Members Of The Zimura New Era Group Come Together In A Peace and Substance Abuse Double Single


 



Written by FFF


Away from the Zimura legitimacy fights and bad publicity, the Zimura New Era Interim Board brought together members for appeal songs to fellow Zimbabweans. The two songs are directed at two current thematic issues, peace and drug abuse. 


Speaking to Phillip Chipfumbu the leader of the Zimura New Era pressure group who revealed that the songs are a dedication to Zimbabwe during the election period and beyond. Phillip went on to say that as musicians they are duty bound to spread messages of national reconciliation and responsibility among citizens.


The two songs were recorded on 26 July at Simba Studios in Westgate. The recording was done from 10 am to the following day at 8 am. I, Fred Farai Finto (FFF) coordinated the event. 20 musicians participated in the project that I believe our government and people of Zimbabwe are going to accept. The songs were composed and recorded right at the same time, you can't put together musicians and fail to get a song or two out of them.


The Zimura members put aside their grievances towards the Albert Nyathi led board at least for a moment to concentrate on the two masterpieces that are going to surprise the nation 


Many a times musical projects are initiated by promotion seeking administrators who usually are not musicians. This was a first for musicians to combine their talents and meagre resources in pursuance of national peace and responsibility among citizens.


The songs are now ready for mixing and mastering which Spokesperson of the Interim Board Bonface Manyonganise reiterated that the project was going to be useful especially during this election period. The songs have about 20 voices and  unknown Learn more Gandani the producer did justice.


Among the voices is Tete Pipilo of the sungura fame, a lot of people are going to appreciate that Tete is a complete musician of no doubt. The melodious Charity Dipa also gave her best vocals that the nation is going to sing along. A young man called Nduna spiced the project with his ethnic Ndebele style, given enough support Nduna will definitely become a national star. Pastor Madzogo added his prayer in the project on the peaceful song yet to be named. Munyaradzi Mupositori Muchetu added his voice too. 


The project is full of surprises, the nation and our region is going to benefit from especially the the anti drug abuse song. The sweet vocals from artists Langton Tapatapa, JK Power Mukoma Chari and Kisswell Chando are unmatched.


Besides being board members Bonface Manyonganise, Phillip Chipfumbu, Jane Marimo, Fred Farai Finto (FFF), Munyaradzi Mupositori Muchetu and Pastor Madzogo added equal value to the project. Other members who took part are Konias Madhombiro, Ja Prophet,  Machona, Dhibhura

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 ...

It’s Not The End Of The World

  Written by Fred Farai Nyakudanga    This story is based on a true story and I have edited names so that someone is inspired out there.

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...
