People in Mbare feel proud because the Government fixed up their suburb. They built a new classroom block at Harare High School with modern computer labs. Students from other areas want to attend school there these days. Parents say the headmistress, Mrs Satande, helps maintain good discipline. Former students come back just to see how nice everything looks.
The market area was cleaned up, making shopping easier for everyone. President Mnangagwa opened this improved marketplace yesterday. The changes match what leaders promised in their National Development Strategy 1 plan. Minister Dr Muswere recently talked about 57 new schools across Zimbabwe. Residents believe Mbare has a bright future ahead.

Kizz Daniel just released Police, the first single from his upcoming Uncle K album. The catchy song tells a funny story about someone who feels like calling the police because their partner looks so good. He started making it with Johnny Drille before adding Kidjo to bring her pan-African style. The music team included MOG Beatz and Blaise Beatz, who worked with stars like Chris Brown, Wizkid, and Davido, alongside Johnny Drille himself.
The track mixes love and humor, with artists from different generations working together. Kizz brings sharp storytelling with his cool style, Drille adds rich harmonies, and Kidjo brings her classic touch, even using parts from her 1994 hit Agolo in the chorus. The fun song has a deep meaning about...
Orthodox Christians will celebrate Lazarus on Saturday, April 12, 2025. This holiday comes right before Palm Sunday. It honors when Jesus brought his friend Lazarus back from the dead. Young Russians used to wander between houses singing Lazarus songs for treats. People gently hit each other with willow branches, believing it brought health.
The rules about food loosen up during this day despite Lent continuing. Worshippers can enjoy fish eggs, vegetable oil, and small amounts of wine. Traditional foods include buckwheat pancakes and pea dishes as symbols of spring renewal. Similar customs exist in Bulgaria, where lazarki girls sing house-to-house for goodies. Greeks bake special lazarakia cookies shaped like little people.

Al Hilal coach Jorge Jesus thinks his team can still win the league title. After their 1-1 draw with Al Ittifaq today, he stayed positive about their chances. The match was part of round 27 in the Saudi Professional League. Jesus told reporters they had a tough first half but played better after the break. He believes the seven-point gap behind the leaders remains manageable.
Jesus mentioned Mitrovic's coming back helps their chances, as the striker keeps improving his game. When asked about choosing between the league race and the AFC Champions League, he refused to pick one target over the other. Both competitions matter equally to him. Jesus also addressed rumors about coaching Brazil. He said he talked with the Al Hilal president...
Milan's manager, Sergio Conceicao, warned that the team needs to wake up earlier in matches. The team has fallen behind in six straight league games. They did manage to battle back against Fiorentina last weekend after going down 2-0 early, but that pattern can't continue.
The Portuguese coach often makes halftime substitutions but claims this isn't planned. He watches how games develop and reacts accordingly. Milan sits ninth in Serie A, nine points off the Champions League places. Their comeback ability shows character, but Conceicao wants them focused from kickoff.
He's sticking with the 4-2-3-1 formation used under previous manager Paulo Fonseca. Despite Luka Jovic scoring twice as a sub lately, Conceicao won't pair him with Tammy...
AC Milan keeper Mike Maignan left the field on a stretcher after a scary head clash with teammate Alex Jimenez during Friday's match against Udinese. The accident happened 55 minutes into the game when Maignan rushed out to clear a dangerous ball but crashed into his defender instead.
Both players fell hard. Maignan appeared to black out briefly. The referee stopped play right away, even though Udinese had a clear shot at an empty net. Medical staff placed the French goalkeeper in a recovery position before carrying him off. Milan officials confirmed he remained conscious when leaving the pitch. Reports later revealed he went straight to the hospital for medical checks.
Jimenez stayed on the field but looked confused. He continued...
Milan has set their eyes on Italian striker Lorenzo Lucca. The club wants to shake up their forward options this summer. Their scouts will watch him closely tonight as he leads the attack for Udinese. Many teams have noticed his strong season with 10 goals already.
Milan tried to grab him last January, but Udinese said no. They went for Santiago Gimenez instead, paying €28.5 million to Feyenoord. Lucca might cost similar money if he keeps scoring. The next Milan coach - probably Maurizio Sarri - must build the team around Gimenez because of how much they spent on him. Tammy Abraham hopes Milan will keep him permanently after his loan ends.
The club needs more Italian players in its squad. Tonight, Lucca has a chance to show Milan what...
People across Zimbabwe wonder why they must pay for blood when donors give it away free. The National Blood Service explained that patients cover processing costs instead of buying the actual blood. They said donated blood needs many steps before anyone can use it. Blood must pass infection tests, get separated into different parts, stay properly refrigerated, and meet safety rules.
The government started giving free blood at public hospitals in 2018. This means nobody pays directly in these hospitals because the government handles all costs. Once blood leaves the blood service, hospitals control how patients receive it. The blood service makes zero profit from these transactions. They simply need money to keep operations running...
Cancer patients at Mpilo Hospital need almost a million rand for new power backup equipment. Their radiation machines break down when the electricity cuts out because these devices hate power changes. Two treatment machines have already failed. Vice-President Kembo Mohadi visited Friday, telling the money people they must fix this problem fast. He wants patients treated locally instead of traveling to South Africa or India.
The hospital chief explained that they require 24 special batteries, totaling over R1 million. Officials suggested making the system smaller, but Mohadi rejected that idea completely. He said their country can easily afford the hundred thousand dollars needed. The cancer machines have a sad history—they sat unused...
