The government of Zimbabwe is working hard to ensure that it spends taxpayer money wisely. It has implemented new rules to prevent corruption and supplier overcharging.
Some government officials were dishonest in the past. They took bribes or wasted money. But President Mnangagwa has cracked down on this behavior. Many corrupt officials have been caught and punished.
However, there are still problems with how the government buys goods and services. Some suppliers charge very high prices. They may work together to keep prices high, even if they are not officially in a partnership.
The government is trying to fix this. The Finance Ministry now checks each contract to ensure a fair price and compares it to prices in other markets. The...
Zimbabwe's dams are filling up thanks to recent rains. The country's dam levels have risen to 59.1% on average, up 1.59% since the end of December.
ZINWA shared the good news in a statement. Many dams across Zimbabwe are seeing more water, including Bubi Lupane, Manyame, and Mutirikwi.
But the water levels are still lower than last year. At this time in 2024, dams were 78% full on average. ZINWA wants people to keep saving water. They should use it wisely.
People who take water from dams must follow the rules and have a water use agreement. This is especially true for farmers watering their crops.
The recent rains are helping Zimbabwe's water supply. But everyone needs to do their part to conserve this precious resource. By using...

The Ministry of Health is investigating a decision by the Harare City Council. The council allowed a cemetery to be built on top of a major water pipeline, which has raised fears that the water could get dirty.
Not long ago, the city dumped sewage into a river that flows into Lake Chivero, from which the city gets a lot of its water. This hurts the environment and the health of people and animals.
The council gave a permit for a private cemetery to be built near the Prince Edward water treatment plant. People are worried that chemicals from dead bodies and coffins could leak into the water if there is a break in the pipeline. This would make the water unsafe to drink.
The Health Ministry sent a team to check out the situation. They...

There are worries about how Uganda's wildlife agency is picking a new leader. Some people think the process is not fair or honest.
The current boss, Sam Mwandha, will leave his job soon. The wildlife agency put an ad in the newspapers to find someone new. But there might be some problems with how they are doing it.
Usually, the person picked to lead the agency needs to have certain degrees, like in science or the environment. But this time, the agency changed what they wanted. Some people think they did this to help one person get the job.
Out of 27 applicants, the agency only interviewed two. Those two might not have the right skills to do the job well. The wildlife agency has many challenges, like animals and people fighting over...
Muhydin Kakooza Sanya, a supporter of the opposition party National Unity Platform (NUP), has ended an agreement with the government. This agreement helped get him out of prison. He had been pardoned by President Museveni for charges of treachery and having illegal ammunition.
On Saturday in Kampala, Sanya spoke to reporters. He said he pleaded guilty to crimes he did not commit out of desperation to get free after suffering a lot in jail.
Sanya said the agreement has led to ongoing harassment from security agents. They keep calling him and telling him to take them to where he hid guns and tanks. But Sanya says he never had any of those things.
The president pardoned Sanya and 18 others in November 2024. They had pleaded guilty in a...
