VICE-PRESIDENT Constantino Chiwenga yesterday warned that the COVID-19 pandemic could soon blow out of control as the majority of Zimbabweans were reluctant to follow safety measures prescribed by government and health experts. BY PRAISEMORE SITHOLE Chiwenga made the remarks at a health expo and COVID-19 awareness cycling campaign in Makokoba, Bulawayo. Chiwenga, who doubles as Health minister, said government was worried that citizens were reluctant to wear masks and sanitise their hands. “It is unfortunate that some people in their own wisdom decide to engage in a relaxed mode. As of November 11, cumulative cases stood at 8 666, with 366 active cases, 255 deaths and 8 046 recoveries,” he said. “About 1 468 were imported cases and 7 199 were transmitted locally. The cases that we got in other countries are now few. So let us be very careful as a nation. “It has become a common feature to catch sight of our brothers and sisters disregarding wearing masks. If they wear those, most of them are left hanging like a necklace.” “Scientists have said the virus targets mostly those with weaker systems, but I say, it targets those who are more reckless. The virus is real and it kills, we want to prevent it because we do not want to lose any life due to the virus,” Chiwenga said. “Some of our neighbouring countries have higher cases and we should be very careful because the situation is not good. The rate at which the virus is transmitted locally is now the most worrying,” he said. “Vagaries of the pandemic have continued to adversely impact on the socio-economy of our citizens and subsequently, the national and collective security,” Chiwenga said. “The pandemic has militated one of the worst economic recessions for many countries that were left with no choice but to turn to the Bretton Woods and other institutions for financial support,” he said. The event was attended by Bulawayo Metropolitan Affairs minister Judith Ncube, Sports minister Kirsty Coventry and Industry and Commerce deputy minister Raji Modi.

I come to you from a liberated South Africa, a nation that many of you helped to set free. I come from a continent about which more is written but less is understood; so I come with a message that is straight-forward and simple. Like the Apostle Paul on his return from the provinces, I come to bring good news, but I also come with an appeal for your support of a new generation of Africans who have a bold, new futurist vision for their countries and their continent; but who live for the moment between two worlds, an old order that is dying but not yet dead and a new order that is conceived but not yet born.
The reports coming out of Africa are often confusing and contradictory:
Transformation and reconciliation in Southern Africa; conflict and crisis in Central Africa; new leaders with new vision in some areas and old leaders desperately hanging onto the past in others. It is now obvious that one can not speak of Africa as one continuous stream of ideas and social arrangements providing either cultural unity or political uniformity. There is much that unites Africans; W.E.B. Dubois reminded us at the turn of the century of the common bond created by the problem of the color line, for example. But the first thing that must be accepted and acknowledged by any one who dares to write or speak about the new Africa is that what seems self-evident in one area may not be the reality in another. Far too many people who would not dare to speak of a homogeneous Europe or Asia speak of the more than fifty independent nations of Africa as if the continent was a single political entity.
