OPPOSITION MDC leader Welshman Ncube has accused President Robert Mugabe of humiliating Zanu PF ministers from Matebeleland and reducing their influence in government with his three cabinet reshuffles in less than a year. The cabinet changes were supposedly intended to weed out suspected loyalists of former vice president Joice Mujuru who was ousted for allegedly plotting a coup against Mugabe. Analysts say the reshuffles, effected since the December 2014 split in the top echelons of…

‘The Death Of Infrastructure In Zimbabwe’-Welshman Ncube

WE know from studying Greco-Roman history that civilisations do die, especially if the momentum of human enlightenment is not maintained. Civilisations are also killed by wars, diseases and the abuse of political power. Actually, the world’s most exciting archeological discoveries in the Middle East, North African and Mediterranean regions are based on civilisations that died. I am writing this rather cryptic introduction because in Zimbabwe, we are under the rule of a Zanu PF dynasty…

(Mugabe Rambled Through A  ‘Cents-less’ , Maligned Thirty  Minute, Ten Point Plan)-Welshman Ncube

“President Mugabe deliberately evaded the Eleventh Point because he resents and despises effective democracy.” EACH one of us – during our childhood or as teenagers – have at one time or another knocked our big toe against a stone (ukukhubeka, kugumbugwa), banged our heads against the corner of an open window, got a finger squeezed by a closing door or knocked an elbow against a hard surface. In all four circumstances, the result is always…

‘Zimbabwe, From Bread Basket To Begging Basket’-Welshman Ncube

THOSE of us who grew up in Rhodesia knew from an early age that the foundational pillars of the strength of the Rhodesian economy lay in agriculture, mining and manufacturing. So strong was Rhodesia’s agriculture, whatever could be said of its racist outlook in respect of land ownership and control that I, just like most middle-aged Zimbabweans, grew up on a generous diet of State ‘propaganda’ that our country ‘is the bread basket of Africa’….

Welshman Ncube : ‘Zimbabwe, From Two Million Employed Down To Two Million Unemployed’

BY THE the time you read this piece, the Parliament of Zimbabwe would have passed the Labour (Amendment) Bill, 2015. It seeks to solve a labour problem for which many blame either the Supreme Court or overzealous employers said to have unscrupulously taken advantage of the Supreme Court ruling on notice termination of employment to engage in mass dismissals of employees without compensation. I have read gloatingly provocative postings online by Zanu PF mandarins calling…
