MANCHESTER, UK – Neighbours of 29-year-old Zvidzai Mutimutema were left horrified after police discovered he had turned his small flat into a full-scale unlicensed butchery. According to UK authorities, the operation came to light after residents in the building complained for weeks about a “strong smell of raw meat” coming from his unit. When environmental health officers raided the apartment, they found freezers crammed with unlabelled meat, blood-stained chopping boards, and a table set up for “customers.” Sources say Zvidzai was allegedly selling beef, goat, and chicken cuts to the local community at “discount prices,” claiming the meat was “fresher than anything in the supermarkets.” Social media in Manchester’s Zimb

Good day. Visitation–Makumbi High School says they were told the price of a school bus is US$220,000. Can someone confirm if this is correct?Personally I think SDA's should focus on improving critical infrastructure at schools such as laboratories, libraries, sports fields, workshops etc. What will a student benefit from an expensive bus ?? As parents we should remind these silly headmasters that Zimsec or Cambridge doesn't award marks to schools with luxurious buses Vabereki vakagara pasi vakawirirana naHeadmaster zveBhazi iroro misoro yavoWhy does a school need to procure a bus that adds no value to the school.

DEAR THEMBA GORIMBO || Your conduct is deeply unacceptable for someone who claims to be representing Zimbabwe on the world stage, particularly in the United States of America. As a public figure and role model, your actions carry weight far beyond your personal circle. What example are you setting for the young Zimbabwean youths who look up to you? What message are you sending to a nation that takes pride in its ambassadors abroad? What image are you painting of Zimbabwe to the international community?Furthermore, such cussing insults directed at our President are wholly unacceptable and cannot be condoned under any circumstances. The Office of the President is a symbol of our nation’s unity, sovereignty, and dignity.
