                            Minister Kazembe Hosia Mviringi   The race for the ZANU PF Mashonaland Central Provincial elections took a decisive turn yesterday as one of the ‘disqualified’ candidates, Mr James Makamba endorsed the incumbent Chairperson Kazembe Kazembe for the Provincial Chairmanship.   Makamba, who had earlier taken a neutral position, announcing at an earlier presser that he had neither been approached nor taken a position to support any candidate, emerged as the kingmaker, pulling a dramatic somersault to come out strongly in support of the Home Affairs Minister for the party Provincial Chairman.   In support remarks yesterday at a campaign rally in the heart of Mashonaland Central, at Bindura town, Makamba introduced a new slogan in support of his former rival, ‘Zembera pana Kazembe’ (lean on Kazembe for development).   He described Kazembe as a seasoned and polished politician w...

Winky D to launch controversial album

Winky D to launch Controversial Album . By Hosia Mviringi Thur, 26 December 2019 Popular Zimbabwean Zimdancehall musician Wallace Chirumiko known as Winky D in music circles is set to launch a highly controversial album on the 31st of December 2019 at the HICC. The album is entitled Njema which is a Shona name for Police handcuffs.This album consists of six tracks which are all loaded with Political lyrics some of which are too explicit to be ignored while others are subtle. Of concern is the fact that Winky's musical lyrics have been consistently viewed and interpreted as deliberately coined to incite the public to resist and rise up against lawful authority in Zimbabwe. This album is no different. This writer had the priviledge of listening to one track entitled Canaan.In this track Chirumiko resembles that Citizen who does not recognise the leadership of his country and thus seeks to inculcate that attitude of resistence into the minds of others. He is also apparen...
What is Dialogue if it can not produce a GNU ? Myth demistified ..

As a result desperate solutions have been profered which include among other things Dialogue and a GNU between ZANU PF and the MDC. But question is is dialogue necessary if it can't produce  GNU ? Is a GNU possible under the present circumstances ? Firstly a GNU is not legally possible under the current circumstances because we have a duly elected Parliament with one Party commanding a 2/3 majority.Under such circumstances the Constitution does not provide for an GNU.It will take a very cumbersome process of amending the Constitution first and to establish a Global Political Agreement which may culminate in serious negotiations between political Parties. But such a process can be a slippery slope because it can be successf...
