I have not been to church in a few years because of the unrelenting fury and after effects of COVID-19. Yes, COVID-19 has pushed us farther away from church and government has failed to acknowledge this and duly put the right programmes in place to...
The world nowadays has absolutely no mercy whatsoever for men kissing a woman that is not their wife, girlfriend or small house. In football nowadays you cannot get away with anything.They have a contraption called VAR. It captures every sin...
People are also apparently too lazy to sell cats if they have any. Usually you find there’s a cat in your household and you wonder where it came from. Most of the time the cat is a great grandson to the cat that your great grandfather once owned...
Obviously this also arms the naysayers to spew vitriol and trash his campaign. The current rallying cry by our President goes something like ‘Re chenchile’ But hold on, we have not changed as yet.Until we all as a country work with SPEDU speed...
Work? Usually such grand and strange ideas don’t always work. The whole purpose of legislation is to come up with something that will satiate the masses but it doesn’t necessarily have to work.So the idea is that a politician or a Minister could...
From athletes diving over finish lines to athletes winning races and promptly having their gender being called into question. From athletes smoking devil’s lettuce on the eve of a premier athletics meet to athletes to officials ‘eating’...
Around mid-next year we voters should be fine and just like the Stella in the novel our groove will be back. Our stock should rise and nudge blue-chip level. We were served a trailer in recent by-elections. To those still stuck in the pre-millennial...

What was supposed to be an afternoon of fun quickly degenerated into a farce. Spectators at the Toyota Desert Race lost it. It seems the whole country is caught up in some silent competition to get the best pictures of any event they attend.So when...
I am thinking here of jingles like ‘After doing the nice and nasty at the Desert Race do not forget the constitutional visit to our pharmacies dotted around our villages and towns’. But I must ease up on talking about these peripheral issues of...
We just wanna talk so there’s no need to panic. We just wanna find out why they decided it should be during the coldest time of the year. As I write, there’s a menacing cold front creeping in to scupper those Father’s Day plans and put paid to...

There was a sense of menace in their criticism, like the purr of a lion feasting on an impala. The cynics smelt political gimmickry.The cynics smelt corruption. The cynics smelt bull dust if you would excuse the pun. The arrival of the bulls and...
Otherwise there’s a real possibility of folks wondering whether you don’t have the fare to get back or you are some kind of fugitive running away from the serious city law.City law is supposed to be more stringent and tougher than village law. So...
But the significance of this day seems to be lost to most as a good part of the population seems intent on sinning as much as possible away from heaven.And on this day, this very significant day in the Bible, most of us will patronise sin spots like...
Half the population will follow him blindly until they fall into an abyss. When Mr Ponzi Scheme is in town, many folks lose their minds. It is like when the ice cream van hits your street and parents lose control of their kids.Consumer Watchdog...
Writer’s block is a more technical term to describe a writer’s inability to come up with something interesting to write. But what is the writer’s block? Now for most of us this means when we get to this point our jobs might be in more jeopardy...
