A Zimbabwe women lobby group is encouraging women in the country to participate in politics as the world commemorates 16 days of activism against gender-based violence to ensure parity democracy and equal representation of women and men in critical decision-making positions.
Women’s equal participation in political life plays a key role in the general advancement of women.

Nigeria, always willing to lead Africa regionally and internationally, has criticised the UK and other countries' travel restrictions on Southern Africa, including Zimbabwe, amid fears over the Covid-19 Omicron variant associated with the region as "apartheid travel" measures. Image
"What is expected is a global approach, not selective," Sarafa Tunji Isola, Nigeria's high commissioner to the UK, told the BBC today.
"The travel ban is apartheid in the sense that we are not dealing with an endemic," Mr Isola told the Today programme. "We are dealing with a pandemic. Whenever we have a challenge there must be collaboration."

#MunatsiDeathLatest
An incendiary phosphorus grenade which ignites and explodes when hurled, emitting fire and intense heat that burns fiercely, was used to destroy banker Doug Munatsi's home after his immobilisation, ravaging his respiratory system - death, security sources say.
This is based on an ongoing investigation by The NewsHawks which has spoken to relatives, friends and security sources, as well as government officials, who have shed light on the mysterious and horrific death of the prominent banker who died last week at his Harare penthouse.
A phosphorus grenade produces fierce heat and fire through chemical reaction of a flammable substance. It explodes into an intense fire, inflicts excruciating burns, sometimes to the bone, while causing severe respiratory damage, shock and organ failure.

"Kana wakambopepa murwere unoziva kuti mashambanzou ndiyo nguva inosimuka denda zvakaipisisa. Kunobata nguva dzerunyanhiriri wakaipa anenge ari pakupota-pota. Vaya vetsero nemapere vanenge vovhimira kuenda kuti vasayedzerwe vasina kudzimba. Ndiwaya mashambanzou mukai tinamate."
These were Zimbabwean human rights activist Dewa Mavhinga's last words written in deep Shona on social media before his death yesterday.
Those who know the language well and its cultural context say the words are cryptic and rather disturbing. Find below an English translation.
Dewa's last social media post:
"If you have ever taken care of the sick, you know very well that early morning hours is the time illness deteriorates and is at its devastating best. That's the time the evil-doers operate, and are at their most effective.

Prominent Zimbabwean lawyer and human rights activist Dewa Mavhinga, who was Southern African director for Human Rights Watch, has died of Covid-19, his close friends have confirmed to The NewsHawks.

Before joining Human Rights Watch, Mavhinga worked as regional coordinator for Crisis in Zimbabwe Coalition based in Johannesburg. In 2012 Mavhinga with Dr Pedzisai Ruhanya and others co-founded Zimbabwe Democracy Institute, a public policy research think-tank based in Harare.
Mavhinga was active, vigorous and fearless on human rights issues.
He featured prominently in the media discussing the Zimbabwe situation and other issues in the region.
With him, it was always a no holds barred engagement on critical issues. Even under pressure, he was bold.

As more details surrounding the mysterious death of President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s key ally Doug Munatsi surface, it has emerged that his body was found without nails.
Denailing is the extraction of the nails from the fingers and toes as a method of torture using pliers or heat.
Mnangagwa said yesterday that Munatsi, who was Zimbabwe Investment Development Agency chief executive, died in "unclear circumstances".
Commonly referred to as denailing, the removal of tore and fingernails using pliers, heat, or even a wire or shard of wood inserted under the nail has been a simple but effective method of torture throughout history.
