Bureaucrats finally decided swamps are not free real estate for illegal condos. Environment Minister Evelyn Ndlovu legally protected twenty wetlands throughout Manicaland to stop rampant construction and farming from destroying the water table. This official status hopefully halts the destruction caused whenever someone wants quick cash through unauthorized mining or building.
Most designated zones sit inside Mutare City, where urban sprawl consumed everything green. The list features specific locations like Acid Chikanga and Cecil Kop alongside Federation and Fair Bridge Park. Officials also flagged Florida Extension and Gimboki South to keep excavators away from sensitive ecological grounds.
Rural areas like Nyachowa Falls and...
EcoCash users claim their digital wallets are leaking money while customer support does absolutely nothing. A viral audio recording sparked panic after an unidentified woman alleged her funds vanished overnight without permission. Residents in Mutare echoed these nightmares, reporting unauthorized transfers that the company apparently refuses to reverse.
The mobile platform denies any system breach, insisting its infrastructure remains secure. They blasted the viral claims as misinformation and blamed customers for falling for scams involving shared PINs. Police Commissioner Paul Nyathi stated officers are currently verifying complaints, but refused to confirm specific cases just yet.
Victims like Metilia Shumba reportedly lost...
Three artists built a massive statue worshipping a controversial rich guy who hands out free cars. Sculptors Callangan Makuni, Duncan Masanga, and Americk Kumbiri finished this giant tribute to Wicknell Chivayo in Chitungwiza. The trio claimed this wealthy philanthropist acts as a shining example for local youth in sports and music.
Masanga stated that this project honors the power of community service while aligning with national development goals. He hinted that more surprises await the public because this piece only represents the first phase of recognizing figures who supposedly aid the economy.
Chivayo grew up in the same town and belongs to an Apostolic sect where he focuses heavily on faith-based charity. He famously dropped...
Smugglers got busted trying to drag a busload of unaccompanied minors across the river. South African border agents intercepted over twenty kids near the Limpopo waterway around Beitbridge during an alleged trafficking run. Authorities found children aged five to seventeen with ten adults, yet only one adult actually held parental rights.
Commissioner Michael Masiapato highlighted massive red flags regarding child exploitation and legal violations. Officials handed the group over to social services to figure out why these minors moved without guardians. The agency vowed to keep hammering these joint operations to stop vulnerable people from getting treated like cargo.
This bust follows a massive cleanup where Zimbabwe immigration...
Cattle owners finally caught a break from the tick apocalypse thanks to mandatory chemical baths. The Directorate of Veterinary Services confirmed that persistent vaccination drives effectively slowed the spread of Theileriosis. Chief Director Pious Makaya noted infection rates remain stable but warned farmers must continue dipping livestock to prevent financial ruin.
Authorities deployed the Integrated Tick and Tick-Borne Disease Control Strategy to monitor how parasites resist acaricide chemicals. Makaya explained that tracking evolutionary patterns helps officials adjust formulas before treatments fail completely. He cautioned that infections typically spike later during wet months, making consistent compliance non-negotiable.

Stealing rent money from college kids is apparently a lucrative side hustle. Authorities hauled Tatenda Nyamuturira into court for supposedly pocketing thirty thousand dollars meant for housing fees. Prosecutors claim he and a missing partner swindled the cash while managing Varsity Heights accommodations for Chinhoyi University of Technology learners.
The state alleges Nyamuturira worked alongside Aldrich Muchipisi to intercept payments instead of placing funds inside the correct ZB Bank account. They reportedly instructed sub-wardens to funnel cash directly into their private EcoCash wallets rather than sending assets to the actual property owner.
An internal audit eventually exposed the grift when numbers failed to add up...
The state finally realized that leaving crash victims broken constitutes bad policy. Transport authorities launched public talks regarding fresh legislation designed to cover medical bills for people injured on highways. Permanent Secretary Joy Makumbe started this tour in Marondera before visiting Mutare, Masvingo, and Victoria Falls to explain the Road Accident Fund.
Data indicates a wreck happens every fifteen minutes here, claiming five lives daily. That grim reality forced a shift toward a no-fault system where injured parties get paid without proving liability first. This setup aims to eliminate the massive delays plaguing the current insurance model.
Officials plan to siphon cash from existing third-party insurance premiums to...
Two village leaders died because family members allegedly battled using goblins and spiritual underwear charms. Mutsa Chikuni told Chief Mutasa that her late husband, Custon Mutinhima, perished from a calculated spiritual hit orchestrated specifically via his older brother, Aaron. She insisted local healers confirmed dark magic caused his demise rather than medical issues like acid complications found at the hospital.
Tensions escalated when a prophet named Murenje claimed the clan harbored evil spirits obtained during money rituals, which angered ancestors. Edson Mutinhima piled onto these claims, asserting a healer physically removed strange charms related to spiritual sex practices directly from Aaron's undergarments. He demanded...
A mechanic pleading poverty must finally pay up for his neglected kids' education. Yolanda Matura dragged Henrick Ndau before a magistrate at the Harare Civil Court, demanding he support their three offspring properly. She requested a monthly increase from one hundred to two hundred dollars since the current amount barely covers survival essentials.
Their fourteen-year-old cannot start high school yet because of unpaid bills and requires a specific diet for medical issues. An accumulated debt keeps the ten-year-old behind, while the five-year-old missed early childhood development entirely because funding never materialized.
Ndau argued against paying more, claiming his employment remains unstable and relies on random gigs. He offered...
