WHAT IS GOVT DOING TO PUNISH INTERNET ABUSERS?

HON. SEN. ALICE DUBE: I will direct my question to the Leader of the House. What is the Government doing to ensure and enforce cybersecurity and also punish those abusing the internet? #CyberLawsZW @ComradeFatsooo @misazimbabwe
MINISTER MUTSVANGWA: I would like to thank Hon. Sen. Dube for that very important question. We know the havoc which is caused by fake news on social media among families, communities and countries. #CyberLawsZW @misazimbabwe @ComradeFatsooo @ZLHRLawyers @VoluntaryMedia @ZOCCzw
MINISTER MUTSVANGWA: The Government of Zimbabwe, through its Ministry of Information Communication Technology, Postal and Courier Services has come up with a Cyber Bill which is actually going through Parliament now and we think it will soon be enacted. #CyberLawsZW @ZwContent
MINISTER MUTSVANGWA: This is to deal with those people so that anybody who gets on social media should be accountable and can be followed for what they would have written on social media and be dealt with if it is causing havoc and disharmony among our people. Thank you.

PRISCA MUPFUMIRA: CORRUPTION IS NOT ENDING BECAUSE OF CATCH AND RELEASE

PRISCA MUPFUMIRA: Thank you, Hon. President for giving me this opportunity to debate on corruption. Corruption is a disease, a cancer or a pandemic that has spread the world over. Zimbabwe is also included. Image
PRISCA MUPFUMIRA: I would like to thank Sen. Muzenda for bringing up such a very good motion. I also like to appreciate contributions that have come up. Corruption indeed starts from an individual, be it at household level, it may spread to the local community& to national level.
PRISCA MUPFUMIRA: The problem why we are not properly handling corruption is that you hear the issue of catch and release. You hear that people have been arrested because of corruption, but later you hear that they are released. @ComradeFatsooo @ZACConline @MunyaBloggo @kubatana

SENATOR NDLOVU: EVEN AT PARLIAMENT THERE IS CORRUPTION TO GET FUEL COUPONS

HON. SEN. NDLOVU: Thank you Mr President Sir, for giving me this opportunity to talk about corruption.
SENATOR NDLOVU: As the Chief said, it is very difficult for corruption to end because the only thing left in Zimbabwe is that every citizen will corrupt him/herself. This issue of corruption is never-ending because when you want to take the issue of corruption to higher offices,
SENATOR NDLOVU: you realise that is where it is starting from. What the Chief said is all true. Sometimes when travelling and you get to a roadblock the police officer will not know the person driving the vehicle but they will demand to check the vehicle, @PoliceZimbabwe

CHIEF NHEMA: REPORT ON FIGHTING CORRUPTION & RESTORING TRUST IN GOVT

HON. SEN. CHIEF NHEMA: I would like to reiterate a few words on this motion that was brought up by Hon. Sen. Muzenda. I am pained very much by corruption. In my view, we may not be able to end corruption.
CHIEF NHEMA: Why do I say so? We see corruption happening everyday but our problem is; if I am to report that I saw Senator Muzenda being involved in corruption, I become the bad person.
CHIEF NHEMA: Be it from legislation, instead of ensuring that those people are charged, they end up being released as well. I end up choosing to ignore because there is nothing I can do.

SENATOR MORGEN KOMICHI: REPORT ON FIGHTING CORRUPTION & RESTORING TRUST IN GOVT

HON. SEN. KOMICHI: I would like to thank Senator Muzenda for raising this important motion on corruption. It is true that corruption destroys people. #OpenCovidContracts
HON. KOMICHI: One or two people may be involved in this corruption but the effect to the whole country is that its very destructive especially in Govt. The Min of Finance disburses funds for example to roads then that money does not get there but is squandered by 2 or 3 people.
HON. KOMICHI: If we look at the state of the roads right now, it is killing the citizenry. Corruption goes all the way. We hear right now in some country the President fired his Minister because he squandered covid funds.

IF I ALLOW PEOPLE TO MARRY WITHOUT LOBOLA I WILL CEASE TO BE A TONGA TRIBE CHIEF

HON. SEN. CHIEF SIANSALI: Thank you for protecting me and allowing me to highlight my own thinking.
CHIEF SIANSALI: Madam Chair, the discourse that I am bringing in the discourse that has been debated already is that I as Chief Siansali coming from Binga district and Tonga in tribe will cease to be a chief if I allow parties to marry without lobola being paid.
CHIEF SIANSALI: It is my duty as a chief to make sure that lobola is paid and if this law being mooted will allow people in my area, which I may say my people, to marry under the customary law, which means the Tonga custom; you cannot talk about it without roora,
