Govt Fights to Keep Kids Safe Online

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 as proof the government intends to tackle these challenges. Both sides continue to argue their points passionately.

During her Bindura appearance, Mavetera described several programs aimed at boosting digital education and internet security. She emphasized how the government partners with various organizations to build safer online spaces for young users. Public reactions have split between those who think her answer addressed key issues and those who believe she sidestepped the real problems.

Zimbabweans continue to monitor whether Mavetera will respond directly to Geza's accusations or introduce fresh policies for child protection online. This debate raises essential questions about youth safety in digital environments. Many citizens expect concrete actions rather than empty promises from government officials on this critical matter.
