Former information minister Jonathan Moyo wants Zimbabwe to end its radio license law. He helped create this law back in 2001. Moyo says digital technology makes the old rules useless. The government just passed new rules that force drivers to buy radio licenses before they can renew their car registration. Zimbabwe remains the only nation that makes drivers pay for radio licenses.
Moyo thinks the government should pause these new collection methods. He believes officials need time to create better ways to fund public broadcasting. The former minister says smartphones and computers have changed how people use media. Modern devices let users create and share content instead of just listening. This breaks the old system that made radio...

Pyramids of Egypt won the African Champions League on Sunday. The team beat Mamelodi Sundowns from South Africa with a 3-2 total score across both games. Croatian coach Krunoslav Jurcic led the team to victory. The club still fights for respect against bigger Cairo teams Al Ahly and Zamalek. This marks just the second major trophy for Pyramids.
Jurcic says competing against Al Ahly remains very hard. The 55-year-old coach calls Al Ahly the best team across all of Africa. His team played great football last season but could not win the domestic league. Cairo fans usually support Al Ahly or Zamalek instead of other local clubs. Most Pyramids games happen with empty stadiums.
The final drew 30,000 fans to June 30 Stadium on Sunday...
South Africa's new Expropriation Act has sparked one of the biggest diplomatic rows between Washington and Pretoria in decades. President Cyril Ramaphosa signed this controversial law in January 2025, granting his government sweeping powers to acquire private land when it serves the public interest. The law allows officials to seize property without paying the owners in specific cases, but only after talks for fair payment have broken down completely.
The government defends the law as a tool to fix deep inequalities left over from apartheid. Officials say they will target unused land and abandoned buildings rather than productive farms. They promise that private property rights remain protected and that land cannot be taken randomly or...
