Junior High School pupils off to Dubai for week-long educational tour

By Brighton Chiseva

MASVINGO – Junior High school pupils left the country for a week-long educational tour in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
School Director Noah Marima confirmed the development and said 50 leaners will tour five places in the UAE’s capital Dubai.
Marima said apart from offering Cambridge curriculum and other best services, the school decided to take the learners on an international educational tour where they will be exposed to different cultures as well as technological advancement in UAE schools.
“The importance of this trip is that it will expose leaners to different cultures and what the real world is composed of. It also expose leaners to new technology being used in UAE schools so that they can emulate,” said Marima.
“This is our inaugural international trip but we want to expose our leaners to the world as much as we can and we will organize other trips to places like China and Malaysia,” he added.
The learners will visit Marina Dhow Cruise which is a must-visit tourist spot that offers a unique and enchanting experience. The cruise takes visitors along the Dubai Creek, allowing them to witness the stunning skyline of the city while enjoying a delicious dinner. The traditional wooden dhow boat adds to the charm of the experience.
From there they will go to the Dubi City Tour which has Sight Seeing, Atlantis & Zabeel Saray, Al Seef and the Palm photo shoot, Dubai Museum, Jumeirah and Canal, Creek Abra Drive through, Lamer Beach, and Art Gallery among other tour spots.
The learners will also tour Burj Khalifa which is not only the world’s tallest building but has also broken two other impressive records: tallest structure, previously held by the KVLY-TV mast in Blanchard, North Dakota, and tallest free-standing structure, previously held by Toronto’s CN Tower.
Learners will also go for the Desert Safari which provides about 20 minutes of exciting dune bashing along with an electrifying camp journey where they will enjoy quad biking, camel ride and sand skiing.
Lastly they will visit the Zimbabwean Embassy in the UAE.

By Perpetua Murungweni

Masvingo writer Clemency Madyangove (33)’s short ‘Absentia’ was recently selected into the Anthology Book of Men, an international Anthology of African and Latin American Writers Volume 3.
The anthology is a collection of writings that explore complexities of manhood and it features 29 writers from 12 countries.
“The Anthology is a groundbreaking collection of writings that explore the complexities of manhood from diverse perspectives. Featuring 29 writers from 12 countries – Zimbabwe, South Africa, Malawi, Uganda, Nigeria, South Sudan, Kenya (Africa) and Mexico, Honduras, Venezuela, Cuba, Argentina (Latin America), the anthology delves into themes such as man and home, education, workplace, rights, modern male struggles, figurehead, economy, and violence,” said Madyangove.
Madyangove said the anthology is a platform for writers to share their experiences and thoughts on men’s issues and aims at bridging the gap between men and women ideologies.
“The collection comprises 50 poems and 7 prose pieces (essays and fictions) in English and Spanish, and it offers a unique platform for writers to share their experiences and insights on men’s issues. By fostering a spirit of open dialogue and mutual understanding, this anthology aims to bridge the gap between men and women, and between different cultures, to promote a more inclusive and empathetic world,” he said.
The short story Absentia is a blend of themes and elements and it delves into themes such as man and home, education, workplace, rights, modern male struggles, figurehead, economy, and violence.
“Absentia, stands out in its genre due to its unique blend of themes and elements.
“The story reflects on the fears and regrets that we all face when we’re forced to confront our own irrelevance and the darkness of isolation. I hope that ‘Absentia’ resonates with readers and sparks important conversations about the human condition,” Madyangove said.
The writer said experiences of people who left their homes in search of greener pastures and then struggle to cope with changes when they come back home inspired him to pen down the story.
“I drew inspiration for ‘Absentia’ from the experiences of people who have left their homes in search of success, only to return and find that everything has changed. I wanted to explore the themes of identity, belonging, and the human struggle to cope with the passage of time,” he said.
Madyangove also said his own living experiences inspired him and working on this piece was a healing journey for him.
“It was a cathartic and challenging experience. I drew inspiration from my own experiences with feelings of irrelevance and the fear of being left behind. I wanted to explore the complexities of the human psyche and the struggles we face when our sense of purpose is shaken.
“There were many moments of self-doubt and uncertainty, but the story kept calling me back. I’m grateful for the journey, as it allowed me to confront my own fears and emerge with a deeper understanding of myself and the human condition,” said Madyangove.
Madyangove said he is hoping that his story will resonate with the readers and spark meaningful conversations about life.
“With ‘Absentia’ being my first published project, I hope that it resonates with readers and sparks meaningful conversations about the human condition. I hope that the story will connect with people on a deeper level, as it explores universal themes of identity, belonging, and the struggle to find purpose.
“I also hope that it will inspire readers to reflect on their own lives, confront their fears, and find the courage to pursue their passions. “I hope that its going to stand as a reminder that we are not alone in our struggles, and that our stories have the power to connect us, heal us, and transform us,” said Madyangove.

Ngundu-Tanganda road accident claims eight

TellZim Reporter

Eight people perished in a fatal accident that occurred on July 21, 2024 at the 70 kilometer peg along Ngundu-Tanganda road.
Confirming the incident on its official X handle, the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) said a Toyota Probox with nine passengers on board veered off the road and overturned several times throwing out all passengers before landing.
“A Toyota Probox with nine passengers on board veered off the road before ramming onto a bridge pillar and overturned several times throwing passengers out before landing on its right side.
“The bodies of the victims were taken to Chiredzi Hospital mortuary for post mortem while the injured were taken to Collin Saunders Hospital for treatment,” reads the post.
The Ngundu-Tanganda Road is one of the most accident prone roads in the country as a week hardly passes without recording a fatal accident.
A few weeks ago a Toyota Hiace carrying 15 passengers towards Chiredzi had an accident at the 5km peg on July 01, killing three passengers on the spot.
On June 28, another accident occurred at the 101 km peg when the pirate taxi driver, Simbarashe Muparuri (25), lost control of the Toyota Probox, and overturned twice. Muparuri sustained head injuries and died on his way to Chiredzi General Hospital. Four other passengers were injured in the accident while two of them sustained serious and life-threatening injuries.

Communal farmers rescue herds with crop residue

By Perpetua Murungweni

In the face of the El Nino-induced drought, farmers in communal lands are resorting to use of the residue of crops which could not mature due to poor rainfall to make stock feed for their livestock.
Agricultural Technical and Extension services (AGRITEX) on July 12, together with a group of veterinary officials and agronomist gathered at a Sikato Plot in ward 4 Masvingo District where they trained communal farmers on how to use crop waste to make stock feed ensuring the survival of their livestock.
Masvingo District ward 4 Agritex extension officer, Simeon Mashuro said they are on a program of equipping farmers with skills to produce their own stock feed.
“We managed to train around 35 farmers from ward 4 and the program is meant to equip farmers with skills to convert crop waste and grass into stock feed to ensure sustainability of their livestock during the El Nino-induced drought season. This practice promotes sustainable agriculture by reducing waste conserving resources and promoting environmentally friendly methods. These skills also help farmers to generate additional income by selling their stock feed,” said Mashuro.
One of the farmers Perpetua Mvurahungomwa said the training was held at her homestead where farmers gathered and were able to make a tonne of stock feed.
“We received training from a group of agronomists and some veterinaries on how to make stock feed and we were able to make about a tonne of stock feed using 1000kgs of crop residues, we will be moving from one house hold to another helping each other making about a tonne of stock feed or more depending on how much crop waste the farmer has,” said Mvurahungomwa.
Mvurahungomwa said as farmers they were happy with the training because the production of the feed is and affordable.
“The feed is very easy and cheap to make, we used a bag of urea fertilizer, 5kg salt and 20 litres of molasses. As a community we are happy that in this dry season we are now able to save money from buying expensive commercial feed for our livestock,” said Mvurahungomwa.
Simbisai Taruberekera expressed his happiness and said the training was going to help farmers adapt to climate change and preserve the environment.
“We are happy that as farmers we have gained skills to adapt to climate change and climate related challenges like droughts and we are now able to make sure that are livelihoods are resilient to climate change. As farmers we are now able to reduce our crop waste by not burning, which is hazardous to the environment but rather we are now able to manage our crop waste through environmental friendly ways.
“We were very worried about how our livestock was going to survive this drought but by us being able to make our own feed making sure that our livestock are health and can survive the harsh drought conditions,” said Taruberekera.

Employee Retirement

Planning For Retirement

Everyone’s life revolves round retirement planning. Given the rising rate of inflation and the limited social security programmes available to older adults, it is critical that you begin planning for your retirement as soon as possible. Preparing for retirement is a lot like preparing for a trip: nothing ever happens as planned. However, the better the strategy, the better the result. When things go wrong, you need to be able to adjust to shifting conditions. You never know what retirement will be like until you arrive. Making a smooth transition by “practicing retirement” is an important part of any retirement strategy. Consider it a dress rehearsal before you make the big (and often irreversible) decision to retire completely. According to one Scholar, Quinn, the following are some of the considerations;
• Before you retire, make a financial plan.
• You will need to be able to rebuild your finances once you retire.
• It is not as simple as it appears to keep your way of life.
• Inflation is a matter of survival.
• Making the transition to retirement is not easy.
• Are you going to be busy or bored?
• It is all up to you.
• Where have all of my “friends” gone?

Role of HR in preparing workers for retirement

Planning for retirement starts on the day one gets employed. Whereas this is ideal, the reality is that most individuals hold off retirement planning until in their 40s or even 50s. We have had judges, teachers, executives in State agencies and numerous professionals contesting to have their contracts extended to surpass the recommended retirement age. Therefore, the big question remains, who is to blame for the lack of preparedness? Is it a result of ignorance on the part of the individual or the human resource (HR) function? Whereas retirement planning is ultimately an individual responsibility, studies show that setting employees’ minds at rest about their retirement will make them more productive, loyal and committed. Employees leave the organisation feeling that their worth was recognised at every stage of their career. Therefore, involvement by both the individual and HR offers a win-win solution for both parties.
Also interestingly, positive saving behaviours such as having an emergency fund, maintaining a bank account or paying up credit when due do not impact an individual’s retirement confidence. This further shows the need for financial management programmes that go further than helping individuals budget, get out of debt or come up with a plan. The sensitisation should provide insights into much more critical retirement issues like estate planning, age-based investment, and nomination of beneficiaries, income replacement rations and compounding effect, among others.
Traditionally, retirement income used to come from three main sources: social security program, employer-provided retirement benefits program, and personal savings. Employer-provided retirement income benefit programs have been the main way in which organizations have helped employees fund their retirement years. From an individual standpoint, retirement is a process that begins long before, and continues well after, one retires. This temporary view of the retirement process is also shared by employers. The key task in the years leading up to the point when a worker officially retires is retirement preparation. Retirement preparation involves planning and taking those actions needed before retirement to help ensure that one has a satisfying retirement after retirement.
The main way in which organizations help workers with their retirement preparation is through provision of employee benefits. In addition to the retirement income, an organisation can offer many other benefits aimed at protecting employees after they retire. These include retiree health benefits, health savings accounts, and long-term care insurance. Retiree health benefits are health insurance programs that cover workers after they retire. Changes in government regulations and the downturn in the economy have led some employers to stop offering these benefit or reduce coverage. Unlike some other benefits, unless the organisation has made specific promises or surrendered the right co change their plans, these plans can be eliminated or changed by organisation.

The training has to go beyond the textbook action of estimating retirement needs but focus on holistic investment advice that takes to account retirement planning for individuals and their spouses and portfolio building. It’s only through taking this approach that we will enable members to make informed investment decisions. Additionally, HR practitioners need to take advantage of information technology not only as an enabler of operational efficiency but also as a platform for innovative financial literacy and member communication.

NB Employer Takeaway – A one-size-fits-all approach to retirement is no longer a workable solution for most employees. Employers have a unique opportunity to create a positive impact on the lives of their employees by taking proactive steps to assist employees in preparing for retirement. Empowering retirement readiness can not only help employers improve their attraction and retention efforts but also demonstrate their commitment to their employees’ well-being and improve their bottom lines.

Five-year jail term for burning competitor’s bar

By Precila Takabvirakare

A 20-year-old man from Gutu will rue the day jealousy got the best of him and led him to set on fire his competitor s’ thatched gazebo bar at Chisheche Business Centre where his father owns a bar after Gutu magistrate Edwin Marecha sentenced him to 5 years behind bars recently.
Sean Chiname of Chezhira Village, Chief Nyamande, Gutu will serve an effective three years jail term after Marecha suspended one year on condition that he will not commit a similar crime, while the other year was suspended on condition that he restitutes Godfrey Mahuni’s US$9 496 value of lost property.
State facts as presented by Prosecutor Rachel Murape are that on April 2, this year at around 2100hours Sean went to Mahuni’s thatched Gazebo bar club and set it on fire, after which he hid behind a pile of bricks near the gazebo bar to witness it burning.
Progress Chiname and another patron, one Funny who had came out of the bar to relieve themselves saw Sean bolting from behind the the brick pile but did not bother much about him.
After running away, Sean went to Gift Zvenyika who was welding at Maongera Shop and told him that he had set the bar on fire but the fire had just been put off. He went on and promised to completely burn the bar if he manages to get petrol.
At around 2330 hours the same day, Sean went back to the bar and set it on fire again and the fire engulfed and burnt the thatched bar. Nyasha Chizororo a neighbor at the bar was awakened by his partner after he had gone outside to relieve himself and saw the bar burning.
Chizororo then phoned Kudzai Mubaya and told her about the incident. They all went and awakened Enia Madzuto who was asleep at the gazebo butchery. They managed to remove some property from inside the bar and tried to extinguish the fire but all was in vain. The gazebo bar was burnt down to ashes and nothing was recovered. The value of lost property was US$9 946.
The matter was reported to the police leading to Sean’s arrest.
Asked why he committed the offense Sean cited that he did not commit the offense voluntarily but he was not mentally okay and is still mentally unstable. He was ordered to go for medical examination and the results showed that he was mentally stable.
Giving it’s judgement the court then said that he committed the offense knowingly to end the competition since his father also owns a bar at Chisheche and Mahuni’s bar was upscale. The magistrate also added that a jail sentence was suitable to send a message to the community and also give Sean time to reform.

Six appeal PVO Bill Parliamentary public hearings to Con-court

By Beverly Bizeki

Six civil society leaders from across the country have written to the Constitutional Court to order the Parliament of Zimbabwe to reconvene Private Voluntary Organisations (PVO) Amendment Bill hearings in four provinces arguing that the public hearings in these provinces failed to meet constitutional obligations.
The draft order in the court application has since been received by the court, with parliament expected to respond within 21 days according to the dictates of the constitution.
The six applicants are Farai Maguwu, Jonah Wakurawarerwa, Donald Chitanha, Passionate Fuza, Ephraim Mthombeni and Brisky Fanuel Ncube with the only respondent being the Parliament of Zimbabwe.
In the founding affidavit, the first applicant Farai Maguwu, argues that the hearings were not done procedurally as some participants were jeered at when they gave their views on the bill while the time that was provided for the meeting was not enough to have the whole province participate.
“(Then) the chance to speak was given to one lady, Passionate Fuza, the second applicant herein, she spoke against the bill and the crowd started jeering. Although the committee members tried to bring the house to order they were not successful. The room became chaotic to the extent that we could not hear each other.
“The group that was jeering and singing, disrupting the proceedings is the one that supported and cheered when its members spoke in favor of the bill.
“I further aver that the venue itself was too small to accommodate a sizeable and reasonable amount of people who could speak for and against the bill. Section 141 of the constitution provides that the respondent must facilitate public involvement in its legislative processes as well as ensuring that interested parties are consulted about bills being considered by it. This was not done. Interested parties like Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) were not consulted.
“To convene a public meeting for the whole of Harare Province at one venue for the just two hours from 1400hrs – 1600hrs was not adequate to meet the constitutional threshold,” reads the appeal.
Another applicant, Jonah Wakurawarerwa who attended the hearing in Masvingo said they were disturbed by violence and the participants could not give their contributions on the hearing.
“Despite arriving at the venue a few minutes after 1200hours, the theatre was already full hence I had to stand by the entrance at the theatre. I personally requested the Chairman, Mr Mavhenyengwa to have the hearing moved to a different venue which could accommodate more people. I was accused of disrespecting the chairman by some Zanu PF members. This resulted in violence from Zanu PF members who started to shout and assault people.
“When the hearing started, the chairman had highlighted that he would take contributions from representatives of organisations first before moving on to entertain other members of the public. The violence however began before members had been given an opportunity to make their contributions because the meeting ended abruptly as a result of violence,” reads part of the appeal.
For Chinhoyi, the fifth applicant, Donald Chitanha said the hearing became politicized.
“I noticed that quite a large number of Zanu PF MPs and Senators were in attendance. Some Zanu PF members who were in party regalia were making political slogans before making their contributions spoke in support of the bill.
“When I was given the opportunity to make my contributions I spoke about how the bill would negatively impact NGOs and the work they are doing in our society. I was directed to retract my statements by some Zanu PF members and MPS who accused me of being anti-government. They further threatened me and said I would face consequences for my statements. Further to the threats I was surrounded by a group of Zanu PF members that threatened to beat me. I could not finish my contribution as a result of the threats and mob that was advancing towards me,” reads another part of the application.
The application also details how in Gweru only eight people made contributions in the meeting before the meeting was disrupted.
In the PVO Bill Amendment, government is advocating for a streamlined registration process to prevent fraud as they have been claiming that charity organizations were registering as trusts.

GBV One-Stop-Centre for Masvingo

By Rangarirai Shanyurai

Ministry of Women Affairs, Community, Small and Medium Enterprises Development has established a One-Stop-Centre for Gender Based Violence (GBV) for survivors in Masvingo at Chesvingo Safe Market recently commissioned in Mucheke.
Chesvingo Safe Market, which was established by government with support from African Development Bank (AfDB) and Masvingo City Council was officially commissioned by the Minister of Women Affairs Senator Monica Mutsvangwa.
The safe market which is set to benefit at least 80 women and youths involves a pre-school as well as a One Stop Centre for victims of GBV.
It will also partner with Victim Friendly Unit, Zimbabwe Women Lawyers Association (ZWLA) and Musasa Project to empower survivors of GBV also offering counselling services before an issue is directed to ZWLA.
Speaking at the commissioning, Mutsvangwa said the safe market was an example of how government and its stakeholders can support women-owned businesses by ensuring that they are operating in safe workspaces, free of GBV.
“The Safe Market will prioritize the provision of a safe workspace for women and youth entrepreneurs, education for children and services to survivors of GBV. This is in line with Vision 2030 which aims at achieving an upper middle-income society.
“By providing a dedicated workspace like this safe market for women, the ministry is empowering them to contribute to economic growth. We still have more women who need decent workspaces and let’s continue to collaborate and provide such spaces for them,” said Mutsvangwa.
Masvingo Minister of State Provincial Affairs and Devolution, Ezra Chadzamira encouraged women entrepreneurs to utilise the opportunities presented by the facility in growing their businesses.
“I encourage all small business owners, especially our women entrepreneurs, to take advantage of the opportunities it presents. Utilize the market, the pre-school, the One-Stop Centre, and the other essential services to grow your businesses, thriving in a safe and supportive environment,” said Chadzamira.
Beneficiaries welcomed the project saying it enabled them to get a safe space for working as well as making services for GBV survivors accessible.
“We are very excited today as women, that the government and its partners have remembered us with this facility as women and youths such that we have a safe space for work where we can sell our products. Most women are victims of sexual and gender-based violence, so this institution provides safe shelter and counselling making the services accessible to women in the residential areas. As you can see this market is responsive,” said one of the beneficiaries.
Another woman at the event said she was grateful for the facility which enabled them to work with their children close by at the preschool.
“As women, we feel safe that we will be able to work while our children are learning at this pre-school. Again pertaining to GBV we now have One Stop Centre of victims or survivors that is Victim Friendly Unit (VFU),” she said.

Masvingo artist to raise awareness on GBV against men, boys

By Decide Nhendo

Victims of gender-based violence (GBV) are commonly women and girls, but it is undeniable that men and boys are also targeted. It is thus a travesty that males who experience GBV receive less attention than females and that such cases remain hidden.
Masvingo-based musician Kennedy Ganda is setting his sights on these less addressed GBV issues targeted at man, saying he is determined to reach greater heights as he works to popularize his work across the country.
Ganda who is known in music circles by the name KennyGizzy99 said financial constraints are a major setback to his desire to communicate societal ills, but he vowed to keep on pushing his agenda.
“I am working tirelessly as an artist to address GBV against men and boys and my next project a song titled ‘Haruna’ is a song that looks into men and boys that are being abused by women. When these issues are raised, authorities only prioritize women and girls alienating men, so I am trying to stand for them and make their voice be realized in societies as they can also be victims of GBV.
“My main calamity as for now is lack of funding because in all seven songs I have released only one song ‘Mwana uye’ has visuals, of which visuals are an excellent way to lure fans to listen to an artist’s message,” said Ganda.
Ganda who said he is an Afro-pop, contemporary and Afro-Jazz musician started in 2021 after he broke his leg while playing soccer, with his debut song and video ‘Mwana uye’ earning him best upcoming artist in the same year in a local competition.
After his first single he went on year to release an extended play (EP) with 3 songs; ‘Lydia’, ‘Kidznet’ and ‘Cheu Cheu’ a gospel song that he said was received well by the audience, but did not meet his expectations since it did not have visuals.
He ceased composing new songs to have enough time to push his released songs and in late 2022 he released his second EP which had two tracks ‘Hombarume’ which he said was mainly a cultural song, and ‘Chibhareta’ which he said celebrated women.
Ganda said he has been going for auditions in Masvingo and cities like Harare where he emerged one of the best performers in some cases, but his displays were in vain since sometimes he was duped by event organizers, which shows a great setback to the growth of music industry.
“I have been doing auditions locally here in Masvingo and big cities like Harare, and sometimes I could outperform my other counterparts but in most cases I could not receive the promised prizes or I could receive the prizes reduced which shows that most promoters do not value upcoming talent, ” said Ganda.
He appealed to Masvingo community as well as other well-wishers who wish to assist him saying that he was ready to use his talent for the better. He said he aims to do tours in schools, and other public places raising awareness about challenges that are affecting communities like drug abuse and early child marriages.
“I ask those who are willing and capable to assist me on my endeavor because I am sure if I get the equipment and money to create visuals and do what other modern artists are doing nothing can stop me from to reach higher heights,” he said.
Ganda also said he is working with producer Wellington Mapanzure also known as Savil Music who hails from Mucheke B and he said they were working on other songs that are yet to be released.
“I am working with Savil Music from Mucheke, and as it stands everything is flowing smoothly, we have a number of songs which we are working on, and I am sure music lovers are going to enjoy the new songs when they are released,” he said.
Those who want to listen to his music can follow him on Facebook on Jindaguru Rekumakumucha, YouTube channel KennyGizzy99 aka Jindaguru, Instagram on jindagururekumakucha and Jindaguru Rekumakumucha on Spotify.
