This has come in from one of Kubatana’s mobile phone subscribers:

Zimbabwe’s State Broadcaster is sick. I have just wasted 30 minutes watching a program called Spotlight in which the dull presenter Admire Mhungu was supposed (but failing) to interview a political analyst on the issue between ZANU PF’s Indigenisation & Empowerment and MDC’s JUICE proposals. What a pity! The analyst could not even analyse either of the proposals, fanatically repeating the tired ZANU PF chants and denigrating the MDC. I doubt if the young man ever reached A’Level considering the way he repeatedly failed to answer questions (or suggestions) that were being put across by the dull presenter. If this analyst and the presenter are a representation of the kind of people that are regular on national TV, then both ZANU PF and ZTV are doomed to fail. We definitely need media reforms (sacking of all the current staff).

Losing one’s particulars or important documents can bring misery and stress, especially when one thinks of how difficult it is to replace them. I know of a programme on Radio Zimbabwe where announcements are made of lost and found items. This programme has been running for a long time and has assisted a lot of people. Now an online platform has been created by Hansole Investments. The website www.lostandfound.org.zw allows people who might have lost or found items to enter the information and description of these items helping people to connect with what they’ve lost.
