Police across Zimbabwe started seizing cars without license plates. They plan to keep these vehicles until their owners complete the proper paperwork. The rules apply to every car on the road—family cars, business vehicles, and even government cars must have the correct plates. Police warned drivers that driving without proper registration breaks the Vehicle Registration and Licensing Act.
Law enforcement discovered many cars change hands without legal ownership transfers. Some vehicles sell five or seven times but still list the first buyer as the owner. This creates big problems when these cars appear in crimes or traffic violations. Police struggle to find who actually drives the car during these incidents. Officers promise to...
Zimbabwe brought in outside experts to check how well top officials and Cabinet ministers did their jobs. In 2021, the government started making ministers, permanent secretaries, local leaders, and public company bosses sign performance contracts. This plan aimed to speed up Vision 2030's goal of creating a modern, prosperous, and industrial country within five years.
Officials are evaluated every three months, every six months, and yearly. The government hired an independent consulting company to ensure the process stayed fair and focused on results. After each year ends, evaluators create a full report for President ED Mnangagwa and his entire Cabinet. This report shows what each department accomplished and ranks officials from best...
Twelve top pastors quit the United Methodist Church because they say it stopped defending good morals and Christian values. Reverend Forbes Matonga said these pastors disagreed when the church changed its mind about homosexuality. The global church voted 692 to 51 to remove words that called homosexuality wrong, but Zimbabwe church members fought against this change.
Matonga said the church has gone all-in on accepting homosexuality. He and 12 church leaders quit right away. According to him, the Bible clearly says homosexuality is wrong in both the Old and New Testaments. He believes wrong is wrong everywhere - something cannot be bad in Africa but fine in America under the same church rules.
The split shows big fights inside the...
Reports say top businessman Kudakwashe Tagwirei might become Zimbabwe's next Vice President instead of Costantino Chiwenga. Many believe Tagwirei is being prepared to take over from President Emmerson Mnangagwa down the road. This marks a big change in Zimbabwe politics as people wonder who will lead the country next.
People close to the Zanu PF party say Tagwirei has gained lots of power behind closed doors. The Zanu PF leaders in Masvingo recently asked higher-ups to put him on their Central Committee. Experts think this helps him climb the party ladder before jumping to bigger jobs. Robson Mavhenyengwa, who runs Zanu PF in Masvingo, confirmed they want Tagwirei because he helps both the party and country.
Tagwirei became important...
Zanu PF bosses in Masvingo asked higher-ups to let businessman Kudakwashe Tagwirei join their Central Committee. They also want former Bikita South lawmaker Josiah Sithole added. Robson Mavhenyengwa, who runs Zanu PF in Masvingo, talked straight with TellZim News about this plan and thinks party leaders will say yes.
The request needs approval from the big shots at headquarters before anything happens. Word has it that Secretary-General Obert Mpofu already likes the idea. They still need to chat with national chairperson Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri before making it official. This change might shake up Masvingo politics and beef up the ruling party's power in that area.
Tagwirei grew up in Gutu and has become a top Zimbabwe businessman...
Zimbabwe's ICT Minister Tatenda Mavetera has fired back at claims about child exploitation under her leadership. She never named activist Blessed Geza directly but stood firm on her ministry's dedication to child protection. Following an ICT expo in Bindura, Mavetera took to social media to highlight government efforts against online exploitation. Her powerful statements surprised many citizens and sparked major discussions nationwide.
Geza, a war veteran and activist, had criticized the government for failing to shield children from digital dangers. He demanded stronger regulations and greater accountability for problems in the tech sector. The public remains divided—some support Geza's concerns, while others see Mavetera's response...
A Harare court found five members of the Citizens Coalition for Change guilty on Friday. The magistrate convicted former lawmakers Amos Chibaya and Costa Machingauta plus three activists - Monica Mukwands, Aletta Viremai, and Lancelot Tungwarara. They faced charges related to an unauthorized meeting held at Machingauta's residence last year. The judge let them remain free until Monday when she'll announce their punishment.
Twenty other people arrested at the same event walked free after the magistrate Sharon Rakafa decided they just happened to be there. The court determined the five guilty parties had organized a political assembly and showed up wearing CCC gear. According to trial evidence, Tungwarara created and shared invitations...
South Africa sent Ebrahim Rasool home after he served as their ambassador to America. He told the BBC that racism exists in the Trump team - pretty clear to see. Last week, Marco Rubio kicked him out of America, calling him a race-baiter who hates the country. This happened because Rasool said Trump tries to make white people feel like victims as a signal to supporters.
The BBC asked if Trump runs a racist government. Rasool answered that you can tell without naming names. He added that when wood has a hinge, you start thinking it might be a door. Rasool pointed to how they treat migrants and foreign students who back Palestine. He also said that Trump brings together far-right groups.
Trump officials say they reject claims about...
Zimasco has sent letters to legal authorities about two Harare lawyers plus a High Court judge. The company believes these people helped businessman Shepherd Tundiya try to steal control of their mining business. CEO John Musekiwa wrote on March 26 that these court officials acted unethically, making the legal system look bad.
A recent High Court order let Avim Investments take over the big mining company. Judge Joel Mambara made this ruling, but people noticed something fishy - the order targeted "Sinosteel Zimasco," not the actual company "Zimasco." A search through company records proved these were different businesses.
The mining company complained that despite this clear mistake, Tundiya teamed up with lawyer Wilson Manase and...
