputes and unexpected incidents. Business owners should regularly review coverage limits and update policies as their operations grow.

However, South African authorities have not confirmed that Tshuma has died or that such an incident occurred, and credible reports currently available continue to list him as being in custody awaiting further court proceedings.

Tshuma was arrested in Johannesburg after fleeing Britain and is accused of murdering his wife, Nothabo Zandile Tshuma, 42, and their daughters Natalie, 15, and Nala, 5, who were found dead at the family’s home in Great Denham, Bedfordshire. British prosecutors subsequently authorised three murder charges against him. (The Guardian⁠)

The mother and her two daughters were laid to rest in Zimbabwe earlier this month while Tshuma remained detained in South Africa. (NovaNews⁠)

The extraordinary new claims have triggered intense discussion online, but until prison officials or other authorities issue a statement, the reported death and alleged circumstances surrounding it should be treated as unconfirmed.

DEVELOPING STORY — more details to follow as official information becomes available.

President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s daughter-in-law Kelsea Tadiwa Tafirenyika and her uncle, Isaac Arab Jessub, have each been granted US$1,000 bail by the High Court after successfully challenging a magistrate’s decision to deny them bail.

Justice Pisirayi Kwenda, sitting at the High Court in Harare on Thursday, allowed the appeal by consent and substituted the magistrate’s August 13 ruling with an order admitting both accused to bail. The court directed each accused to deposit US$1,000 with the clerk of the Harare Magistrates Court. They were also ordered to surrender their passports, report to police once every fortnight and remain at specified residential addresses until the criminal proceedings are finalised.

Tafirenyika must report to Borrowdale Police Station on Fridays, while Jessub is required to report to Hatfield Police Station

Divorce can be emotional, stressful, and financially difficult. If you own property, retirement accounts, a business, or shared debts, hiring a divorce attorney may help protect your financial future.

A good divorce lawyer can explain your rights and help you understand how property division works. In many divorces, couples must divide homes, bank accounts, vehicles, retirement funds, credit card debt, and other assets. Without proper guidance, one person may accept an unfair agreement.

An asset protection divorce strategy can help identify what is marital property and what may be separate property. Marital property usually includes assets gained during the marriage. Separate property may include assets owned before marriage, inheritance, or gifts, depending on state law.

A family law attorney can also help with hidden assets, business valuation, spousal support, child support, and custody-related financial issues.

Before agreeing to a divorce settlement, gather bank statements, tax returns, mortgage documents, retirement account statements, insurance policies, and debt records. Full financial disclosure is important.

Divorce is not only about ending a marriage. It is also about protecting your future. A divorce attorney can help you make informed decisions and avoid costly mistakes.

Hon Minister Tino Machakaire I respectfully want to raise an important concern with you.

As the Minister responsible for Youth, you have a responsibility to encourage young people to do positive things in their communities and contribute to the development of Zimbabwe. However, I am concerned about the kind of content some public figures are now sharing on social media, including sexually explicit or nude images.

If such content is being allowed or treated differently depending on who is posting it, how are young people supposed to understand what is acceptable? My concern is not about attacking anyone because of their sexual orientation. It is about consistency, equal treatment, and the standards that should apply to everyone.

I have previously raised concerns about Mama Vee and the type of content being presented as entertainment. I am asking for clarity because it sometimes appears that certain people may be treated differently from others. If Zimbabwean laws or policies apply to LGBTQIA+ people in a particular way, then the authorities should communicate clearly what those rules are and apply them consistently.

As someone from the LGBTQIA+ community who is currently outside Zimbabwe, this issue matters to me personally. Many people are left confused about what is legally permitted, what is not, and whether the rules are being applied equally.

Please, Honourable Minister, help address this matter openly and consistently. We need clear information so that young people and the wider public understand the standards that apply to social-media content in Zimbabwe.

A structured settlement provides payments over time instead of one full payment upfront. This is common in personal injury cases, lawsuits, and insurance settlements.

A lump sum settlement gives the recipient all the money at once. Both options have advantages and disadvantages

Thank you for taking the time to consider this concern. #justice #AfricaNews #madzibabamazhambe #ourzimbabwe #humanrights #Minister  Tafadzwa John Bells Hon Tatenda Mavetera Lebo Molax Somizi Anele Lgbtq Ace

On Wednesday 22 July at 14:44 pm, 10 days ago,  my Lord Husband King Atehene of the North was kidnapped. 

He was captured through the help of his brothers against his will, where he is confined in  solitary isolation. 

He is currently being held against his will at WinningWay Facility in Kumasi, a Christian Centre where exorcisms are being conducted on him, doing much harm to his body and soul. 

He has endured torture and bodily harm, and has been told the only people who can release him from the place are his brothers and he has to accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour and go back to SDA Church, and denounce YAHOWAH.  

The King has not spoken to his brothers since he returned to Ghana and has refused to have any communication with them. 

They believe he is demon possessed, and I am a witch who bewitched him, and the ultimatum he was given was to never speak about me, his wife,  his children Chaka and Chawela,  and to never mention Kubala Kingdom.  

My daughter Nakai said, "He has already come this far Mum, Nino always pulls through one way or another." 

I am connected to my Lord Husband in spirit.  

I have submitted the necessary documentation regarding how the King of Kubala's life is in immediate danger to the Supreme Court of Human Rights.  Thank you to Ghana Embassy for the help thus far. And thank you to all who are working day and night to ensure the King is released from this capture against his will.  

I am going to Ghana to save my Lord Husband,  Kubalans around the world continue to pray for the King. He will never put his faith in YAHOWAH down, or deny his wife and mother of his children.  

My Lord Husband will not die, he will live to declare the Kingdom of Kubala and the whole world shall see it. 

The Kingdom of Kubala can never be destroyed!

A Zimbabwean man has been sentenced to eight years behind bars in the UK for a rape committed in 2021. Emmanuel Jeche, 28, received the prison term after a jury unanimously found him guilty following an eight-day trial.

Jeche, who previously lived in Walnut Tree, Milton Keynes, was sentenced at Amersham Crown Court on Thursday, 2 July 2026.

According to Thames Valley Police, the offence happened in Wolverton, Milton Keynes, during the early hours of 12 June 2021.

Jeche was 23 years old at the time.

The victim reported the rape to police on 13 June 2021. An investigation was launched, and Jeche was arrested the following day.

During the investigation, Jeche admitted that sexual intercourse had taken place. However, he claimed it was consensual.

The case eventually went to trial at Amersham Crown Court. After an eight-day hearing, the jury unanimously convicted Jeche of one count of rape on 14 May 2026.

Investigating officer Police Staff Investigator David Brandon, of Milton Keynes CID, said the sentence could not erase the impact of the offence.

Brandon said:“No sentence can ever compensate a victim for the trauma caused by a rape offence and the long-term effects such crimes can have.”“However, I hope this sentence provides the victim with a sense of closure and allows her to continue rebuilding her life following this awful experience.”

Brandon also praised the victim’s conduct during the lengthy investigation and court proceedings.

He said:“I would like to commend the courage and determination shown by the victim throughout the investigation and court process.”

Brandon said sexual offences can have a serious and lasting impact on victims.

He said:“Rape and other sexual offences can have a devastating impact on victims. We will continue to investigate these offences thoroughly, support victims and pursue those responsible through thecourts.”

Jeche’s sentencing came more than five years after the offence in Wolverton.

The eight-year prison term closes the latest stage of a case that began when the victim reported the incident in June 2021 and continued through Jeche’s arrest, investigation and eventual jury trial.

A Zimbabwean man living in Missouri has been charged with multiple felonies after authorities say he stabbed his wife nearly 30 times before fleeing with their 6-year-old daughter.

Police said the incident happened on July 1 in unincorporated St. Louis County. Neighbors reportedly called 911 after hearing the woman screaming from a balcony that she was going to die. When officers arrived, they found her suffering from multiple stab wounds.

According to investigators, the victim told police that her husband, Munyaradzi Chiturumani, had threatened to kill their child before leaving with the girl. An AMBER Alert was issued, and authorities later found the child safe at a motel.

Police said two bloody knives were recovered from the home. Chiturumani is being held on a $500,000 cash-only bond. A motive has not yet been released.

Neighbors at a Missouri apartment complex heard startling words when a woman apparently screamed from her balcony that she was going to die before she was found stabbed dozens of times. 

Munyaradzi Chiturumani, 36, was wanted in an AMBER Alert announced by the Missouri State Highway Patrol after he allegedly stabbed his wife and took their 6-year-old daughter.

The defendant was found, arrested, and charged with first-degree domestic assault, armed criminal action, and two counts of endangering the welfare of a child creating substantial risk, according to area CBS affiliate KMOV. 

On Wednesday at about 5 p.m., neighbors called 911 "after hearing victim yelling out that she was going to die from her balcony," a probable cause statement obtained by the outlet states. Police responded to the area on Shadycreek Court in St. Louis County "to find [the] victim with approximately 30 stab wounds."

The woman was transported to a hospital and stated that "her husband stabbed her and he threatened to kill their 6-year-old child next and then left with the child," the court document goes on.

"Police later seized two bloody knives in the residence," the probable cause statement adds. Authorities said the woman was later listed in stable condition. Investigators spent hours searching for the father, identified as Chiturumani, and the couple's daughter. 

The girl was found safe in the city of St. Louis, police added. She was in "relatively good condition" and cared for by medical personnel.

"We are ecstatic that we've been able to locate her," the police department said. 

Chiturumani was located about 12 miles east in Caseyville, Illinois. He was arrested and jailed on a $500,000 cash-only bond.

Authorities noted that they had — in times past — been called to the apartment where the alleged attack occurred.

Bindura villagers have raised serious concerns after protesting against Chinese miners whom they accuse of mining too close to their homes and damaging their land.

The protest reportedly took place in Bindura, where frustrated residents said mining activities were now affecting their daily lives, homes, fields, and the environment around them.

According to villagers, the mining operations have moved too close to residential areas, creating fear that continued digging could damage houses, destroy farmland, and put families at risk.

Some residents were heard saying, “Hanzi ana Xing Jend ngavadzokere kumusha kwavo,” expressing anger and frustration over what they believe is a lack of respect for local communities and their land.

However, community leaders and authorities are being urged to handle the matter carefully and peacefully, focusing on accountability, land protection, and proper mining regulations rather than conflict.

Villagers Say Their Land Is Being Destroyed

Residents claim the mining activities have caused visible damage to the land, with concerns over open pits, soil disturbance, dust, noise, and possible environmental harm.

Many villagers depend on the land for farming, grazing, and family survival. They say mining near homes does not only disturb their peace but also threatens their future.

One major concern is that if the mining continues without proper control, some families may be forced to leave areas they have lived in for years.

Mining Near Homes Raises Safety Questions

Mining close to residential areas can create serious risks if not properly monitored. Villagers are worried about:

Cracks developing near homes Dust affecting children and elderly people Noise disturbing the community Land becoming unsafe for farming Water sources being affected Open pits becoming dangerous

The villagers are now calling for local authorities, environmental officials, and mining regulators to visit the area and investigate the complaints.

Community Calls for Action

The protest shows growing frustration among rural communities who feel they are often left out when mining companies come into their areas.

Residents say they are not against development, but they want mining companies to respect people’s homes, protect the environment, and follow the law.

They are demanding answers on whether the miners have proper permits, whether environmental assessments were done, and whether the community was consulted before operations began.

Authorities Urged to Intervene

Local leaders and government officials are now being urged to step in before the situation gets worse.

Villagers want the matter resolved peacefully, but they also want their concerns taken seriously.

The key questions now are:

Are the miners operating legally? How close are they allowed to mine near homes? Was the community properly consulted? Will damaged land be restored? Who will protect villagers if homes or farms are affected?

A Bigger Issue Across Zimbabwe

The Bindura protest highlights a wider issue in Zimbabwe, where communities in mining areas often complain about land damage, pollution, and lack of consultation.

Mining can bring jobs and investment, but when communities feel ignored, it creates anger and mistrust.

For development to benefit everyone, mining companies must operate responsibly, respect local people, and repair any damage caused by their operations.

Conclusion

The protest in Bindura is more than just anger against miners. It is a cry from villagers who say their land, homes, and livelihoods are under threat.

Authorities now need to investigate the situation, protect the community, and make sure mining activities follow proper environmental and safety standards.

Until then, villagers say they will continue demanding respect, justice, and protection for their land.

A fire broke out at a building located within the popular Noma Complex in Kadoma, causing panic among business owners, shoppers, and passersby in the area. The incident drew immediate attention as thick smoke billowed from the affected structure, prompting people nearby to take swift action to prevent further losses.

Witnesses at the scene reported that flames were visible from parts of the building, raising concerns that nearby vehicles and businesses could also be affected if the fire spread. Fortunately, community members quickly stepped in to assist before emergency responders arrived.

Heroic Effort Saves Honda Fit from Potential Destruction

One of the most remarkable moments during the incident was the rescue of a Honda Fit parked dangerously close to the burning building. Fearing that the vehicle could catch fire or suffer significant heat damage, a group of passersby worked together to physically lift and move the car away from the danger zone.

Videos and photos circulating on social media captured the dramatic scene as several individuals coordinated their efforts to safely evacuate the vehicle. Their quick thinking and teamwork likely prevented thousands of dollars in potential property damage.

The Honda Fit was successfully moved to a safe location, avoiding any direct impact from the fire.

No Injuries Reported

Authorities and eyewitnesses confirmed that no injuries were reported during the incident. Occupants of nearby businesses and members of the public were able to evacuate the area safely.

The absence of injuries has been welcomed by the Kadoma community, especially considering the potential risks associated with commercial building fires, including smoke inhalation, structural collapse, and the rapid spread of flames to neighboring properties.

Emergency Response and Fire Safety Concerns

Emergency responders were called to the scene to contain the blaze and prevent it from spreading further throughout the complex. The exact cause of the fire has not yet been officially confirmed, and investigations are expected to determine what triggered the incident.

Fire safety experts frequently stress the importance of regular building inspections, functioning fire extinguishers, emergency evacuation plans, and proper electrical maintenance in commercial properties. Such measures can significantly reduce the risk of devastating fires and protect both lives and property.

Community Spirit Shines During Crisis

The incident highlighted the strength of community spirit in Kadoma. Rather than fleeing the scene, several bystanders immediately worked together to protect property and assist those affected.

Acts of bravery and cooperation during emergencies often make a critical difference in reducing losses and ensuring public safety. The successful rescue of the Honda Fit has already become a talking point across social media platforms, with many praising the individuals involved for their quick response.

Growing Importance of Commercial Property Insurance

Events such as the Noma Complex fire serve as a reminder of the importance of commercial property insurance for business owners. Fire-related incidents can result in significant financial losses due to property damage, business interruption, and equipment replacement costs.

Insurance coverage can help businesses recover more quickly after unexpected disasters by covering repairs, rebuilding costs, and lost revenue during periods of closure.

Business owners are encouraged to regularly review their insurance policies to ensure they have adequate protection against fire and other emergencies.

Investigation Continues

As authorities continue investigating the cause of the fire, residents and business operators in Kadoma will be hoping for answers and reassurance that similar incidents can be prevented in the future.

For now, the community remains grateful that no lives were lost and that the quick actions of ordinary citizens helped prevent additional damage during a potentially dangerous situation.

Conclusion

The fire at Noma Complex in Kadoma serves as both a warning and an inspiration. While the incident underscores the risks associated with commercial property fires, it also showcases the power of community action. Thanks to the swift response of passersby, a nearby Honda Fit was safely evacuated, no injuries were reported, and a potentially worse situation was avoided.

The High Court has dismissed an application by Marry Mubaiwa seeking a permanent stay of criminal proceedings in her attempted murder case involving Vice-President Constantino Chiwenga.

Justice Jacob Manzunzu ruled against Mubaiwa after finding no merit in the arguments she raised in her bid to overturn an earlier ruling by Harare regional magistrate Feresi Chakanyuka.

Mubaiwa had cited Chakanyuka and the Prosecutor-General as respondents in the matter

According to NewsDay, Justice Manzunzu said the lower court had properly handled the matter and conducted the necessary inquiry before dismissing Mubaiwa’s application.

“The purpose of investigation is to get the truth of the matter,” said Justice Manzunzu.

He explained that a court may choose either a formal or informal inquiry when determining whether there has been unreasonable delay in criminal proceedings.

According to the judge, what mattered most was whether the court had adequately considered the factors outlined under Section 167A of the Criminal Procedure and Evidence Act.

“There is nothing wrong where the court feels factors in section 167A(2) cannot be realised without viva voce evidence, to call for such evidence,” he said.

Justice Manzunzu said the record already contained the remand history of the case, making a formal inquiry unnecessary.

In her application for review, Mubaiwa argued that Chakanyuka committed a gross irregularity by dismissing the permanent stay application without conducting what she described as a mandatory investigation under the law.

She also challenged the magistrate’s finding that only delays mainly attributable to the State could justify a permanent stay of prosecution.

However, the High Court ultimately upheld the magistrate’s ruling, clearing the way for the criminal proceedings to continue.Mubaiwa was arrested on December 14, 2019, and is facing attempted murder allegations involving her former husband, Vice-President Chiwenga.

In November 2024, she filed an application seeking a permanent stay of prosecution under Section 167A of the Criminal Procedure and Evidence Act, arguing that there had been unreasonable delays in concluding the criminal case.

The National Prosecuting Authority opposed the application.

On November 22, 2024, magistrate Chakanyuka dismissed the request, ruling that the delays were not caused by the State.

Following that decision, Mubaiwa approached the High Court seeking a review under provisions of the High Court Act and High Court Rules.

Zimbabwean UFC fighter Themba Gorimbo has officially announced his retirement from mixed martial arts, bringing an emotional end to a 16-year fighting career that inspired fans across Africa and around the world.

The 35-year-old fighter shared a heartfelt statement revealing that he is walking away from MMA after realizing his dream of becoming a UFC champion would not be fulfilled as an athlete.

Themba Gorimbo Retires From MMA

In an emotional message to fans, Gorimbo thanked the UFC, his supporters, coaches, teammates, and family for standing by him throughout his journey in combat sports.

“I dared to be someone and something and failed,” Gorimbo wrote. “I gave all I can in the sport and I am walking away from the sport.”

The Zimbabwean star admitted that his ultimate goal was always to become a UFC champion. After reflecting on his recent performances, he decided it was time to close this chapter of his life.

“My dream was to be a UFC champion and if I cannot be that, I am going to walk away from the sport,” he explained.

Emotional Farewell To The UFC

Gorimbo revealed that after his most recent fight, he immediately felt that it could be the final time he stepped into the cage as a professional fighter.

The veteran fighter said he made a conscious effort to enjoy every moment during fight week because something inside him suggested the end was near.

“Honestly I feel some sort of relief,” he said. “Going into my last fight I made sure I lived life to the fullest during fight week because something said I should because it could be the last time.”

Three days after the fight, Gorimbo emailed UFC matchmaker Sean Shelby to thank him for giving him the opportunity to compete in the world’s biggest MMA promotion.

“Sean Shelby got me into the UFC and I am grateful that one of my dreams got fulfilled,” he said.

Themba Gorimbo Thanks Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson

Gorimbo also took time to thank Hollywood superstar Dwayne Johnson, popularly known as The Rock, for helping change his life.

The UFC fighter’s inspirational story previously captured global attention after Johnson surprised him with support that helped him pursue his American dream.

“To my man The Rock and team I thank you for everything,” Gorimbo wrote. “American dream wouldn’t have happened without you guys.”

Family Comes First

The retired MMA fighter says his main focus moving forward will now be his family, especially his daughters.

In one of the most touching parts of his statement, Gorimbo referred to his daughters as his “current bosses” and revealed that tennis will now become a major focus in their lives.

“Now let’s focus on tennis for my daughters,” he said.

Could Themba Gorimbo Return To MMA?

Although Gorimbo is retiring as an active athlete, he hinted that fans may still see him involved in combat sports in the future.

The former UFC fighter revealed he could eventually return as a coach or manager to help guide the next generation of fighters.

“I failed at that as an athlete myself but it’s not over,” he wrote. “I will be back as a Coach / Manager.”

Fans React To Gorimbo’s Retirement

Fans across social media reacted emotionally to the announcement, praising Gorimbo for his honesty, perseverance, and inspiring journey from Zimbabwe to the UFC stage.

Many supporters described him as proof that determination and faith can overcome impossible odds.

“FYI: I wasn’t even supposed to be here but I got here,” Gorimbo said. “God is by my side always. He is the author to my forever inspiring story.”

While his fighting career may be over, many fans believe Themba Gorimbo’s influence in African MMA is only beginning.

Controversial Zimbabwean businessman Wicknell Chivayo has once again set social media on fire after reports claimed he allegedly gifted Jah Prayzah’s girlfriend a staggering US$250,000 cash present during an extravagant birthday celebration.

Social Media Explodes

According to viral reports circulating online, Chivayo allegedly stunned guests after presenting the massive cash gift during a glamorous celebration attended by celebrities, socialites and influential personalities.

Videos and photos from the event reportedly showed luxury décor, expensive drinks and high-profile guests enjoying the lavish atmosphere. However, it was the alleged US$250,000 cash gift that immediately grabbed public attention.

Social media users flooded comment sections with reactions, with some praising Chivayo’s generosity while others questioned the source of such extravagant wealth.

“Under the programme, taxpayers who make a full and truthful disclosure will have penalties waived in full, although interest on outstanding amounts will still apply.”Importantly, such disclosures will not automatically trigger audits or criminal proceedings.”

The window offers relief for those who come forward early. However, it is time-bound. Once it closes, enforcement will escalate.

“After the deadline, anyone caught dodging tax will face the full force of the law, including penalties and possible prosecution.”

The programme applies broadly. It covers individuals and businesses across sectors, including informal traders and transport operators. Crucially, it also targets online earners whose income has often gone undeclared

H-Metro repports that the spotlight intensified after Madam Boss publicly disclosed her Facebook earnings. She said she can make more than US$20,000 (approximately R370,000) in a strong month.

That revelation has drawn attention to the scale of money circulating in Zimbabwe’s digital content space.

H-Metro reports that several prominent figures — including Mai TT, DJ Towers, Ritz and Mama Vee — are among those expected to align their earnings with tax requirements.

ZIMRA indicated that income from digital platforms is now a key focus area.Income earned from online platforms such as Facebook and YouTube is firmly on our radar.”

Authorities also signalled that visible wealth could trigger checks.

“Cases where individuals possess significant assets or property developments inconsistent with declared income will be examined.”

The message is clear. Digital income is no longer invisible.

The crackdown comes alongside new tax measures introduced earlier this year. The Government confirmed that the Digital Services Withholding Tax (DSWT), introduced under Finance Act No. 7 of 2025, took effect on 1 January 2026.Finance Minister Professor Mthuli Ncube explained that the tax applies to payments made to non-resident suppliers for services such as streaming, online advertising and e-hailing.

While this tax targets cross-border services, it forms part of a broader push to capture revenue from the digital economy.

For local creators, the requirement is straightforward. Register with ZIMRA. Declare all income. Settle any outstanding tax obligations.

Those who comply within the window may avoid penalties. Those who do not risk financial and legal consequences once the deadline passes.

As digital earnings grow, so too does scrutiny. And with the deadline approaching, the pressure is mounting across Zimbabwe’s influencer spac

I’d like to put the spotlight on a certain college in Harare called Harare Institute of Public Health (HIPH), to be specific.

A tragic incident occurred a week ago, were a female student enrolled at this public college committed suicid€ due to a balance due on her tuition fees.

I have a child who enrolled at the same college in February. Prior to enrollment the college tells you all the requirements and tuition payment terms, etc. If you can't pay the whole tuition at once, you can pay 60% upon enrollment (February), then 20% end March and the final 20% end April. They further assure you that no student will be turned away due to outstanding tuition fees (I was told this in person upon enrolling my child), not knowing that it's just a tactic to get you to enrol with them!

Unfortunately the deceas€d had a 20% balance for the semester due by April. On the 15th of April she and a large number of students were denied access and turned away due to balances. This was on the 15th, meanwhile they have said fees are to be paid by the end of the month.

It seems at that time the parents/guardians could not raise the amount required for her to return to college. Thus leading to the tragic incident where the student decided to €nd her lif€. She was buri€d over the weekend.

This could have been avoided. What are the priorities of this college? Yes, we know that most of these colleges are money-making ventures, but at whose expense? It’s unfortunate that this particular college seems to be more interested in demanding money at the expense of quality education, and charging exorbitant amounts for poor quality student materials.

Such a young promising life cut short because of a money-centered institution!

The identities of the deceased have not yet been released, pending notification of their next of kin.

.I am a married father of three living with a visual impairment, and my wife has a physical disability. We survive through vending and struggle to make ends meet.

In August 2022, we were featured on a TV programme about people living with disabilities on ZBC TV. In December 2022, Baker’s Inn approached us and said they wanted to help us. They promised us a container shop and a chance to distribute their bread so we could earn a living. The container was delivered in December 2022, and we were told we would earn a commission of 5 cents per loaf. In April 2023, they also gave us a scooter to help with deliveries.

However, there was no clear written or signed agreement given to us for this arrangement. From the beginning, we were expected to cover all the costs ourselves, including fuel, paying a driver, and securing the container, using only this small commission. We even had to pay a driver about US$300 while working towards daily targets.

Despite working hard, the money we received did not match our sales. For example, in December 2023, after selling 17,060 loaves in about 18 days, we were paid only US$24.30 instead of about US$853 based on the agreed commission.

Around December 2023, the company also started charging us US$115 per month for the container, even though it had been presented as support. Soon after, we were told that our account had a debt of over US$9,000. We were not clearly shown how this debt came about.

In early 2024, we requested account statements and noticed errors, including duplicate charges and an unexplained opening balance of US$2,858.92. After disputing this, the amount was reduced to about US$5,568.46, but there were still figures we could not verify. The amount we could not account for was around US$2,400.

Despite raising these concerns, Baker’s Inn stopped engaging with us and placed our account on hold, preventing us from continuing with the business.

In 2026, after about three years, the company came and took back the container without any clear explanation. All the items that had been presented as help were taken back, and no legal ownership had ever been given to us.

Because of this situation, we lost our source of income. We used our own resources trying to grow the business, and now we are left with nothing. Our family is struggling, and our child is no longer able to attend school.

We feel that we were used for publicity rather than genuinely helped. We were given hope in December 2022, but by 2026, we were left worse off than before. We are asking for help and for Baker’s Inn to respond and explain what happened.

Yesterday at around 10:00 PM, I was driving an inDrive customer to Borrowdale. I used the road that passes by State House and the Harare Golf Club. Just after the durawall of State House, near the agricultural buildings, there was a single Presidential Guard soldier.

He stopped a Toyota Aqua and made it pull over to the side of the road, but I did not stop because I did not realise I was being signalled. On my way back, the same soldier stopped me. He asked for my driver’s licence and car keys, which I handed over.

He then asked where I was coming from, and I explained that I was coming from Borrowdale, as I was working as an inDrive driver. He said he wanted to deal with me for not stopping when I was allegedly signalled by officers near the Botanical Gardens. I told him that I did not see anyone signalling me to stop.

He then said he was arresting me and that he would deal with me. When he attempted to put me in handcuffs, I refused. At that point, he cocked his gun and pointed it at me, saying, “Do you think I am playing? Do something.”

Out of fear for my safety, I gave him the $20 I had. He also appeared to be intoxicated.I met the same soldier yesterday 

He wanted to exort me $40 for the exact same reason ini ndakati kana muchida kuuraya officer itai zvamunoda asi ini handisi kubvuma mhosva iyi and macuffs handisi kuzoiswa ndikamira pakati peroad for him to shoot and he was drunk to the core

A bold and controversial idea is trending across Zimbabwe social media: a symbolic “swap” between opposition leader Nelson Chamisa and South African political figure Julius Malema.

While not a real political proposal, the “swap” conversation is being used by some citizens to express frustration with current opposition leadership and a growing desire for a more assertive and confrontational political approach.

Supporters of the idea say they are looking for: ? Stronger opposition presence ? More direct engagement with national issues ? Leadership that can challenge the system more aggressively

Julius Malema, known in South Africa for his outspoken and bold political style, has become a reference point in these discussions. Many online users describe his approach as fearless and direct, qualities they believe are needed in Zimbabwe’s political landscape.

On the other hand, Nelson Chamisa continues to maintain a significant support base, with many backing his strategy and vision for change. However, the rise of alternative opinions highlights a clear divide among Zimbabweans about what kind of leadership is needed going forward.

Political analysts say the “swap” narrative is less about actual policy and more about public frustration and a call for change. They emphasize that leadership transitions can only happen through democratic and constitutional processes, not symbolic exchanges.

What this trending conversation reveals is simple: ?? Zimbabweans are becoming more vocal ? Expectations for opposition leadership are rising ⚖️ The demand for impactful change is growing louder

As the debate continues to gain traction online, it reflects a broader national conversation about the future of leadership, accountability, and governance in Zimbabwe.

​A video circulating on Zimcelebz and other social media platforms has sparked a wave of debate after a woman was filmed being unceremoniously kicked out of a white McLaren supercar.

​The clip, which has quickly gone viral, captures a tense moment where the occupants of the high-end vehicle are seen demanding that the woman leave the car immediately. The caption overlaying the video reads: "Uri Junky buda muno mu McLaren mangu fast" (You’re a junkie, get out of my McLaren fast), punctuated by the "eyes" emoji.

​In the footage, the white McLaren is seen with its signature dihedral doors open as onlookers watch the drama unfold. The tone of the exchange is sharp, with the driver or owner of the vehicle making it clear that the woman was no longer welcome inside.

​While the exact location and the identities of those involved remain unconfirmed, the video has triggered intense reactions across Facebook and Instagram, with many questioning the backstory that led to such a public confrontation.

​As with most viral "Zim Celeb" moments, the comment sections are split. The reactions generally fall into three camps:

​This incident highlights the growing tension within the "soft life" culture often showcased on Zimbabwean social media. The allure of luxury cars and high-end lifestyles often comes with "fine print," and as this video suggests, the exit from that lifestyle can be just as public as the entry.

​Neither the woman in the video nor the owners of the McLaren have issued an official statement regarding the clash. However, as the video continues to rack up thousands of views, the phrase "Buda muno mu McLaren mangu" is already on its way to becoming the latest viral soundbite.

Endai kupage kwa tafadzwa re matrix munoona mu comment section yaramba zvisina basa3,2k comments dzerutuko chete nhasi adenha magohe always talks and is open about which team he supports , nyaya dzematrix distracted peopleYou myt be under pressure from somwhere but this myt impact your hustleSo if you were running a poll based on your comment section what do you think would be the result?welcome the opportunity to make a submission on the Constitution of Zimbabwe Amendment (No. 3) Bill.

The Constitution of Zimbabwe (2013) is a product of a long and painful historical struggle, reflecting the aspirations of Zimbabweans for democratic governance, equality, and self-determination. It is not merely a legal instrument but a social contract grounded in the sacrifices of the liberation struggle.

Any proposed amendment must therefore be approached with caution, ensuring that both the letter and spirit of the Constitution as well as the historical values underpinning it are preserved.

Zimbabwe’s constitutional democracy is rooted in the rejection of the Unilateral Declaration of Independence (1965) by the government of Ian Smith, which denied the majority population political participation.

The liberation struggle was fought, at great human cost, to establish universal suffrage, political equality, and the principle of 'one person, one vote.'

Many Zimbabweans lost their lives in pursuit of a system where leaders derive legitimacy directly from the people.

A move away from direct election risks undermining the very democratic gains for which the liberation struggle was fought.

The 2013 Constitution establishes direct election of the President, universal adult suffrage, and accountability of leadership to citizens.

Changing this framework would alter the source of executive legitimacy, weaken direct democratic participation, and fundamentally reshape Zimbabwe’s constitutional architecture.

Such a change should require approval by referendum in line with Section 328.

Section 328(7) provides that amendments extending the length of time a person may hold office as President must not benefit the incumbent.

Even where amendments are framed procedurally, their practical effect must be scrutinised.

If the effect is to extend tenure, delay elections, or indirectly benefit a sitting office holder, this risks violating both the letter and intent of the Constitution.

The Constitution recognises the important role of traditional leaders (chiefs) as custodians of culture, arbiters of disputes, and leaders within rural communities.

Allowing or encouraging traditional leaders to participate in partisan politics risks undermining their neutrality, eroding community trust, and compromising their role as fair and impartial decision-makers.

This is comparable to the judiciary entering partisan politics, which would undermine public confidence in justice systems.

Traditional leaders must remain non-partisan custodians of customary law and community cohesion.

The Zimbabwe Gender Commission plays a critical role in promoting gender equality, addressing discrimination, and advancing women’s rights.

This is particularly important in a society shaped by patriarchal norms where women face structural inequalities.

Despite limited financial resources, the Commission contributes to awareness, policy development, and gender justice.

Reforms should strengthen and adequately resource such institutions.

The Constitution is built upon popular sovereignty, accountability, and safeguards against concentration of power.

Parliament cannot substitute the direct will of the people in matters that fundamentally alter democratic structure.

The Constitution of Zimbabwe represents the outcome of a liberation struggle, the aspirations of its people, and a commitment to democratic governance.

Amendments must protect, not dilute, democratic participation.

Historical principles such as 'one person, one vote' must remain central.

Institutions promoting equality and justice must be strengthened.

Traditional leadership must remain politically neutral.

1. Any amendment affecting presidential election or tenure be subjected to a national referendum.

2. Section 328 protections be strictly upheld to prevent incumbent benefit.

3. The role of traditional leaders remain non-partisan.

4. Constitutional commissions be strengthened and resourced

Mentally Challenged Man Dies After Consuming Poisoned PorridgeBulawayo provincial police spokesperson Nomalanga Msebele said the case highlights the serious dangers of keeping toxic substances in easily accessible places at home.

“The now-deceased, identified as Kindness Paradza, who was reportedly mentally unwell, put an unknown pesticide in a pot of porridge he was preparing for his family,” she said.

Msebele explained that Paradza’s wife quickly disposed of the porridge to prevent the family from consuming it, an action that reportedly led to a confrontation and prompted relatives to call the police for assistance.

“While arrangements were being made to take him for medical help, it was discovered that he had already consumed some of the poisoned porridge,” she said.Police in Bulawayo have urged residents to safely store pesticides and other hazardous household chemicals following a tragic incident that claimed the life of a 35-year-old man in Mpopoma on 22 March 2026.The police spokesperson also cited other troubling incidents to underscore the risks associated with unsafe storage of chemicals.

“Chemicals must never be left in places where they can be easily accessed or mistaken for food or drink,” Msebele warned.

She referred to a case where a child drank cattle dip that had been stored in a soft drink bottle, mistaking it for a beverage, as well as another incident in which a student reportedly died after consuming an insecticide following disappointing O-Level examination results.

Authorities are now urging members of the public to ensure that all hazardous substances are properly labelled and kept out of reach, particularly in households with children or vulnerable individuals.An ambulance was immediately called, but Paradza was pronounced dead upon arrival at the hospital.”

May his soul rest easy

A good man he waszvinorwadza vaNgoma vashaya

​The Zimbabwean social media landscape and local entertainment community have been plunged into mourning following the sudden passing of the popular personality affectionately known as Sekuru Ngoma.

​News of his departure began circulating late Monday, triggering a massive wave of "RIP" tributes across Facebook, TikTok, and WhatsApp groups. For many, Sekuru Ngoma was more than just a digital figure; he was a source of daily laughter and a vibrant representative of Zimbabwean street culture and humor.

​The common refrain echoing through the tributes is the somber question: "Tichaseka nani?" (Who will we laugh with now?). Sekuru Ngoma’s rise to

prominence was fueled by his unique ability to blend traditional wisdom with sharp, contemporary wit. Whether through his viral skits, social commentary, or his distinctive "Ngoma" (drum) persona, he carved out a niche that resonated with Zimbabweans both at home and in the diaspora.

HARARE — Harare lawyer Concellia Maheya has been convicted of theft of trust property and remanded in custody pending her pre-sentencing hearing, following a fraudulent US$30,000 real estate transaction.

Maheya, formerly employed by Maseko Law Chambers, was found guilty on Friday by Harare magistrate Lisa Mutendereki following a full trial. Prosecutors proved that she accepted US$30,000 in trust from a buyer using forged title deeds, despite the property having been sold to a different party three years earlier.

According to state pros

ecutor Takudzwa Jambawo, the incident began in October 2021 when the complainant, Mercy Kabvara, sought to purchase property. An estate agent, Templeton P. Chadyiwa, directed Kabvara to a 1,265-square-meter stand in Bluffhill Township and subsequently introduced her to Maheya.

Maheya claimed to be acting on behalf of the property's purported owner, Zvatinowona Tsitsi Kujeke. The court heard that Maheya presented a Deed of Transfer—which the State later proved was fake—and signed an agreement of sale on behalf of the seller on Oct. 29, 2021.

Kabvara handed over US$30,000 in cash for Maheya to hold in trust pending the lawful transfer of ownership, alongside an additional US$500 for conveyancing fees.

When Maheya failed to produce the title deeds in the following weeks, Kabvara visited the Deeds Office to verify the documents. Officials informed her that the deed she had been shown was forged and that the office had confiscated the fraudulent paperwork to destroy it.

Further investigations through the City of Harare revealed the Bluffhill stand had actually been sold by Kujeke to a man named Collen Kapende in June 2018.

In December 2022, Maheya attempted to compensate Kabvara by offering her a house in Hatfield Estate. However, the agreement collapsed because the property was under the administration of the Master of the High Court, and Maheya lacked the legal consent required under the Administration of Estates Act to sell it.

Following the failed compensation attempt, Maheya signed an acknowledgment of debt for the US$30,000 on Feb. 23, 2023.

Maheya is scheduled to return to court on April 7 for sentencing. - Zimbo LIVE Harare

Tensions are escalating in South Africa following the corronation of the Igbo king ,An anti-illegal migration organization, March and March, along with other groups, brought traffic in KuGompo City South Africa to a complete standstill as they protested the coronation of a Nigerian king. The backlash followed the spread of viral videos and photos on social media showing Chief Solomon Ogbonna Eziko

being crowned as the “Igwe Ndigbo” of KuGompo City.South Africa has a documented history of sporadic "xenophobic" or "afrophobic" violence, often triggered by localized disputes between different migrant communities or between locals and foreign nationals. These incidents frequently center on competition for resources, retail dominance in townships, or personal grievances that quickly escalate into communal clashes.

​The involvement of the minibus taxi—a vital but often volatile sector of South African transport—suggests that the unrest may be impacting local infrastructure and daily commutes.

​Law enforcement agencies have not yet released a formal statement confirming the specific cause of the fires or the extent of the casualties. Community leaders from both the Nigerian and Somali diasporas in South Africa often work alongside local police to de-escalate such situations, but the visual evidence suggests a high level of volatility in the affected area.

​Note: Information appearing on social media during active unrest can be inflammatory. Local residents are advised to avoid areas where smoke or gatherings are visible and to monitor official news channels for safety updates.

​JOHANNESBURG — Reports are surfacing of escalating communal tensions in parts of South Africa following an alleged incident involving a prominent member of the Igbo community and individuals of Somali descent. While official details remain sparse, social media updates have begun circulating images of unrest, including burning vehicles and public disturbances.

HIV Rapist Jailed in Absence as International Manhunt Launched

A convicted rapist who knowingly infected a woman with HIV fled the UK before sentencing and is believed to have escaped to Zimbabwe, triggering an international manhunt. Brian Tatenda Shayanowako, 54, formerly of Lower Adelaide Street in Northampton, was sentenced to 12 years in prison in his absence after being found guilty at Aylesbury Crown Court.

Shayanowako was convicted of rape and had also pleaded guilty to recklessly inflicting grievous bodily harm, after it was established that he had unprotected sex with the victim over several years while knowingly carrying HIV. The offences took place between 2006 and 2010, with the court hearing that he failed to disclose his condition, ultimately resulting in the victim becoming infected.

The case also revealed a history of violence. In 2002, while living in Slough, Shayanowako poured boiling water over the same woman, causing serious burns to her chest and abdomen. The following year, in 2003, he raped her. Despite these earlier incidents, the prolonged abuse continued for years, culminating in the transmission of HIV.

Shayanowako arrived in the UK in 2001 and had lived in several locations including Slough, Milton Keynes and Northampton. By the time he was due to be sentenced in August 2014, he had already absconded, avoiding custody entirely. As a result, the court proceeded in his absence, handing down a 12-year sentence.

Following the conviction, Thames Valley Police issued a warrant for his arrest and began efforts to locate him. Investigators later confirmed that intelligence suggested he had fled to Zimbabwe, prompting authorities to expand their search internationally and liaise with overseas law enforcement agencies.

Detective Constable Charlotte McDonald, who led the investigation, made clear that the case was not about criminalising individuals living with HIV, but about the deliberate and reckless transmission of the virus. She emphasised that Shayanowako’s actions involved knowingly putting another person at serious risk, resulting in life-changing consequences for the victim.

The case highlights the challenges faced by law enforcement when offenders flee the country before sentencing, particularly in cases involving serious violent and sexual offences. It also underscores the importance of international cooperation in tracking and apprehending fugitives.

Police continue to appeal for information regarding Shayanowako’s whereabouts, with efforts ongoing to locate and return him to the UK to serve his sentence. For the victim, the conviction represents a measure of justice, but the absence of the offender means the case remains unresolved in practical terms.

This case raises critical questions about how offenders are able to evade sentencing and the systems in place to prevent such escapes. It also brings attention to the severe and lasting impact of offences involving both violence and the transmission of serious illness.

Shayanowako remains wanted, and authorities have made clear that efforts to locate him will continue until he is brought back to face the full consequences of his crimes.

Bellarmine Chatunga Mugabe will spend three more weeks behind bars after plea negotiations between the State and the defence failed, with the magistrate warning that the latest postponement could be the last. The matter, involving Mugabe and his co-accused Tobias Matonhodze, has now been postponed to 17 April 2026 for further

investigations after prosecutors indicated they were not satisfied with what the defence had offered.The development comes after earlier reports on 17 March 2026 indicated that both parties were “98 percent” close to reaching a plea agreement, raising expectations that the matter would be resolved quickly. However, those negotiations appear to have stalled, resulting in further delays and continued detention for the accused.

According to SABC journalist Chriselda Zozi Lewis, the negotiations broke down during court proceedings.

“There has been NO plea agreement reached between the state and defense in the case involving Bellarmine Mugabe and Tobias Matonhodze. It seems the state is not happy with what the defense is putting on the table. The matter has been postponed to 17 April for further investigations.”

The post indicated that prosecutors were not prepared to accept the defence proposal, leading to the postponement.

The latest development marks a shift from the position reported just days earlier. On 17 March 2026, proceedings at the Alexandra Magistrates Court in Johannesburg suggested that negotiations were nearing completion.

During those proceedings, defence lawyer Sinenhlanhla Mnguni indicated that discussions were progressing well.

We placed on record what transpired in negotiations between the State and the defence. The discussions are at an advanced stage.”

Mnguni also expressed optimism that the matter would be resolved quickly.

“We are hopeful that we will be able to conclude the plea and finalise the matter then.”

However, despite the optimism, negotiations failed to produce a final agreement by 24 March 2026, resulting in the additional postponement.

Mugabe and Matonhodze were arrested on 19 February 2026 in Johannesburg following a shooting incident involving a 23-year-old employee at Mugabe’s residence. Authorities said the victim was left in a critical condition but is expected to recover.

Tasara Hungwe, the ZANU PF MP for Mberengwa East, is being investigated for allegedly misusing more than ZiG1.3 million from a Constituency Development Fund (CDF), according to ZimLive.

The money was given to him in August last year. It is alleged that he quickly moved the funds through several transactions until they ended up in a microfinance company’s account, which then reportedly paid him in US dollars.

The Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) was said to be ready to arrest him last week, but reports claim that a senior ZANU PF official stepped in and stopped the arrest.

say the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe’s Financial Intelligence Unit is assisting in the investigation.

Hungwe, a first-term MP elected in 2023, is a director of two companies – Tatiude (Pvt) Ltd and Matquick Hardware (Pvt) Ltd.

Mberengwa East received ZiG1,341,500 (about US$53,000) under the CDF, paid out on August 14, 2025, according to documents seen by ZimLive.

Soon after, Hungwe transferred ZiG799,641.32 to Tatiude and ZiG440,171.37 to Matquick Hardware, both linked to him.

The companies then moved the funds to Simbaramabwe Construction and Hardware (Pvt) Ltd – ZiG760,000 from Tatiude and ZiG361,000 from Matquick.

Simbaramabwe subsequently channelled the money to Success Microfinance, where the trail goes cold. Investigators believe the firm then paid Hungwe in US dollars.

A source familiar with the probe said there were “strong suspicions of misuse, possible diversion of public funds from their intended purpose, and an obvious conflict of interest potentially amounting to money laundering.”

CDF allocations are meant for constituency projects pre-approved by Parliament and managed by a local committee comprising the area senator, proportional representation MP, selected councillors and traditional leaders. Signatories are drawn from this committee and operate a designated account.

ZACC had not responded to detailed questions at the time of publication, despite earlier indications it would do so. We had specifically asked the anti-graft body to respond to allegations of political interference in its investigations.

Hungwe insisted he could account for the funds but declined to answer questions about the companies involved, identify members of his CDF committee, or specify which projects had been funded.

“Diverting CDF money, me? That is not a true story,” he said in response to written questions which he did not address.

Hungwe is the second Zanu PF MP to be investigated over alleged CDF abuse this year.

In January, Chiredzi West MP Darlington Chiwa was arrested by ZACC for allegedly diverting over ZiG990,000 (about US$50,000 at the April 2025 exchange rate) from the constituency account into his personal accounts.

He is accused of using the funds for personal expenses, including beer, shoes, groceries and building materials, with only a small portion going towards constituency projects.

The case is pending.

/The Government says civil servants are now among the best-paid workers in Zimbabwe and claims that the private sector has become “unsettled” as public sector salaries begin to surpass those offered by many companies.

The Government says civil servants are now among the best-paid workers in Zimbabwe and claims that the private sector has become “unsettled” as public sector salaries begin to surpass those offered by many companies.

Finance, Economic Development and Investment Promotion Deputy Minister Kudakwashe Mnangagwa made the remarks in Parliament on March 10, 2026, while responding to a question about the timing of the next salary review for Government workers.According to The Chronicle, the Deputy Minister said the State had managed to ensure that even the lowest-paid civil servants now earn above the Poverty Datum Line (PDL).

Addressing legislators, Deputy Minister Mnangagwa said Government salary structures have improved over time, placing public workers above the poverty threshold.explained that the lowest-paid Government employee receives around US$320 (about R5 920) plus an additional ZiG component equivalent to between US$40 and US$60 (about R740 to R1 110).

Introducing his response in Parliament iament, he said salary reviews are usually tied to cost-of-living considerations.

“Indeed, it has been quite some time since there was a salary review. These salary reviews usually come as cost-of-living adjustments, but we have experienced some stability over the last year and a half.”

He then outlined the structure of the lowest Government salary.

“Just to give some context around the architecture of the lowest-paid civil servant, you will find that it is US$320 (about R5 920) and a ZiG equivalent of about US$40 or US$60 (about R740 to R1 110). I will have to checkThis puts all our civil servants from the lowest paid — the cleaner — to the highest paid, above the poverty datum line. This is something we have strived over and over to achieve.”

The Poverty Datum Line represents the minimum income required to meet basic needs such as food, accommodation, healthcare and education.

The Zimbabwe National Statistics Agency (ZimStat) indicated that the Total Consumption Poverty Line for one person stood at ZiG 1 260,52 per month as of March 2025.

BINDURA — A 24-year-old Bindura man, Kudakwashe Lordship Tengende, has been convicted by the Bindura Magistrates’ Court on charges of cyberbullying and harassment.

The Incident

According to a public bulletin released by the National Prosecuting Authority of Zimbabwe (NPAZ) on March 4, 2026, the conviction stems from an incident involving Tengende's 29-year-old ex-girlfriend. The two individuals separated on February 2, 2026, following a misunderstanding. Following the separation, Tengende reclaimed a cellphone he had previously given the victim to use, but he did not allow her the opportunity to log out of her personal Facebook and TikTok accounts.

On February 4, 2026, Tengende utilized this unauthorized access to log into the victim's social media accounts and post an "obscene audio message" intended to humiliate her. The platforms were accessible to over 3,500 of the victim's followers.

Repeated Harassment and Arrest

The NPAZ reported that the victim began receiving numerous phone calls from followers alerting her to the offensive content. Although the victim deleted the audio message, Tengende repeatedly reposted the material. The victim removed the post four times before she formally reported the matter to the police, which subsequently led to Tengende's arrest.

Sentencing and NPAZ Warning

Tengende pleaded guilty to the charges brought against him. The magistrate sentenced him to 12 months in prison, though the sentence was entirely suspended under specific conditions. Four months of the sentence were suspended on the condition that he does not commit a similar offence, while the remaining eight months were suspended on the condition that he performs 280 hours of community service.

In its bulletin, the NPAZ issued a firm public warning regarding digital conduct, stating, "Social media must not be weaponised to humiliate, harass or degrade others". The prosecuting authority emphasized that digital platforms are not lawless spaces and that individuals who abuse technology to settle personal scores will face severe legal consequences. - Zimbo LIVE Harare

HARARE, 7 March 2026 – A decisive restructuring of Zimbabwe’s military command structure is underway following a series of rapid personnel moves at the heart of the country’s security establishment, signalling a significant recalibration of power within the state’s defence architecture.Sources within the Zimbabwe Defence Forces confirm that a carefully coordinated realignment has been executed under the authority of the Commander-in-Chief and the Zimbabwe Defence Forces High Command. The move follows the elevation of General Asher Walter Tapfumaneyi to the rank of full Army General late last year, a promotion that insiders say positioned him strategically within the upper command hierarchy ahead of the latest developments.

Military insiders describe the current shake-up as a targeted effort to dismantle what security officials viewed as an emerging centre of influence operating around the household of Vice-President Constantino Chiwenga.military intelligence sources report that Colonel Minnie Baloyi, spouse of the Vice-President, has been removed from her operational position and reassigned to what insiders describe as a non-command administrative placement within the General Officers’ Pool. The reassignment effectively strips the position of operational authority.

Officials familiar with the decision say the measure was designed to end alleged interference in command structures and internal security deliberations related to state leadership succession and constitutional governance.

At the same time, the Director of Military Intelligence, Colonel Mandaza, has reportedly been relieved of his duties and reassigned for military training in the People’s Republic of China. The redeployment is understood to fall under bilateral defence cooperation arrangements between Harare and Beijing.

Sources say both actions were carried out quietly and without confrontation, in line with Zimbabwe Defence Forces standing procedures.The developments come days after outspoken political figure and former legislator Temba Mliswa publicly warned of tensions within security structures and alleged that Colonel Baloyi had become a conduit for internal military briefings related to political manoeuvres surrounding constitutional amendments.Mliswa stated that certain military officers who had recently met to discuss matters concerning him had reportedly delivered their findings directly to Colonel Baloyi.

In his statement issued on 1 March 2026, Mliswa said:

“The military officials who convened recently concerning me and made a resolution to stop me reportedly went and delivered a report to Colonel Baloyi. I have always held the Army and our security forces in high esteem.

This has informed my interactions with esteemed Zimbabwean Generals such as Mujuru, Zvinavashe, Zimondi, Tungamirai, Shiri, Chimonyo, Chimombe, and Moyo reflecting a profound respect for their leadership. It is inconceivable that I could be mentored by such figures if I did not recognize their significance.certain elements within the security apparatus to suppress individual freedoms, particularly when such actions arise solely from their positions of authority and political ambitions.

Zimbabwe has never been known for assassinations and those who engage in such schemes must be prepared to face similar and inevitable repercussions of their actions. Hazvisi zvekutyisidzirana.Therefore, no individual or faction should attempt to commandeer the people’s revolution for personal political gain. I remain steadfastly loyal to the current leader of this nation, as should every citizen, for such loyalty and respect are essential for any future leadership to thrive during their own term in office.”

Within defence circles, analysts interpret the latest moves as part of a wider repositioning taking place inside Zimbabwe’s security sector as political succession debates intensify ahead of future constitutional milestones.

The Zimbabwe Defence Forces High Command has not issued an official public statement regarding the personnel changes, maintaining the institution’s longstanding practice of operational discretion.

However, sources close to Joint Operations Command structures say the current developments mark a clear message that the military chain of command will remain tightly controlled and insulated from competing political influence.

For now, the reshaping of the command landscape appears to signal a deeper struggle unfolding behind the scenes within Zimbabwe’s governing elite — one that is increasingly being fought inside the corridors of the security establishment itself.

A video recorded at a busy market in Lagos has recently gone viral online, drawing widespread reactions from social media users across Nigeria and beyond. The short clip, which appears to have been filmed by bystanders, captures a tense moment that unfolded in the middle of the crowded marketplace.

 Video on WhatsApp https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vb6dxKvFCCoXLbB8dA39

According to online discussions, the incident reportedly began after a disagreement between individuals at one of the stalls. The video shows people gathering around as the situation quickly attracted attention from traders and shoppers nearby. Within moments, the scene became the focus of several smartphone recordings, with clips later appearing on social media platforms.

As the footage spread online, many viewers shared their reactions and opinions about the moment. Some users expressed surprise at how quickly the situation escalated in such a public place, while others pointed out how common it has become for everyday events to be captured and shared widely on the internet.

Markets in Lagos are known for their vibrant atmosphere, with thousands of traders and visitors moving through them daily. Because of the large crowds and fast-paced environment, small misunderstandings can sometimes attract attention quickly, especially when recorded on camera.

Social media users have been actively commenting on the video, with many urging others to avoid jumping to conclusions until more information about the situation becomes available. As with many viral clips, the full context behind the incident may not be completely visible in the brief footage circulating online.

The video has continued to gain traction online as people discuss the event and share their perspectives on what they saw. It also highlights how social media has transformed the way news and everyday moments spread across communities in real time.

At the moment, there has been no official statement from local authorities regarding the incident, and details surrounding the individuals involved remain limited.

As discussions continue online, the trending clip serves as another example of how quickly an unexpected moment in a public space can become a widely talked-about topic across social media.

Convicted of stock theft in 2021, the brothers from Rusape were branded criminals and sent to prison.

One of them is a police officer.

Their story is one of investigative failings, judicial errors and prosecutorial negligence – an enduring reminder of how fragile justice can be.

Their ordeal began on November 14, 2020, in Tikwiri Village, when Diana Murombe reported two of her oxen were missing.She wasted no time in accusing the Sanyatwe brothers of theft, and the wheels of justice turned with alarming speed.

By September 2021, the brothers were convicted and sentenced to 10 years in prison with one year suspended for good behaviour.

Their hopes of overturning the conviction dimmed when their appeal at the High Court was dismissed.

But the truth, like the stray cattle that would later emerge, could not remain hidden forever.

In a stunning twist, the oxen Murombe had reported stolen were found in Mutambira Village, under Chief Tandi.In an affidavit, she admitted that the animals, now recovered, were back in her possession.

Police corroborated this finding and the evidence began to unravel.

With this new information, the brothers’ legal team, led by Pepukai Mabundu and assisted by Brian Kashangura, approached the Supreme Court to challenge the flawed convictions.

Appearing before Justices Antonio Guvava, Nicholas Mathonsi, and Hlekani Mwayera, Mabundu tore to shreds the original case with precision.The report made by the complainant against the appellants was clearly false,” Mabundu argued.

“In light of this new evidence, the conviction was improper and should be set aside.”

The affidavit signed by Murombe was damning.

During the trial, she had described the missing oxen as “one with white patches and the other grey in colour.”

Yet, the recovered animals bore no resemblance to her description.

Her stock card, presented as proof of ownership, did not even list oxen matching her claims.These glaring inconsistencies had been overlooked at trial and on appeal, oversights that sealed the brothers’ fate.

Mabundu said the State’s failure to establish ownership of the animals, was a critical element of the case.

“The issue of ownership of the two oxen was a critical matter which the State failed to prove. This failure was fatal to the prosecution’s case,” he said.

Throughout the ordeal, the Sanyatwe brothers had maintained their innocence.

They insisted they had purchased the oxen from two individuals, Ms Maria Kadengu and another man known as Mupositori.

These witnesses, however, were never called to testify.

To make matters worse, Chrispen – a police officer at Rusape Rural Police Station, had even assisted in clearing the oxen before they were delivered to Surrey Abattoir.

Despite these facts, the trial court relied heavily on Murombe’s testimony and her flawed stock card to convict the brothersAt the Supreme Court hearing, the cracks in the case became undeniable.

Representing the National Prosecution Authority, Tozivepi Mapfuwa conceded that the conviction was not safe.

Justice Mathonsi’s skepticism was pointed:

“Could any reasonable court have convicted the brothers based on the complainant’s credibility and the new evidence?”

The answer was clear.

“In the circumstances of this case, the State will concede that it was not safe to convict, and the accused should be given the benefit of the doubt and be acquitted,” Mapfuwa admitted.

The Supreme Court wasted no time in delivering its judgment.

The brothers’ conviction was quashed, and their freedom was restored.

“Whereupon, after reading documents filed of record and hearing counsel, it is ordered by consent that: the appeal be and is hereby allowed… the accused persons are found not guilty and acquitted,” the court ruled.

For Chrispen and Taurai, freedom came at a devastating cost.

Four years of their lives were stolen.

Chrispen, once a respected officer of the law, saw his career and reputation destroyed.

Taurai’s life was similarly derailed, leaving both men to rebuild from the rubble of wrongful imprisonment.

Their case is a sobering reminder of the flaws in the justice system. It underscores the urgent need for reforms to prevent such tragedies from recurring.

The Sanyatwe brothers’ ordeal is not just a story of injustice – it is a call to action, a plea for accountability in the pursuit of fairness.

Justice delayed is justice denied,” the saying goes.

For both men, it was also justice almost lost.

Yet their resilience in the face of adversity stands as a testimony to the human spirit’s capacity to endure even the darkest trials.

A BUSINESSMAN dumped his estranged wife’s belongings at her workplace – Selborne Routledge School in Harare.

Mike Charles arrived at the school yesterday in the company of three other men.

He confronted his estranged wife, Patricia Yusufu, and dumped her belongings at the school.

The couple’s marriage of 18 years began to deteriorate last year.Mike claims he found out that Patricia was allegedly having an affair with a married man who lives in the UK, who has only been identified as Walter.

Following a heated confrontation, Patricia left the family home.

The four men disrupted lessons in a Grade 3 class during the commotion.

The unexpected sight of four men carrying loaded sacks drew the attention of teachers and students.

They emptied the contents onto the classroom floor.

“Hiiiiii, mmmmmmm, aaaah,” screamed the pupils.

Patricia, visibly distressed, pleaded with the men to stop emptying the sacks.

She said she wanted the belongings to be put in her car, which was parked nearby.

One of the men said:

“Mudhara vati matsaga avo vari kuada kunoisa chibage kufarm.”

The school authorities barred Patricia from commenting on the incident.Mike claimed Patricia has continued to provoke him through her relationship with another man, who lives in the neighbourhood.

“Patricia is the one who decided to cheat and left home without warning,” Mike said.

“She should be the one giving me a token of divorce. Her parents even support her actions, claiming this man was her first boyfriend.

“To add salt to my wounds, she’s flirting with her lover right under my nose.

“She’s been giving my cars to her family without my knowledge.She is now driving a Honda Fit bought by her lover because of her unfaithfulness when she used to drive a Mercedes Benz. “

Mike filed a report claiming that she stole US$5,200 when she left their home.

Patricia was convicted and sentenced to 24 months in prison, which was wholly suspended for three years on the condition of good behaviour.

She completed 170 hours of community service at Wilkins Hospital and paid restitution to Mike.

A wave of online discussion has erupted across social media after the Nyati family shared a story claiming they lost $12,000 USD in what they described as an ATM scam involving Facebook earnings.

The story quickly spread across Zimbabwean online communities, sparking sympathy, concern, and debate. Many followers initially expressed support, saying the situation highlighted the risks digital creators face when handling online income.

However, as the story gained traction, questions and skepticism began to surface from some social media users.

Questions Raised by Online Commentators

A number of commenters have pointed to banking policies in South Africa — particularly withdrawal limits at ATMs — suggesting the situation may not be as straightforward as initially believed.

Several users claimed that:

These points led to growing online speculation, with some people suggesting the story could be misunderstood, incomplete, or possibly exaggerated.

Viral Attention and Creator Economy Pressure

The situation has also sparked a broader conversation about the pressures faced by digital creators.

Some observers believe viral storytelling has become a powerful tool in the creator economy, where emotional or dramatic stories often attract:

This has led to divided opinions online:

No Official Confirmation

At this stage, there has been no official banking statement or confirmed documentation released publicly regarding the alleged incident.

As with many viral social media stories, the full details remain unclear, and the conversation continues to evolve as more voices join the debate.

Chinhoyi residents were left talking this week after a private relationship dispute reportedly spilled into a church WhatsApp group on Valentine’s Day.

WhatsApp Video https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vb6dxKvFCCoXLbB8dA39

According to sources familiar with the situation, an AFM pastor in Chinhoyi allegedly ended his relationship with his girlfriend on February 14. Insiders claim the breakup came unexpectedly and left the woman deeply upset.

What began as a personal disagreement soon escalated into a public digital confrontation.

Private Moments Shared Publicly

In what many are describing as an emotional reaction, the woman allegedly shared a video of the two together in a romantic setting inside a church WhatsApp group. The group is reportedly administered by the pastor’s wife and includes church members.

The video, which has since been removed, quickly sparked heated discussion among congregants before administrators intervened.

Social Media and Relationship Risks

The incident has reignited conversations about privacy, boundaries, and the risks of sharing personal content in relationships. Experts often warn that private videos and photos can become sources of conflict if relationships turn sour.

Community members in Chinhoyi have expressed mixed reactions. While some sympathize with the emotional pain involved, others have stressed the importance of handling personal disputes privately rather than involving wider groups.

Church Yet to Issue Official Statement

As of now, there has been no formal statement from church leadership regarding the matter. However, sources indicate that internal discussions may be taking place to address the situation.

A Lesson in Digital Responsibility

This incident serves as a reminder of how quickly personal issues can become public in the digital age. Once content is shared online — even in private groups — it can spread rapidly and have lasting consequences.

Observers say the situation highlights the importance of maturity, communication, and caution when it comes to recording and sharing intimate moments.

HARARE – Zimbabwean prisoners Mike Chimombe and Moses Mpofu were badly beaten by prison guards at Chikurubi Maximum Security Prison on Wednesday after they were caught with mobile phones in their prison cells. Full Video WhatsApp https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vb6dxKvFCCoXLbB8dA39

The two prisoners, who were convicted of corruption and fraud and sentenced to lengthy jail terms, were being monitored following reports that they were communicating with the outside world and using social media as part of their communications network. 

A monitoring team was set up to track their social media presence, including checking their WhatsApp activity and Facebook online status, which is indicated by the green light when a user is active.

When Moses Mpofu went online, a team of prison officers raided his cell and went straight to him, where an iPhone mobile phone was recovered.

He was taken out of the cell and beaten severely until he revealed to the guards that his fellow prisoner and associate, Mike Chimombe, also had a mobile phone. He went on to name the prison officers who allegedly kept the phones for them during the day and handed them over at night when prisoners were locked in their cells.

A second team of prison guards then raided Chimombe’s cell and found him in possession of an iPhone. He was also dragged out of his cell and beaten heavily.

Both prisoners sustained injuries and had to be taken to the prison hospital within Chikurubi Maximum Security Prison for treatment.

The prison officers implicated in assisting them were detained. Their living quarters within the prison compound were searched, where iPhone chargers used to power the smuggled mobile phones during the day were reportedly recovered.

A disciplinary tribunal was convened last Friday, where the implicated prison officers were found guilty of misconduct and subsequently dismissed from the Zimbabwe Prisons and Correctional Service.

The prison service, which falls under the Ministry of Justice, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs, is now said to be in discussions with relevant authorities to consider withdrawing the remission that had been granted to the two inmates.

Remission is a system under which a prisoner’s sentence is reduced by the prison authorities, allowing them to serve a shorter period than the full term imposed by the court, subject to good behaviour and compliance with prison regulations.

Mike Chimombe and Moses Mpofu were jailed after being convicted of fraud linked to the Presidential Goat Pass-On Scheme, in which they were found to have defrauded the State through a corrupt livestock supply tender.

Mpofu was sentenced to 22 years in prison, with eight years suspended, leaving an effective 15-year jail term, while Chimombe was sentenced to 17 years, with five years suspended, leaving an effective 12-year jail term.

They have appealed against both their convictions and sentences, and this latest development is unlikely to have any bearing on the outcome of their appeal, as it does not relate to the merits of the case or the legality of the trial and sentence.

A senior prisons source told Nehanda Radio that prison security breaches are treated as serious disciplinary and, in some cases, criminal matters because they undermine institutional control, safety, and the integrity of custodial sentences.

He said when prohibited items such as mobile phones are discovered, prisons launch internal investigations to determine how the breach occurred, whether staff were complicit, and whether inmates violated prison regulations.

He said that prisoners found in possession of contraband usually face sanctions including solitary confinement, loss of privileges, withdrawal of remission, or additional charges if criminal conduct is established.

He added that correctional systems like Chikurubi Prison treat such breaches firmly because unauthorised communication can facilitate further crimes, witness interference, corruption, or the compromise of security operations.

The prison service is now studying the communications the two prisoners made and the people they were communicating with to establish whether further crimes were committed.

A recent funeral gathering has become the center of heated discussion online after a group of women from a Masowe apostolic sect performed an energetic and unconventional dance in front of a coffin during the ceremony. The moment, captured on video by attendees, quickly spread across social media platforms and left many viewers surprised, confused, and divided in opinion.

According to witnesses, the dance took place as part of the group’s spiritual expression and mourning rituals. In many African cultures, funerals are not only a time of grief but also a moment to celebrate the life of the departed. Singing, dancing, and prayer often play a role in helping families cope with loss. However, the style and intensity of this particular performance caught the attention of viewers who felt it differed from what they usually expect to see at a funeral.

Social media users quickly began sharing their thoughts, with reactions ranging from support and understanding to criticism and disbelief. Some people defended the group, explaining that different religious sects and communities have unique ways of expressing grief and honoring the deceased. Others felt the performance was inappropriate for such a solemn occasion and questioned whether traditions are changing too quickly in the digital age.

Cultural experts often remind the public that Zimbabwe, like many countries, is home to diverse beliefs and practices. What may appear unusual to one community can hold deep spiritual meaning for another. The viral video has therefore sparked broader conversations about cultural tolerance, respect for religious diversity, and the impact of social media in shaping public perception of private ceremonies.

As the clip continues to circulate online, many are calling for empathy and understanding, emphasizing that funerals remain deeply personal events for families and communities. The discussion serves as a reminder that traditions evolve over time, and dialogue can help bridge the gap between different perspectives.

$60 k goneI dont know why these toyota GD 6's keep speedingGd6 isnt a speed beast but a load warrior so dont do experiments with it you loose life/funds 

Highest speed should be160

​HARARE – Motorists and local residents were left in shock on Sunday night following a horrific road accident involving a white Toyota Hilux GD6 along Enterprise Road, near the Highlands Park shopping precinct.

​The vehicle, which appears to have been traveling at a high rate of speed, reportedly lost control before veering off the tarmac and flipping multiple times. It eventually came to a rest on its roof, resting precariously against a residential perimeter wall protected by Safeguard Security.

​Images from the scene show the vehicle completely inverted, with the undercarriage exposed and severe structural damage to the front and roof. The impact was violent enough to shatter the windshield and deploy airbags, leaving debris scattered across the paved sidewalk.

​Witnesses at the scene noted that the area, which is a notorious stretch for speeding during late hours, was quickly swarmed by first responders and security personnel from the nearby property.

​This latest incident has sparked a fresh wave of warnings from Zimbabwean musicians and public figures, who took to social media to urge drivers to exercise extreme caution.

​"Everyone please be careful on the roads. The GD6 lost control on Enterprise Road near Highlands Park. It’s a miracle if anyone walked away from that," one witness shared online.

​The Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) have frequently warned against night-time speeding, especially on major arteries like Enterprise Road, where visibility and sudden turns can prove fatal for those exceeding the speed limit.

Kumbirai “Chibage” Kangai’s Widow Dies 

By A Correspondent — The late senior ZANU-PF official and former Agriculture Minister Kumbirai “Chibage” Kangai’s widow, Miriam, has died. She was 69. 

Mrs Kangai had been receiving treatment for lung cancer in South Africa, where she passed away. Mourners have gathered at the family home at Number 24 Glen Forest Road in Harare.

 Family spokesperson Tinayo Kangai confirmed her death.

“We have lost a mother, a strong pillar of the Kangai family. Mhamha, affectionately known as The Queen, will be remembered for her ability to unite the family under the mantra kubatana ndoUnity, a strong slogan used by the late KK,” the spokesperson said.

Kumbirai Kangai died in 2013 at the age of 75. At the time of his death he was a ZANU-PF politburo member and had served in various Cabinet positions over several decades.

Kangai gained notoriety during his tenure as Agriculture Minister in the late 1990s, when he became embroiled in one of Zimbabwe’s most controversial public procurement scandals. 

In 2000 he was arrested and charged with corruption related to a multimillion-dollar scandal involving the state-run Grain Marketing Board (GMB), the agency responsible for the import and export of maize — Zimbabwe’s staple crop.

 Kangai, along with senior officials including the GMB’s managing director and his own ministry’s permanent secretary, was accused of awarding lucrative grain export and import contracts without proper tender procedures, undermining procurement regulations and allegedly causing significant financial loss to the state.

The charges included allegations that Kangai issued export permits and manipulated grain contracts in ways that benefited select parties, while ordinary farmers waited for payments and grain supplies became politicised.

However, in 2002 the High Court acquitted Kangai and his co-accused after the prosecution failed to present evidence sufficient to secure a conviction. The judge ruled that strong suspicions did not rise to the level of proof required for criminal conviction, leaving the case mired in public frustration and allegations of procedural mishandling.

The GMB scandal took place against a broader backdrop of Zimbabwean governance challenges in the 1990s and early 2000s, when public resources were frequently alleged to have been diverted by senior political actors while the country faced chronic food insecurity, drought, and economic hardship. Reports from that era documented irregularities in the distribution of maize and other basic commodities, with accusations that state mechanisms disproportionately benefited political elites and their cronies, leaving vulnerable citizens with inadequate access to food and essential support.

Despite widespread public outrage at the time, and police investigations that implicated Kangai and others, the lack of convictions reinforced perceptions that senior ZANU-PF officials could evade accountability. For many ordinary farmers and citizens, the scandal — and its unresolved justice outcomes — epitomised deep-rooted impunity in a political system where patronage often trumped rule of law.

What was meant to be a joyful celebration of love reportedly turned into a shocking and emotional scene after a Zimbabwean woman was allegedly assaulted by her Nigerian husband during their wedding reception in the United Kingdom.

According to guests who attended the ceremony, tension began building shortly after the traditional proceedings when the groom reportedly became upset over cultural expectations.
