Response to “Raza puts Chevrons in control”

Zimbabwe has been playing positive cricket throughout this tour. Whoever is behind this transforma­tion I take a bow. — @svkhere.

Response to “Namibia draw first blood”

I spent close to 15 minutes just describing my Zimbabwe rugby heartache to a friend. That (Fortune) Chipendu near miss right at the end. — @lizweC.

Response to “Shock rise in road traffic accidents”

Not exactly shocking when roads are filled with potholes the size of my bathtub. Where exactly is the money from tollgates going? — Nandi Williams.

I can remember singing along to the Paradzai Mesi song, “Tamirira mhinduro nazvino takangomir­ira.” We urge our music promoters to help these musicians especially the likes of Mesi and others in the sungura genre. This is the genre that we know. — Denford Given Pirikisi.

Those companies who may find it difficult to co-operate with Government’s ban on kaylite may take their business to Donald Trump’s America, the man who pulled out of the 2015 United Nations Climatic Change Conference Agreement in Paris recently. Our agro-based economy cannot be jeopardise­d by these polluters. — Cde Bla Max Boomerang.

*** Tough luck for our teams who went to Namibia. I hope they won’t be dishearten­ed since we have a good opportunit­y to exact revenge in the return legs. — George Taumbwa, Harare.

*** People should take care of their health. I don’t think there are enough public service announceme­nts on this. We must watch what we eat, exercise and keep our surroundin­gs clean.

Some of these things we take for granted, we will end up paying the price with our lives if we are not careful. — Eddie Kuchena.

Response to “Shock rise in road traffic accidents”

Traffic cops must be licensed drivers preferably with a minimum of five years driving experience. That way they understand better the dynamics on the roads and would know what to look at.

Looking at some sticker on a 2015 Ford Ranger single cab or a 2010 Toyota Hilux being driven by a mature 45-yearold whilst a visibly unroadwort­hy Toyota Hiace being driven by a 24-year-old young man visibly high on something passes by is the height of irresponsi­bility.

Our road accidents are being caused by mushikashi­kas and kombis most of which are now owned by the cops. One effective roadblock is worth a thousand of these spike- wielding stops dotted around Zimbabwe. — Developmen­t Proponent.

Response to “GZU lecturer dies defending PhD thesis”

That is so sad. Academia is highly stressful and I hope the institutio­n will still grant it to him posthumous­ly. I also wonder if someone promptly administer­ed CPR? Not that people will not die, but all I have read is that he was frothing. Might immediate interventi­on have helped? — Heya.

Response to “From rags to riches and back to rags”

If I think about the song Nherera and Guruva l shed a tear. This man gave us powerful songs which strengthen­ed us and gave us hope as we grew up in the rural areas. He inspired a lot and united the country through music. I think he deserves another chance. — Teddy Beto.
