The Herald Social Media Feedback
Response to “Hospital sends SOS” Kudos to Obadiah Moyo. The man runs around. — @franciscanyamukapa.
*** Response to “Presidential scheme boosts cotton production”
Everything our President Cde Robert Mugabe touches turns into gold. — @ mukaisima.
*** Response to “$2 250 debt haunts MP” Our courts have been turned into a jungle by this generation who are all, but suspects. How can one be described as rendering unspecified professional service, and the courts proceed to hear a case of that nature? — @mbadaray.
*** Response to “Nakamba seals Belgium move”
The best move with a vision. At least he is assured of plenty of game time and being scouted to bigger clubs. Well done to his advisers. — @mushayitj.
Response to “Command Agriculture puts doubters to shame”
I look forward to a day when the price of maize meal will fall in shops. We support turning subsistence farmers into commercial farmers. — Chikava.
*** Response to “Government clarifies roadblocks issue”
The standard roadblocks have become a thing of the past. Police do not waste time setting them up. Two or three chaps in police uniform can mount a spot check and this is what our concern is on. Why do we need spot checks after every two kilometres as if we are a country at war or we have unofficially become a police state? — Analyst.
Response to “Potraz evaluates local data charges”
Potraz should include researching its own exorbitant licence charges and see how much they contribute to the high cost of data! — Tawanda, Gweru.
*** Response to “Nakamba seals Belgium move”
Nakamba is a different breed. The boy has real talent — a skilful and very strong central midfielder who can easily dispossess opponents and is good going forward. He plays like Kante, the genius. Watch him and you won’t be disappointed. — Mukwereza, Chitungwiza.
*** Response to “What an offside” After all is said and done, the only incontestable solution from the above analysis is we now have three points in the bag. A replay is out of question. Well done again DeMbare. — Mutsa Mutema.
The argument that the power utility, Eskom of South Africa, increases its electricity tariffs now and again does not hold water as a reason for Zesa to be granted a tariff raise. The reason is very simple: inflation. South Africa has inflation greater than five percent. Tariff increases therefore must accommodate that, or recapitalise. Today, however, inflation is zero or negative in Zimbabwe. Tariffs, if initially well pegged, should be going down. Zesa, however, like NRZ or Air Zimbabwe, needed recapitalisation after the hyper-inflation period. A tariff increase is not the best way to do it. Cash must come from the shareholder or new, additional shareholders. As for selling power to chrome miners for six cents; ZETDC needs to revise the tariff upwards to eight cents. Who is it subsidising: the Chinese steel makers? — Iron Will.
*** In life there is something that differentiates people when it comes to success. It’s called luck or good fortune. This comes to play above the talents we were born with. When I look at Khama Billiat, this thing seems to be evading him. Even Rio Ferdinand said Khama was a star for the future, but he can’t make it even in Cyprus. It also evaded Peter Ndlovu to some extent. So did Bambo. Benjani Mwaruwaru had it in abundance. This boy Nakamba certainly has it. He will shock us and go a long way, though two generations down the lane they will not talk about him much because he did nothing memorable. I can’t think of any of Benjani’s wonder moments. I just remember he played for Man City. — Nkomo Murehwa.
