Dr Alex Magaisa exposes how Zanu (PF) hawks, misled by Jonathan Moyo and a shadowy columnist who calls himself Nathaniel Manheru, have been deceiving themselves about the fate of the Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai after the new constitution comes into force. He writes:

An article on page 2 of The Herald newspaper today mischievously and erroneously suggests that there is uncertainty over the future of the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM). Entitled, “Uncertainty hangs over Tsvangirai’s political status”, the article gives the impression that the adoption of the new Constitution will spell the end of the OPM and that Prime Minister Tsvangirai will only serve at the pleasure of President Mugabe.

The content and message in this article is incorrect. Either the reporters are being deliberately selective in reading the new Constitution or they have simply failed to read and interpret the new Constitution. Ignorance can be forgiven and corrected but deliberate distortion of the law and facts is unacceptable.

The Constitution’s provisions are very clear on this issue, as will be explained below. PM Tsvangirai and Cabinet remain in office

Stakeholder intervention and resident involvement in decision making could have assisted in averting some of Harare City Council's service delivery challenges which have led to an outbreak of Typhoid and other diarrhoeal diseases, says the Combined Harare Residents Association (Chra).

Experts have linked the outbreak to unclean water sourced from unprotected water sources by residents, most of whom have either had their water supply cut off because of non-payment or other municipal penalties which are being enforced through cutting off water supplies of many households.
