Bulawayo police spokesperson Inspector Nomalanga Msebele told residents to lock down their houses before heading out for holiday trips because criminals scroll social media looking for posts about vacation plans. She said thieves watch platforms waiting for people to announce they left town, and posting travel details basically hands over your address to robbery crews. Police Commissioner Jealousy Nyabasa from Matabeleland North launched a festive season safety campaign in Hwange and warned about spikes in theft, domestic violence, and road crashes when travel picks up.

Msebele suggested getting neighbors to check on empty properties and stopping newspaper deliveries that pile up as a signal nobody is home. Nyabasa called out how criminals disguise themselves as bus terminal touts to rob travelers carrying cash, and he reminded drivers not to overload vehicles or attempt river crossings during floods. Both officers said cops will increase patrols around residential zones and highways, but communities need to stay alert instead of making themselves easy targets.
