UMC reaches out to Shungu Dzevana Trust
October 20, 2018 will be a memorable day for children and staff at Shungu Dzavana Trust Children’s Home who received goodies from the United Methodist Church Harare East District Cluster 3. The cluster is made up of United Methodist churches in Hatfield, Msasa Park, Prospect and Cranborne. It was a touching moment when children at the center recited poems and sang songs welcoming the church entourage. The church donated groceries, stationery and gas worth $1000. Leaders from cluster 3, who included Reverend Joseph Bonga, Reverend John Makaniko and Reverend Noah Chikuni took turns to applaud the great work done at Shungu Dzevana Trust Children’s Home particularly the center’s founder and director Sister Mercy Mutyambizi for creating a conducive and safe place for children.

The citizens’ analysis of government openness
Zimbabwe has been attempting to chart a new way forward under the mantra of the ‘new dispensation’ geared towards respecting the Constitution and the rights of its citizens. Since the military-assisted transition in November 2017, the governing party Zanu PF and the government, particularly the Office of the President, has been on a new trajectory of projecting an image of transparency by issuing out frequent press statements on some issues of national importance. The new president, Emmerson Mnangagwa, is active on social media, which was unheard of under the former Zimbabwean leader Robert Mugabe. During the election period, the government did not switch off the internet even at the height of gross human rights abuses, when six people were shot by the military during the violent demonstrations that rocked Harare on 1 August 2018.
