The mining sector is the country’s largest foreign currency earner, hence any move to boost it is most welcome and deserves the support of all stakeholders. — TK.

Response to “Pandemic claims 21 more lives”
We should continue to exercise caution. Stay home. The encouragement to stay home is not even new in our culture, I say so because we have idioms that speak to that narrative. — Tirivanhu Kateera.

Response to “Ex-Zimche boss
stripped of degree”
It is an embarrassment to the regulator. How did she sail through all the promotional stages? It goes to show that our promotion systems lack somehow. A receptionist rising through the ranks to become an executive. It has also exposed the profligacy in awarding perks to the chefs. It is just too much for an economy like ours. — John Sigauke. www.herald.co.zw
Response to “Covid-19 allowances for civil servants extended”
The Government is really trying its level best. That gesture shows Government is sensitive to the plight of its workers. You will never get to hear detractors commenting on this positive gesture. I suggest, if resources permit, Government gives the allowance in USD so that workers can pay rentals which are demanded in foreign currency. — John Sigauke. ***
Great move and thank you our listening Government for being concerned about the welfare of workers. — Dzapasi.

Something does not quite add up on this case. If Great Zimbabwe University conferred a degree on the individual, it follows she had fulfilled the requirements of the conferment. So the degree was not forged.
She might have misrepresented her O’ Level and other diplomas, but certainly the degree from GZU was genuine. So she was adequately qualified for the job and was good at it, otherwise she would not have been promoted.
We know in our professions, generally people are promoted mainly based on competency. Education and qualifications are simply job entry pre-requisites.
We can have highly qualified, but less competent people in positions. It does not mean they should be promoted over less qualified, but highly competent colleagues. This case is missing a few pieces to make sense.
