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.

In loving memory of Mrs. Josephine Machuma (Nee Matongo)

  Written by Fred Farai Nyakudanga   Mrs. Machuma played a pivotal role in shaping my Christian values and that of many during her time as a Sunday School teacher at St. Stephen United Methodist Church in the early 80s. Her catechism teachings strengthened my faith in the birth and death of Jesus Christ, and her picturesque illustrations of God’s omnipotence and omniscience remain vivid in my mind. As a dedicated teacher with stints at Zengeza 5 and 8 Primary Schools, Mrs. Machuma was known for her blunt yet nurturing approach. She would candidly address shortcomings, and her passion for education was evident. Many students, including myself, benefited from her guidance, and I’m sure many share my sentiments about her calling to educate. Together with her husband, Mr. Shepherd Machuma, the family embodied the good teachings of John Wesley. Their union, bound by vows of love and commitment, was a testament to the power of marriage. Even in separation, their love remains unwaver...

United Methodist Church: A Path of Continuous Improvement

   Written by Fred Farai Nyakudanga  As a product of the United Methodist Church, I've come to realize the immense value of the administrative, business and leadership skills that the church imparts. Initially, I didn't appreciate these aspects, but after exploring other denominations, I returned to the United Methodist Church, recognizing its exceptional leadership development opportunities.

Through the United Methodist Church, I've developed strong decision-making skills, strategic thinking, and effective communication. These skills have, in turn, fostered my commitment to transparency and social justice, which are now core values that I uphold in all my endeavors. I've come to expect accountability and fairness in any group or associa...

Richness is Not a Coincidence, While Poverty is a Choice

  Written by Fred Farai Nyakudanga  Even when circumstances seem to offer no alternatives, choices still exist. These choices might be limited, oppressive, or unappealing, but they are choices nonetheless. The decision to pursue richness, unlike the circumstances that lead to poverty, is often deliberate and hard-won. Richness is not a chance occurrence; it is created. Those who achieve it have typically made conscious decisions, defying odds and pushing beyond familiar territories. In contrast, poverty often results from coerced or timid choices, stemming from situations created by those who comprehend the nature of richness. Strategies to Evade Poverty 1. Seek Opportunities, Even When None Seem Apparent : Be proactive, network, think creatively, and take calculated risks. 2. Don't Wait for Validation from Others ; Take Initiative: Self-validate, set your own goals, take ownership, and be decisive. 3. Overcome Objections and Challenges : Anticipate obstacles, develop problem-...
