After 7 years ZanuPf Claims Its Investigating Itai Dzamara’s Abduction, President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s regime claims it is seized with investigations to determine the whereabouts of political activist Itai Dzamara who was abducted nearly seven years ago.

Ziyambi said investigations were still going on. “Regarding compliance with a High Court order on the di
I am not a politician and I don’t support any political party but I stand with the poor masses of Zimbabwe who do not have access to privileges like those who have become puppets of zanu pf overnight because of hunger and starvation . They will be used and thrown away very soon after the regime is done with them and have rendered them useless . Let me say this on behalf of those who are tired of the brutality , evil governance , poor living standards and the deteriorating economy of Zimbabwe but can’t say a word because of fear . The Mugabe regime is not different from the Mnangagwa regime . Firstly there is no sane president who can appoint false prophets to be part of his cabinet or to be anywhere close to the government offices , let alone appointing

Embattled MDC-T vice president Thokozani Khupe on Friday announced that her boss Douglas Mwonzora broke away from the party after he indicated that his outfit was going to campaign in the upcoming by-elections under the name MDC Alliance used by Nelson Chamisa. Addressing her supporters in Bulawayo, Khupe announced that Mwonzora escaped from the opposition party and formed a splinter group. She also accused the party leader of violating the organisation’s constitution by appointing a second vice president. Khupe said the 2020 extraordinary congress that installed Mwonzora as president was “bogus” and “illegitimate” because it did not form a quorum. “Mwonzora has on times without numbers violated the constitution of the party during his tenure as
Norton Member of Parliament Temba Mliswa has alleged that ZANU PF Spokesperson Ambassador Christopher Mutsvangwa is plotting to become the President of the country and entrench his wife as the Vice President. Speaking during a wide-ranging interview with journalist Lance Guma on Thursday, Mliswa said, "Chris Mutsvangwa is a power-hungry person who is plotting to become the President of the country. His plan is that he gets the current Vice President General Constantino Chiwenga removed and get himself enthroned. He also wants the Chairman Oppah Muchinguri removed from her position and her wife to step into her shoes so that she becomes the most powerful woman in Manicaland. This will allow him to make sure that when he takes over after the current President (Emmerson
GOLD buyer, Better Brands Jewellery (BBJ), has reached a new milestone after delivering more than seven tonnes to the government last year, in a haul worth nearly US$ 460 million. The total deliveries to Fidelity Printers and Refiners (FPR) was 10 times more than BBJ’s total haul in 2020, where it delivered 800kg of the precious mineral. BBJ director and chairperson of the Gold Buyers Association (GBA), Pedzisai “Scott” Sakupwanya said the record deliveries for 2021 were a testament of small-scale miners’ pulling power in local gold production. “In 2020, our deliveries were 800kg. We increased that nearly tenfold in just one year. What this tell you is that as indigenous people, were have the capacity to contribute significantly to the nati
The Harare magistrates’ court today heard that ZBC Presenter, Rutendo Makuti fabricated rape charges from her frustration that the Goodness and Mercy Ministries prophet T Freddy was no longer intrested in the relationship. In an audio played in court by the prophet’s defence counsel, Makuti confessed that she got angry and forced her way to Goodness and Mercy Ministries church when their relationship started fading. In the audio Makuti said she was forced to come up with allegations because the man of God was no longer showing any intrest in the relationship.

The court also he
The court case involving Goodness and Mercy Ministries church leader, Tapiwa Freddy and ZBC Radio Zimbabwe presenter Rutendo Makuti has taken a new twist after it emerged that she consented to the sexual act and seduced the man of God by sending him nude pictures.

Douglas Mwonzora’s MDC-T has accused former cabinet Minister Jonathan Moyo of pushing the arrest of the opposition party’s leaders “using social media posts that are devoid of truth.” This comes after Moyo tweeted that Gweru mayor Josiah Makombe (MDC-T) reported Mwonzora and party secretary-general Paurina Mpariwa to the police for lying under oath in a case before the Bulawayo High Court. Through his lawyer Nqobani Sithole, Makombe said Mwonzora and Mpariwa jointly lied before the High Court where the MDC-T leaders claimed they had not recalled him from office. Makombe together with Khupe and Chitungwiza mayor Lovemore Maiko, recently, filed a joint urgent application at the Bulawayo High Court seeking an interdict to stop their impending recalls from the op
