1/ I found time to read the SADC observers report after the devastating announcement. I must admit, some of the issues in Mr. Nervous Mumba's report left me very nervous. 2. Three issues, in particular, stood out for me.
1. The issue of exhorbitant candidate registration fees.
2. The delimitation report.
3. The Judges financial incentives.
All these issues were dealt with by our Courts. How did they end up in this report?

1/ I have noted that a lot of Zimbabweans have a number of questions about the Sinopharm vaccine. I have also noticed that there is also a lot of myths l, conspiracies and outright #Fakenews on this vaccine. Let me attempt to address these in this thread. 2/ No Zimbabwean will be used as a guinea pig for the Vaccine #Fact. This vaccine has been proven to be very safe in millions around the World. The safety studies are conducted in Phase 1 of Clinical Trials and any substance that fails those studies never ptogresses

1. I have been following the visit to Karanda Mission Hospital by @NgarivhumeJacob. He witnessed a number of people from all over Zimbabwe who are camping at this Mission Hospital because it is probably the only public health facility with a good reputation around the Country. 2. Zimbabweans owe some gratitude to not only Karanda Mission Hospital but almost every mission hospital around Zimbabwe for their attempts to keep providing services to the poorest Zimbabweans under the most trying and difficult circumstances.

1. I had an interest exchange with some senior Zanu PF leader this week. I had been ignoring their unsolicited DM for weeks until I felt like telling them off so they leave me alone. Sadly I didn't know I could end up having some very interesting discussion. 2. The fellow thought I had some leverage on the MDCA and argued that the continued lack of legitimacy of our electoral system was not only causing serious damage to the Country but also both Zanu PF and MDC.

1/ Back in the 80s I was a member of our village acapela Christian group known as the Voice of Praise. I will narrate how in one night I used my conflict resolution skills to get the group back together but ended up resigning from them on the same night. 2/ Those of us from Nkayi and surrounding areas are familiar with the famous Harmony Sounds and their song "Ukuqala kwesiphetho". Our group sang almost the same songs and was a household name in Silobela, Zhombe and Lower Gwelo areas. I missed out on their many tours.

1/6 Heavily armed gang at a Church Headquarters. This story may have been drowned by many other International news headlines but is very important for us in Southern Africa. A thread. 2/6 This is an internal leadership feud gone wrong as a result of a failed succession planning. This is not new to most Indigenous Churches in this part of the World as evidenced by the Guta Ramwari circus as well as many other Indigenous Churches in Zimbabwe.

1/9 There are certain man who are extremely jealous on behalf of their wive's little sisters. I don't know what kind of mental illness they suffer from.

I was two of my besties one hailing from Ngomahuru, the other from Chegato. Our Ngomahuru guy had a homegirl who worked as a rehab technician at the hospital.

1/12 During my Uni vacation in 1992 I decided to visit my brother who was teaching at a School in Chiwundura that I shall not name. I spent just a week there but this was one very memorable week. I witnessed a lot of drama in just that short week. 2/12 Accommodation. My brother shared a three bed-roomed house with the Senior Master. He was married and stayed with three of his wife's sisters and a brother. My brother used one bedroomed and this large family shared the rest of the house.

1/10 I was asked why I take the abuse of single mothers personally. The simple answer is that I was born of a woman. In ChiKaranga we say musha mukadzi and nherera nde isina amai. In Sindebele we say ozele amantombazana uzele inotho. 2/10 The majority of us male or female who are born of women will all agree that we are where we are because of our mothers. Those of us with children will also all agree that our kids are were they are because of our mothers.

1/ 4There is an interesting development in Zimbabwe where certain individuals have given themselves authority to speak on behalf of Christian Churches. People like Andrew Wutawunashe, Mutendi and Makusha among others now act as official voices for all Christians in Zimbabwe. 2/4 There are as many loose Church associations in Zimbabwe as there are church groupings. The most dominant groupings include the Zimbabwe Catholics, The Zimbabwe Council of Churches, The Evangelicals, The Pentecostals and the so called African Independent Churches.
