#HappeningNow First lady Auxillia Mnangagwa is at the Harare Magistrates Court for the sentencing hearing of alleged serial killer Anymore Zitsva who has pleaded guilty to 10 charges including rape, attempted murder and robbery. Mrs Mnangagwa has previously visited Zitsva in prison (📸). The High Court will try the 32-year-old on multiple murder charges which now stand at 15

@ny_emman The correct term is ethnic group and not "tribe'. Also what is the source/citation of that document?

Interesting, does anyone have 2022 figures?

A REVOLUTIONARY IS A CATALYST… A catalyst is substance that accelerates a chemical reaction by providing an alternative, lower-energy pathway, without being consumed or permanently changed in the process. While participating in reaction intermediates, the catalyst is regenerated, allowing it to speed up reactions repeatedly. Be a catalyst!

@HeraldZimbabwe There are just too many trucks on our roads. NRZ should do some of the hea y lifting to reduce the freight load on our poor road network.

Seven people have reportedly died after being run over by a speeding haulage truck while they were standing at an accident scene. heraldonline.co.zw/seven-killed-i…

@zimcelebs1 Are we not being excessive here. Ordinary Levels are usually written by 16 year olds. Are we sure we want to sending a teenager to jail for 5 years for an exam infraction?

THE National Assembly has increased penalties for exam malpractice to a maximum of five years in prison and approved an appeal mechanism for candidates or examination centres aggrieved by decisions of the Zimbabwe School Examinations Council (Zimsec), lawmakers said. The amendments, finalised during debate on the Zimsec Amendment Bill, raised the maximum penalty from a proposed two years (Level 7) to Level 14 on the standard scale, which carries a fine, five years’ imprisonment, or both, and allow appeals against adverse Zimsec decisions to be made to the responsible minister. During the Committee Stage, MPs agreed to broaden the offences covered by the higher penalty, including impersonation of candidates, unlawful possession of examination materials, and forging documents such as examination results. Kuwadzana MP Charlton Hwende moved the increase, saying it reflected Cabinet concerns about organised exam paper leaking; Education Minister Torerayi Moyo concurred. Proportional Representation MP Ellen Shiriyedenga successfully proposed adding a clause permitting any person or institution aggrieved by a Zimsec board decision — for example denial, scope limits, or cancellation of registration as an examination centre — to appeal to the minister and, if still dissatisfied, to the High Court. The bill was referred to the Parliamentary Legal Committee to check whether the changes are consistent with the Constitution.

@ZimFirstLady It's never a good idea to give depraved individuals such as Zvitsva such attention. A meeting with the First Lady! You can see that he is floating under the limelight.

I visited Chikurubi Maximum Prison where I met Anymore Zvitsva following the horrific murders that left many families in Guruve traumatised and communities shaken. Listening to his confession was deeply disturbing, but it was important for me to understand how such violence could emerge within our society. My thoughts remain with the bereaved families who continue to carry the pain of losing their loved ones. No words can erase that grief. As a nation, we must strengthen our values, protect our communities and support those affected by such tragedies. I pray for healing for the families and peace for the communities still struggling to come to terms with these painful events.

@FundikwaDenzel @sharonmufaro It's just privilege!

@sharonmufaro Guys those elite school kunoenda vanhu vagara vane Mari kudhara obvs vane advantage kudhara i

These elite schools push kids way ahead - the structure, razor-sharp focus sets the kids up for success right from high school. Mwana ari kuChimusoro high school won’t catch up.

@kwirirayi @TateMavetera The challenge is that we just don't know the kind of harm that social media does to young people. And this is just a barn on social media and not the internet. Other countries like China and Australia have already banned SM 4 kids!

According to @TateMavetera's well-meaning system, 'tech is the future'. But the first time a person who must invent the next social media system is when they meet it at 18. I don't think banning people is the answer. Social media harms more adults than anything. Educate people. And I want to do that.

@LarryMadowo Panezvichada hama. His worldview is similar to that of Dambudzo Marechera.

He's the first Zimbabwean to win a UFC fight but he wants nothing to do with the country, or his family. He has blocked them all. "If I die, burn my body and throw my dust at Kruger National Park," Themba Gorimbo told me. "Nobody in Zimbabwe supported me, not even my family."

@noxbhabha @NgarivhumeJ What application are using?

@NgarivhumeJ Dudzai never got to Zimbabwe....its actually Cyclone Ewetse...which became a storm...but was not affecting us directly....he hit us with surprise storms

This is Chimanimani again... Three days ago, the Met department released information that Zimbabwe will not be affected by Cyclone Dudzai. But now due to the cyclon effects, heavy rains have been puring down non stop in Manicaland, some parts of Matebeleland and Masvingo.

@freemanchari Hahaha

You can see the difference in Chirewa & Maswanhise's touches. They are used to playing on flat surfaces from juniors. Locals play in potato fields and they have to watch the ball until it gets to their feet. It means slow decision-making. In countries with proper infratructure you are pre-occupiedwith technicals not fighting with bounces.

@JakarasiMaja @PoliceZimbabwe Only a depraved individual would commit such senseless murders. I understand your concern but in this instance the people of Guruve need to be on the guard.

@PoliceZimbabwe Are you insinuating that these murders are related to mental challenges? If it is just advice, it is impoverished. How can you reduce heinous acts into single crime space? This will put people with mental illness at risk. You must refrai from that recklessness.

As investigations into the murder case which occurred at Ona Farm, Guruve continue, the ZRP urges relatives and members of the community not to ignore mentally challenged patients or individuals showing signs of mental instability within communities. The public is urged to notify the nearest health facility, social welfare office or Police Station so that the individuals can be referred to qualified professionals for treatment, proper assessment and support.

You raised a powerful and resonant argument about the need for tangible, lasting community benefits from mineral extraction. The call for meaningful community benefits derived from mining is entirely valid. However, we need to distinguish clearly between three distinct concepts: Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), Investment, and legal obligation. CSR is, by its nature, voluntary—unless it is compulsory by laws and regulations or explicitly specified in a contract. Mining companies, whether local or foreign, are profit-driven entities; their primary contribution lies in sustaining their business operations, fulfilling tax obligations, and creating job opportunities. The sustainable model lies in ensuring that state revenues generated from royalties and taxes (including CSR-related taxes) are effectively invested in public infrastructure—such as roads and schools—that benefit local communities and citizens at large. This is precisely what the Government of Zimbabwe is pursuing. Simultaneously, companies should be encouraged to engage in community projects that deliver lasting value, moving beyond one-off donations. In other words, the framework for enduring progress depends on the state translating mineral wealth into tangible community development, while companies operate responsibly, fully comply with applicable laws, and are encouraged to make social contributions. My humble views!

South Africans are stingy with engagement, today ill engage with myself until I reach 1k comments in 3 hours. I wanna feel what its like to have 1k comments.🫂
