Glory be to God! When humans had lost all hope of finding any of the 15 miners alive, God’s merciful hand saved the artisanal miners from the jaws of death. — @Godmercy

The ground was still unstable and hopes to rescue the artisanal miners were getting faint. Oh! Merciful and gracious God thank you. God’s miracles at work. — @keeptheFaith

“We followed cracks, opening them until we came closer to the surface. We sought refuge at the far corner of the shaft when the mine was collapsing,” a survivor said. We were eating the roots of trees and leaves to survive. We would taste the roots before eating. That resulted in us surviving. There are many cracks down there and the ground is not safe. We also survived due to teamwork.”Prayer, teamwork and faith kept the spirits of the artisanal miners alive. — @Teamwork
Thank you Lord for rescuing the artisanal miners. Glory to you! — @ Godmercy
Responses to “Children of missing Borrowdale couple still appealing for help to locate parents”
So sad to learn about the disappearance of the Borrowdale couple, Mr Gus Spartas and his wife Elector Mupfumisi who went missing in June 2020, and had their vehicle, a Toyota Hilux double cab burnt to ashes. It’s so painful not find closure in the disappearance of parents. – AchimDubs

RESPONSES to “Businesses urged to install pavement bins”
Businesses must comply with the regulations to help keep our city clean. The fines must be heavy to force business shop owners to comply. — Changa Welele
The public too must support efforts to clean up our city by desisting from littering the streets. Maintaining a clean environment is a collective responsibility. — Masinyane VB
The same mindset should be seen in individual households, where a prevailing culture of tidiness should prevail, achieved through the reduction, recycling, or reuse of waste. I agree with this — Sisonke K
