Zimbabwe power plants make a lot more electricity these days thanks to extra water from the Zambezi River Authority and better output at the Hwange Power Station. This helps farmers grow winter wheat and boosts the entire economy. The Authority handles the water for both Zimbabwe and Zambia.
After water levels rose, power created at Kariba jumped from 185 megawatts to 485 megawatts. The 2024/2025 rainy season brought plenty of rainfall, much more than expected. By the end of last week, the country produced over 1,500 megawatts of electricity. Friday saw peak production hit 1,622 megawatts. Energy Minister July Moyo believes power will keep increasing during the upcoming months.
Both Zimbabwe and Zambia received 27 billion cubic meters...

Muhammadu Sanusi II, Kano's Emir, firmly rejected claims he broke rules against Sallah durbar celebrations. He explained that his trip simply went from Eid prayers back home, nothing more.

According to him, these vigilante groups caught several attackers and brought them to the police. When these same guards headed back, they faced more violence, resulting in a death. The Emir believes someone wants to manufacture conflict where peace exists.

JAMB wants students who applied for 2024 Direct Entry with IJMB or JUPEB scores marked "awaiting results" to act fast. Once their results come out, students must head to any approved CBT center right away to upload them. JAMB spokesperson Fabian Benjamin made this clear Sunday in Abuja, stressing that students who miss this step cannot be considered for admission this year.
Many applicants registered for Direct Entry using the "awaiting results" option for IJMB and JUPEB programs but never updated their profiles once they received their final scores. Benjamin explained that JAMB follows the same rule for both DE and UTME students - nobody enters college with pending test results. Any application still showing "awaiting results" status...

Zimbabwe police officers found $50 in their bank accounts without any warning just before big protests were planned against President Mnangagwa next Monday. Nobody explained where this money came from or why they received it. Many believe wealthy businessmen close to Mnangagwa sent the cash, including well-known figures Wicknell Chivhayo and Kuda Tagwirei. These powerful money men, nicknamed "Zvigananda," often use their cash to help keep the current leaders in control.
People watching this situation think these payments aim to keep police officers loyal to Mnangagwa when citizens march against him. The police and army have long helped shut down protests from anyone who disagrees with the government. Nobody from the government has...
Zimbabwe faces growing unrest as President Mnangagwa plans to extend his leadership beyond his second term, which ends in 2028. Former liberation fighters have called for nationwide protests tomorrow to remove him from office. These veterans want Deputy President Constantino Chiwenga to take charge, saying Mnangagwa has failed to fix the country's broken economy.
The current situation looks very similar to what happened in 2017 when Robert Mugabe lost power. Back then, Chiwenga led that change as the head of the military. Professor Ricky Mukonza from TUT explains that anyone with military connections holds real power in Zimbabwe.
Mukonza points out that Deputy President Chiwenga ran the army for many years and maintains strong...
Rotimi Amaechi claims that President Tinubu declared an emergency in Rivers State just to scare governors who might run against him in 2027. The former Rivers boss told foreign reporters that money-sharing problems started the entire mess between ex-governor Wike and current leader Fubara. He believes Tinubu broke constitutional rules with his actions against the state government.
Amaechi wants PDP governors to fight back through the courts immediately. He also thinks people across Nigeria should protest what he calls an illegal suspension. "They're simply arguing about how to split cash," Amaechi said about Wike and Fubara. The President acted completely outside what our constitution allows."
The transportation minister from the past...
