What do the people say?

More and more Zimbabweans, both at home and all over the world, are using social media to communicate. The Zimbabwean is committed to helping Zimbabweans everywhere to claim and access their right to give and receive information. So every week we stimulate debate on a number of issues affecting us. These are your responses in this week’s issue:

Why have very main road named after one person surely they are other unknown heroes who deserve this owner. – @QueenNosipho

Some heroe(s) more hero worthy than others maybe?? – @MariaZest1

Hardly, I mean he’s already a power hungry psychotic so why can’t we add narcissist to the mixture? – @Cde_Mugabe

Would you support a new party started by Biti and company?

Morgan is becoming weaker and weaker daily. Let democrats like Biti form their own party, they will have a lot of supporters. They have a very good record in government. – Benny Chidziso

As long as they are able to remove Zanu bt i doubt 2 much. – Peyisayi Mlambo

Hope Biti does not lead breakaway faction, but rather takes this opportunity to quit in protest. We know factions never work! – @Taffgidi

Divided they fall…. MDC is becoming a joke….Mugabe will indeed have the last laugh. – @Mambokadzi

Do you think the UK should continue providing massive humanitarian support for Zimbabwe?

The donations are not thrown into their beneficiaries due to the greed & corrupt of these rock headed guys infact it seems as we ar not getting help from other nations , of which all these donations are being perish before they get into right hands. So we to solve this issue first bfo these guys go far. – Pardon Black Jackal Dzino

Yes it must because we the general people can prosper if the donations fall in right hands and well managed. – Irvine Mupfuri

Its tantamount. – Jabulani Matutu

The money should be properly used. All provinces should benefit.I think rural schools should get first priority. – Ndumiso Nkomozamaduna Khumalo

Yes they must. Shouldn’t conflate Zimbabwe(ans) and Zany PF. – @phirimarko

Better to give development assistanc as well. sustainable, ppl can benefit long afta donor is gon. – @moyo_buhle

If the truth be told, a chunk of their wealth is our ancestors’ and surely we deserve a piece. – @lamsig07

Do you think Minister Mombeshora is serious about establishing who owns what land in Zimbabwe?

No its a mere talk show. – @farayimate8

He may be serious for now but he will lose interest later just because,coz his other ministers will just not co-operate. – @sheltonbiz85

Do you think there is a future for white Africans?

Bring back the good farmers to bring back the bread basket status. – Simba Leon Chivizhe

At the moment we are all hoping for a future …. white, pink, black, brown whatever color our skin is. There are many displaced people, so many untold stories and so much hope as well as so much anger. Some of us believe that there is a future and other believe not! When a nation is so divided this causes difficulties for anything to work. – Samm Sammstones

No need fo discrimination guys africans are africans lets unite 2gether as one. – Pardon Black Jackal Dzino

Are we talking of colour? Then why do we say white Africans? Your last phrase is so painful. Yes there is. Only if we refer to them as Africans, they got nowhere else to go. -Jacob Chifire

I don’t think so becoz its now long they have been alienating themselves after the change of constitutions and policies in many govnts if not alienated. – Irvine Mupfuri

Yes, after this autocracy its gonna be alright. – Gain Sibanda

Zviroto. – Mabasa Sharara

As long as white Africans don’t have minds left in Old Africa yes. We all love Africa black or white. – @Mambokadzi

There’s a future for all, l do feel for the white community in Zim because they tread very gently in all they say and do because people are so ready to crucify them for any small thing, bad to live under uncertainty. – @QueenNosipho

If not are black/coloured Africans racist ? Live together , it’s the only and ironically best way forward for Zim. – @gordythemag

Long Queues for travel documents – blame on economic conditions rather than decade delay in extra offices.

U need $1000,000 to complete the building (ok)? (fact) u get $53 per passport!! u produce 2,000 passports per day(ryt)? = $106,000 per day(fact)!! A grade 4 boy will tell u that u need 10 days to get that $1m!! en u r claiming to work 24/7 then y cant u make arrangements w the min of finance to finish that building ASAP? why cant u also decentralize the registration.. Provincial offices shld be able to finish the whole process.. Its jus corruption nothing else* This has been our country!!, SHAME!! – Danni Fitshane

Why didn’t they use the money from bonas wedding to complete the building. – Garry Williams

Someone should be ashamed of making people run away from their beloved country. -Peter Masanga

Another one of those getting paid too much. – Lea Ferreira

How much salary do the big boys get. Hundreds of thousands. – Terry Attwell

They are only making promises.This is the department that wasted taxpayer’s money.For example they built office complex at Nkayi its now more than 10 years back. Till now the offices are incomplete. The building is getting damaged before its completed and occupied. When will they complete the project? This is poor service delivery. The staff is also corrupt. Even a simple thing like getting a birth certificate they demand a bribe. Its happening in town offices like Byo Drill Hall and Passport office. – Ndumiso Nkomozamaduna Khumalo

I know, because I have just renewed mypassport. Not only is it mayhem, but, some of the people are so very rude. – @dean_plessis

The MDC-T National Executive Council…. SUSPENDED the party’s Deputy Treasurer, Elton Mangoma

Stupid Mangoma shld b very thankful to b a member of peace loving MDC. If it was in Zanu, i tel u , he wld b buried alive for daring to challenge Bob publicly. Mangoma’s suspension is above the board & it wl stand. Suspension pending dismissal. – Joel Mutasa

Mangoma ngaende zvekuti hapana kutedzwa gwara kwaro hatineyi nazvo koiye akadii kutedza gwara kwaro akamirira congress 2016. – Robson Robie Mutimusakwa

Tsoro yaBiti naMangoma yakafa save vanobuda bhobho. – Kennedy Mafika

Bt Mangoma anofunga kuti chii chaizvo, kuda kudzinga baba mumba mavo. – Blissful Mamombe

Tsvangirai the dictator that was mentored by Mugab.Red card to Tsvangirai. – Huggla Caprice

The mdc-t is a circus that will entrench Mugabeism once in power. I for one will never again let Tsvangirai ride on my back.With fellow grassroot activist we struggled and gave all we got for change only for Tsvangirai to go against the people’s will and form a GNU that perhaps improved his life while we remained in poverty. Suspending Mangoma is merely taking eyes off the ball by the National Council. Mangoma is merely a sacrificial lam. – Huggla Caprice

Mangoma should have used proper channels to raise his issue. He knows that himself. – Ndumiso Nkomozamaduna Khumalo

Fancy MDC suspending Mangoma for speaking his mind.What jokers. This is synonimous to my domesticall terrorised situation, where on paying the required boundary verification fee, my “terr” security guard neighbour was by council ordered to remove his chicken run from my property, to no avail. Atop all this , he has a plantation of giant avocadoes on council main lines.Both water and sewer. A ticking timebomb.All this to opress me from building my Jericho. Are we missing something here?Who’s selling out the purpose of the struggle here? lt’s common fact that African pollitrix is riddled with voodoo.Somebody in MDC’s gotta be using ‘obi wan’obviously attained from prophets and faith healers both distant and local.If such a keener, morgan must first fix his house then, maybe our faith in him fixing our Nation might return. – H. Charlie. Redcliff via SMS

Dynamos have travelled to the Democratic Republic of Congo to face AS Vita after having not trained for three days.

We wish them all the best, may the Almighty hail Dembare and raise their standard so that they beat the Congo team. Bosso for life. – Desmond Mafanya Maqhawe

Haa musavatyire. They come from the land of miracles so they gonna win. – Sakala Mekani

That doesnt mean they cn atract such support. we heard of Tp mazembe and fc Lupopo but whenever we went there we never saw mo that 20k spectators. We bit Lupopo in 2008 and pp were toking a lot.Cme 2moro after 5pm we wil ask questions. This Vita has a history of being eliminated in the first round, there z nothing special about them. – Gondai Mazvure

“Dear Aunty Lisa, I am a young woman aged 29, I have been married for six years now and I am failing to conceive. I have seen the doctors and they say there is nothing wrong with me. My husband keeps sending me to different doctors who say the same thing. He was very frustrated the last time I suggested we go together and he refused insisting there was nothing wrong with him. I am so clueless and at a loss for ideas, what can I do?” Dudu. How would you advise Dudu?

Woman tune to emmanuel TV and receive your deliverance. – Tinevimbo Thakah Charltine

Murume pane zvaanoziva. – Coneleus Katsawa

Well as long as your husband refuses to go for testing then its going to be difficult. Only after ascertaining that both of you have no problem can we begin to assist. If any one of you had a child outside wedlock then we know who the fault lies with!! Good luck. – Tims Kams

Does your husband have a child outside your marriage? Then if not I think your husband should go and see the Doctors as well.Maybe he is the one who has the problem. He should not blame you. Why is he refusing to go for medical tests and check up? I think he knows his problem.Try together with his aunt to convince him to go with you. – Ndumiso Nkomozamaduna Khumalo
