A politician just dropped off roofing supplies and fence rolls at a local prison, framing it as national development. Insiza South MP Spare Sithole donated materials to Filabusi Prison for cell blocks and its Escadale Farm, pledging a solar borehole for water security. He stated the support aligns with the broader government vision and ensures dignity for inmates and officers.
Acting District Development Coordinator Zibusiso Maphosa praised Sithole’s consistent backing of state departments. The lawmaker’s recent projects include installing an electricity transformer in Ward Two to solve power issues. He also covers school fees for disadvantaged children and provides building materials to improve local educational infrastructure.

A mining collapse in Filabusi just swallowed three people alive in a brutal accident. Two workers were buried deep inside Hebenia Mine when its shaft gave way. One victim’s spouse rushed toward the failing structure and also became trapped under the earth.
Police spokesperson Commissioner Paul Nyathi confirmed the incident, noting the extreme depth of roughly eleven meters, complicating rescue efforts. Teams worked extensively to reach the trapped individuals as shocked locals watched the desperate operation unfold. The community gathered near the site, holding out hope for a miracle recovery.
That youth service certificate just became your ticket to every Zimbabwean government job and college spot. Over 2,000 young people recently went through the retooled national training program, with sessions held at centers in Dadaya, Vumba, and Guyu across multiple provinces.
The revamped initiative aims to instill skills and discipline to boost employability. The cabinet has officially mandated the program's completion certificate for entry into state universities and public sector employment. Recruitment into security sector roles will also prioritize these graduates.
The scheme was revived after an earlier version trained thousands before halting. It continues to accept new applicants nationwide for its curriculum, which focuses...
Illegal wetland housing schemes are turning into a total clown show for desperate homeowners. People in areas like Glen View, Budiriro, and Chitungwiza are risking their lives in homes built on soggy ground, with floods washing away walls and contaminated water threatening health. Resident Mary Chikomo described flooded houses and broken perimeter walls, highlighting a lack of drainage and proper services.
The Environmental Management Agency is cracking down hard with a nationwide restoration push. Spokesperson Amkela Sidange stated a zero-tolerance policy for illegal development on these ecologically sensitive zones. The agency uses mapped wetlands to guide planning and issues stop work orders, having pursued multiple court cases...
A prophet's multimillion-dollar spiritual warehouse got bulldozed, and man, did that ever sting. T Freddy's church in Glenview was flattened by city authorities, a move that hit him hard financially and emotionally. His track "Ndiri Kurwadziwa" basically became the theme song for that whole painful ordeal.
The guy channeled that frustration into a comeback, securing a new plot at Highglen and Mushayabande Road. He's now finishing a modern facility designed to hold over thirty five hundred people. T Freddy acknowledged the major past setback but maintained his belief was always rewarded.
He emphasized investing heavily to create a proper worship environment, framing the new building as a testament to faithfulness. The project...
They’re finally replacing oxen with tractors in every single village. Zimbabwe’s government is pushing small tractors and full business hubs into rural areas to force a farming overhaul. Each Village Business Unit gets a solar borehole, water tanks, irrigated gardens, fish ponds, and livestock infrastructure alongside the machinery.
Permanent Secretary Obert Jiri stated the hand hoe era is over, calling mechanisation a necessity for modernising agriculture. These smaller tractors are meant for community shared use, supporting timely land prep and higher productivity. The model aims to turn subsistence plots into market-oriented enterprises.

Zimbabwe's shoe game might finally stop being a total import clown show. A new factory in Harare is getting ready to pump out shoe soles and critical parts, aiming to cut the massive flow of outside footwear. The country brings in millions of pairs yearly, creating a huge gap that this operation wants to fill.
The company, Lituo Shoe Outsoles and Accessories Manufacturing, has equipment installed and more on the way. Spokesperson Kudzanai Dube stated the facility could make eighty thousand pairs monthly once running. Director Zhang Datong is backing the project, a venture with over a million dollars in approved investment.

Farmers across Zimbabwe are staring at a potential crop disaster because they can't get ammonium nitrate fertilizer. Heavy continuous rains are washing away soil nutrients right when maize needs top dressing the most, and agro dealers have empty shelves. This specific fertilizer is key in wet conditions because it stays in the soil better than other types.
Sheila Moyo, a farmer from Ntabazinduna in Umguza District, says crops are turning yellow from nutrient loss. The excessive rainfall causes leaching, stripping nitrogen, which is vital for plant growth and green leaves. Farmer Zibusiso Ndlovu stresses that applying nitrogen after planting is non-negotiable for healthy maize, even if basal fertilizer was used initially.

Zimbabwe's marriage certificates are basically becoming fancy souvenirs at this point. The High Court there got swamped with nearly four thousand divorce applications recently, a huge jump from before, but actually finishing those cases dropped off hard. Courts in Harare, Bulawayo, Masvingo, Mutare, and Chinhoyi are all buckling under the weight.
Harare handled the most filings by a wide margin, while Bulawayo saw a massive percentage spike in people wanting out. Smaller stations like Masvingo and Mutare had more stable numbers, and Chinhoyi's figures barely moved. This all happens as plenty of couples still get married, highlighting a weird gap between weddings and lasting unions.
Experts point to a brutal mix of economics and...
