Posted on July 25, 2015 by newzimbabwevision

Zimbabwe is an enigma to many. The country presents itself as a clean, modern State with friendly people, little crime and small pockets of prosperity and wealth. A small country blessed with a great climate, an abundance of natural resources that put us in the top league of countries In terms of the ratio between our population and our resource base. Underneath the veneer, is a less attractive Zimbabwe; we are a country caught in…

Posted on July 14, 2015July 14, 2015 by newzimbabwevision

Abducted journalist-turned-human rights activist Itai Dzamara’s continued disappearance is acting as a catalyst for unity among President Robert Mugabe’s political opponents, as they say his government has destroyed all the gains of the country’s liberation struggle against white minority rule. The rising demands for the government to either release or find Dzamara – who went missing after staging sit-ins agitating for the resignation of Mugabe – are broadening into a concerted national fury that is…

Posted on July 10, 2015 by newzimbabwevision

The MDC President Welshman Ncube’s – Weekly On Friday commentary on national issues-Friday 10 July 2015, is this weeks about ‘Why Zimbabweans Are Always Short of‘Food’ The phrase ‘gore rezhara’ or ‘umyaka wendlala’ – the year of famine – is familiar with most Zimbabweans of my age.

‘Mugabe’s Cabinet Reshuffle, Is A Recycle Of Zanu PF Deadwood’- MDC

Posted on July 7, 2015 by newzimbabwevision

Yesterday’s cabinet reshuffle by President Robert Mugabe is nothing but a recycle of Zanu PF deadwood, who like all Zanu PF ministers in the present cabinet, do not have the capacity to tackle the myriad of challenges confronting Zimbabwe. We have seen absolutely no improvements in the economy since cabinet appointments in 2013 and the reshuffle prior to this one. The MDC therefore sees no prospects for a turn -around under any configuration in the…

‘Why are Zimbabweans so poor?’-Welshman Ncube

Posted on June 16, 2015June 16, 2015 by newzimbabwevision

A FEW weeks ago, we woke up to a ‘research’ whose results showed a list of fifty wealthiest Zimbabweans. I do not know what benchmark the researchers used, but the message was simple: those men and women have more assets, more money and better quality of life than both you and I combined! Rather than agonising over the wealth of the woman or man next door, the question that resonated in my mind was why…
