IN another move to further disempower the MDC Alliance led by Nelson Chamisa, the Thokozani Khupe-led MDC-T yesterday removed Hwange Central MP Daniel Molokele from the chairmanship of the Parliamentary Portfolio Committee on Higher and Tertiary Education.

Speaker of the National Assembly Jacob Mudenda yesterday announced that Molokele had been removed and replaced by Lindiwe Maphosa, who crossed over to the MDC-T.

Maphosa came into Parliament in 2018 through a proportional representation (PR) seat under the MDC Alliance party list.

The other replacements that were made to chairmanship of committees were, however, of MPs that were recalled from Parliament recently.
In his announcement, Mudenda said: “The MDC-T has nominated the following to be chairpersons of committees; Southerton MP Peter Moyo will take over from former Kuwadzana MP Chalton Hwende as chairperson of the Information Communication Technology Portfolio Committee. Yvonne Musarurwa (MDC-T) is now the new chairperson of the Environment Portfolio Committee and will replace former PR MP Concillia Chinanzvavana (MDC Alliance). Molokele will be replaced by Maphosa.”

Some of the recalled committee chairpersons like Binga North MP Prince Dubeko Sibanda (former chairperson of the Media and Information Portfolio Committee, Hwende, Molokele and Chinanzvavana were very vocal in the committees.

Speaker of the National Assembly Jacob Mudenda yesterday announced that Molokele had been removed and replaced by Lindiwe Maphosa, who crossed over to the MDC-T.

Asbestos Exposure Lawyer: What Workers And Families Should Know

Asbestos was widely used in construction, insulation, shipyards, factories, power plants, automotive products, and military settings. Years later, exposure may lead to mesothelioma, lung cancer, or asbestosis. An asbestos exposure lawyer helps victims seek compensation.

People at risk may include construction workers, electricians, plumbers, mechanics, shipyard workers, factory workers, military veterans, and family members exposed through asbestos fibers carried home on clothing.

Asbestos claims require proof of exposure. A lawyer may review work history, job sites, product records, union documents, and company records.

Many asbestos-related diseases appear decades after exposure. This makes legal investigation important because victims may not remember every product or location involved.

Compensation may help with treatment, lost income, pain and suffering, and family support.

If asbestos exposure caused illness, victims may have legal rights even if the exposure happened many years ago.

Cybersecurity Software For Small Business: What To Look For

Small businesses are major targets for cyberattacks. Hackers know that many small companies do not have large IT teams, advanced security tools, or strong employee training. One successful attack can cause data loss, downtime, legal costs, and customer trust problems.

Cybersecurity software helps protect business devices, data, email, networks, and users from threats such as malware, ransomware, phishing, and unauthorized access.

Small businesses should start with endpoint protection. This protects laptops, desktops, and servers from viruses, suspicious behavior, and malicious files.

Email security is also important because many attacks begin with phishing emails. A good security solution can help block dangerous links, fake login pages, and infected attachments.

Ransomware protection is another key feature. Ransomware locks business files and demands payment. Strong cybersecurity software may detect unusual file activity and stop the attack before major damage occurs.

Businesses should also use multi-factor authentication. This adds another layer of protection beyond passwords. Even if a password is stolen, attackers may not be able to access the account without the second verification step.

Cloud backup is another important part of cybersecurity. If files are deleted, encrypted, or corrupted, backups can help restore operations.

When choosing cybersecurity software, look for easy management, automatic updates, threat detection, reporting, support, and compatibility with your devices.

Small businesses should also train employees. Software helps, but employees must know how to spot suspicious emails, avoid unsafe downloads, and use strong passwords.

Cybersecurity is not optional anymore. A single cyberattack can cost more than prevention. The right software can help small businesses protect their data, customers, and reputation.
