The Zimbabwe government has stepped up programs to help war veterans as the country nears its April 18 independence celebration, marking 45 years of freedom. Last Saturday, they gave liberation fighter Cde Murambiwa Mujuru the keys to a new three-bedroom house in Murehwa. President Mnangagwa started this home-building program through the Presidential War Veterans Fund to improve the lives of those who fought for freedom.
This fits into what the government calls its Second Republic plans—they want to honor the people who risked everything for Zimbabwe's independence. The upcoming Uhuru celebrations in Gokwe highlight how important these fighters remain to the country today. Government and Zanu PF officials attended the ceremony where...
Zimbabwe's President Mnangagwa lashed out against enemies inside his Zanu PF party during a Thursday meeting with party officials. He promised harsh consequences for anyone plotting to remove him from office. During his heated speech, he attacked certain party members who act like shape-shifters by teaming up with foreign powers against the revolutionary values of Zanu PF. He made it clear these people would face serious punishment.
The president went after these members hard, claiming they disrespected party principles and tarnished both Zimbabwe's reputation and what fighters achieved during the independence struggle. Ex-military veterans lead the resistance to his leadership, believing the 82-year-old president mismanages the nation...
A leaked video buzzing around X has stunned Zimbabwe's political world. Senate President Mabel Chinomona appears to threaten the life of Vice-President General Constantino Chiwenga on camera. This happens as different groups inside the ruling Zanu PF party fight for control.
The shocking clip has spread fast across social media. Reports claim Chinomona said these scary things during a private talk with party officials. No one knows exactly what led up to her words, but inside sources say she warned Chiwenga to back off from challenging President Emmerson Mnangagwa.
The battle between these groups keeps heating up. Chiwenga helped Mnangagwa kick out Robert Mugabe back in 2017, but their friendship has gone cold since then. His team...
Fighting has broken out between groups in Zimbabwe's ruling party, ZANU PF. These groups clash over who should lead next—one side wants President Mnangagwa to stay longer than allowed, and the other backs Vice President Chiwenga to take power. The public fights have drawn in military veterans, security forces, and angry citizens, raising fears of possible civil war if left unchecked.
President Mnangagwa's team hopes to push the elections back from 2028 to 2030. This would give him an extra two years beyond the ten-year limit set by Zimbabwe's constitution. Recent days have seen dangerous power moves from both ZANU PF sides - military leaders changed, security troops were sent out, and protests were planned for March 31. Then, on March...
A major shake-up hit Zimbabwe when Gifford Gomwe spoke against President Mnangagwa staying in office longer than allowed. As Local Government Secretary for ZANU PF in Mashonaland West, Gomwe broke ranks with party leaders and pushed to extend presidential terms beyond what the constitution permits. His words sparked heated talks across the nation because he challenged plans from his own party.
Gomwe stated that changing term limits would harm Vision 2030 goals. This national plan aims to boost Zimbabwe into an upper-middle-income economy before the decade ends. Many citizens worry that keeping Mnangagwa as president past his legal time would create more problems for the country. People rarely hear disagreement inside ZANU PF ranks...
People across Zimbabwe spoke out against protest calls spread by online troublemakers through social media. Government officials said these calls create a fake story about political problems that do not exist. Security forces stand ready to deal with any trouble that might happen.
Many Bulawayo residents said violent protests would hurt business operations, damage how people make money, and break the peace everyone enjoys right now. They asked the government to punish anyone who breaks laws. Mrs. Khangelani Msimanga, age 75, worried about what the demonstrations might cause.
She mentioned that experience shows violent protests harm the country and how citizens earn their living. She remembered shops being robbed and damaged during...
The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission recently removed more than 25,000 dead people from the voter's list. The Commission wants a clean voting record that shows the real number of current voters. Acting Chief Elections Officer Simbarashe Tongayi shared this news through the Government Gazette last Friday. The Commission always removes deceased voters whenever it receives updated death records from the Registrar-General.
The official notice explained how this process works according to the Electoral Act sections 33(4) and 27(1). ZEC believes these listed individuals died but allows for mistakes. Anyone who finds their name wrongly included can file an objection. These appeals must reach the ZEC headquarters at Mahachi Quantum in Harare or...
Police arrested a Tanzanian man who tried to sneak crystal meth worth almost $1 million into Zimbabwe. Suleiman Amour, age 44, faced charges after officers stopped the truck carrying him. Two other people escaped from the same vehicle - these accomplices remain missing today.
Amour went before Regional Magistrate Mrs Sibongile Marondedze at Western Commonage last Friday. His trial hasn't happened yet because the court needs someone who speaks Kiswahili. They rescheduled everything for April 7, when a translator can help.
Prosecutor Milton Moyo explained that Amour entered Zimbabwe through Mozambique. He planned to travel onward to South Africa with his drug shipment. Police officers from Nkulumane Station caught him at a roadblock...
People living near the Gwayi River in Ward 26 of Lupane District need better services. They want clinics, roads, and bridges from the government. They also face dangers from wild animals that hurt their farms and safety. The problems keep growing worse for these rural families.
Sick villagers must travel far to reach Lupane Clinic. During the rain season, flooded rivers block the path completely. Pregnant women often deliver babies at home because they cannot cross. Broken bridges separate these villages from Lupane Centre, the main town in Matabeleland North Province.
The hardest hit places include Zikungwa, Masungamala, Hobho, and Mahlabathini villages. These homes sit close to Hwange National Park. Lions from the park have killed...
