Equally Talented Innocent Sibanda Doing Music Part-time

Innocent Sibanda is a jiti inspired musician who works on music part time. This does not mean he isn't equal to the task. Innocent compared the economics of pursuing music and supplementing income. He says very talented passionate musicians end up quitting their talents but when it will be too late to start other avenues. Innocent is based in Ireland where he is working to add on to his family bread basket. His decision to progress into the relentless industry was urged by the legendary Progress Chipfumo and the late icon Oliver Mtukudzi.

Innocent was born in 1983, while growing up music excited. He became a marimba player as a way to fulfil his elation of making music. In 2011 he recorded his first album. Currently he is learning how to play the saxophone while his new album is being polished for release anytime soon.

Innocent’s wish is to make an impact in the society with his music, he is also stimulated to pass on good messages that shape the society. So far he is not doing any live shows but in the near future his wish is to tour world venues with his music.

My obituary to Rev E Kamupira

Written by Fred Farai Nyakudanga Rev E Kamupira was my childhood model of Christianity, his teachings resonated well and shaped my beliefs. I knew Rev E Kamupira since my Sunday School days at St Stephens Chitungwiza Circuit. Sundays weren’t the same each time Rev Kamupira came to preach. Rev Kamupira was a product of United Methodist Church crusade of teachings though he had a Pentecostal touch that kind of made him popular within and without of United Methodist Church. His fearless gospel suited well with congregants in an independent Zimbabwe. From hearing his teachings far away from the terraces I ended up privileged sharing the same church with Rev Kamupira in Waterfalls.

Rev Kamupira was a very respectful person who ...

In the first six months Thomas supported Fadzai with groceries, school fees and rentals. A shift began after Thomas had started seeing other women in South Africa. Thomas started sending money enough for rentals, school fees and a few groceries. The...

The Power of Family Influence

Written by Fred Farai Nyakudanga The African proverb "charity begins at home" takes on a deeper meaning when we consider the profound impact of family on our lives. As I reflect on my own experiences, I realize that the values, beliefs, and behaviors we learn from our families shape us in ways that are both visible and invisible. As a former restaurant manager, I noticed that people's behavior in public spaces was often a reflection of their home environment. Some patrons would leave the toilet spotless, while others would leave it in disarray. The effort we put into maintaining hygiene in our kitchens is often mirrored in our public behavior. This observation led me to realize that our family's influence extends far beyond our childhood years. Our parents' behavior, expectations, and values are imprinted on us from a young age. We mimic their actions, adopt their beliefs, and internalize their criticisms. As we grow older, we begin to make choic...
