YOU COULD BE THE CAUSE OF THE TERRORISM THAT IS HURTING US!!! *E*very one of us has gone through the evils that go on in the government offices or the other places of work. It is only the baby’s and the newcomers to this world who can not know these. This is because they haven’t seen it, but they will soon witness it unless something happens to change the situation. What we are talking about is the misuse of power in the high offices and the rampant graft that happens every where, and sometimes, it happens while the weak people in the society or the common man, as many may understand it, witness helplessly. The misuse of power is usually accompanied with pride of the immunity against the law that these office staff or leaders enjoy. When they display the power given to them by the country’s constitution to the common man plus the immunity against the law that goes with the offices that they hold and use it as a shield to defend themselves against the evils that they do to the weak people, it is against the ethics and everyone knows that. So, when all the means of defense for the common man are blocked, what would you expect to provide justice for them? The network spreads from one office to the other, from one department to the other and it goes on up to the courts of law, what do you think could provide justice for the common man anyway?? When you think a case in the court of law will provide you with the justice and protection that you need very much, you are shocked to learn that it is them again and your complain has been given a deaf ear. In the end you have no where to go apart from going back to your house in the village and living like that for the rest of your life. You live in despair; you can’t plan your future or invest in long term projects because you are not certain with your life and the leadership in your country. Because of these, every able bodied man will always want to have their rights watched.

Take care of yourself__"The first wealth is health".

By Strive Masiyiwa  A few weeks ago I went to the doctor. I will tell you what he said about my health at the end, but first read this: Twenty years ago, I arranged to meet a well-known British international businessman who invested a lot in Africa at the time. We agreed to meet for dinner at a leading hotel in London.  After a good meeting, we started to walk out of the restaurant when he suddenly collapsed in the lobby. There was total pandemonium as they rushed to get medical assistance. Being London, an ambulance arrived in minutes. I jumped in the back with him as paramedics wrestled to keep him alive. He had had a heart attack and had to have triple bypass heart surgery. Sadly he died a few weeks later. He hadn't been sick and his sudden death surprised everyone. And yet as I reflected on it, and later discussed it with a doctor friend who knew him, I realized he was very laid back about his health despite having a hectic business life. Even during our dinner...

Mulolongo is not just a place.

Mulolongo is not just a place. It's a whole syllabus. And deep within its curriculum is a tiny street called Zambarau where meat is sold both day and night. By day, Zambarau is a heaven of nyama. Smoke rises like prayers as meat sizzles on grills. You can find it in stew, dry fry, grilled or even boiled for the toothless. But when darkness announces its arrival, the meat form changes. It’s still meat, yes, but this one is served somewhat raw. Colourful, tender and priced depending on texture, origin, and freshness. The most popular evening meat here is called pig Porko. Everyone in Zambarau street and its tributaries knows pig meat, Porko. It is well supplied, comes in different packages and is available all night till morning. On a certain Friday evening, Katomo walked into Mulolongo feeling like a tycoon. After working for three solid weeks smoothing walls in Kalangaita, the foreman finally remembered him. He was paid a full Ksh 790. Not a coin less. That evening, Kat...
