In response to Govt milking workers dry, VENGAI MUPANEDENG­U says: I’m very bitter about this government. It is taking most of my salary through the exorbitant taxes. How can I share my salary in half with government? Daylight robbery.

MBUDAYA says: We have always expressed concern over the numerous and high taxes being charged by government. It’s high time we vote Zanu PF out and find a better alternativ­e because we are going nowhere.

In response to Be patient, teachers told, TALENT TAZVITYA says: Being patient with the employer is not an issue, the problem is poverty and hunger are not patient with a broke employee.

MDUE MBULELO MAKHAKHI says: We have been patient for too long. Government has failed us. We are now a laughing stock and no one respects our profession anymore.

In response to Zanu PF after my goats: Chin’ono, MAZVANYA says: Thief, thief, our Zanu PF government is a thief. It should leave Hopewell Chin’ono alone. The man is just painting a true picture of what is happening in Zimbabwe. This is where freedom of expression is put to the test. Is our government sincere when it says we are free to speak what we want? By persecutin­g Chin’ono, we now know that understand­ing that there is no freedom at all in this country.

In response to Afcon funds: Mlotshwa responds, GODWIN MANDEBVU says: I think we need profession­al people at the helm of Zimbabwe’s governance institutio­ns. Why would the Gerald Mlotshwa-led Sports and Recreation Commission keep money raised for the team in a bank account while national team players are striking for non-payment of bonuses? Mlotshwa and his handlers should repent. Sanity should return to our football. Mlotshwa should reinstate the Zifa board and let the boys do their work on the field of play.

In response to Govt pledges to deliver 2m IDs by September, JOE EXALTED says: Which government? The one that is there has no such capacity. In a normal country, getting an ID is not newsworthy. There is something wrong with our country.

In response to Zec blames social media for voter apathy, BAFOZA NSUKAMINI ZIKHALI says: The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (Zec) should stop blaming others for its failures. Having been in the news for the wrong reasons, Zec should cleanse itself. Its image is in tatters, yet it wants to dodge its wrongs. It should dust itself up and move forward and do the right things.
