Tafi Mhaka - Children of Mvurwi can you hear our smile less children bellow in indescribable agony and whisper random revelations of hurt-soaked admissions and colossal remorse in the relentless anti-climax Zimbabwe has become? Children of an unreal and fantastical land where sweet honey flows in the cream-filled milk and fresh drops of bountiful wealth lie in every sun scorched savannah in Esigodini and Plumtree: can you hear the fiery and restless cries from countless ancestral spirits that roam haphazardly in these bewildered and rudderless times we live in?

William Muchayi - In fact, it is no mere coincidence that the Makandiwas and Magayas emerge at a time Zimbabwe is in economic doldrums as millions are reduced to paupers due to the debilitating economic hardships that ravage the country. As central government collapses due to mismanagement, the Makandiwas, Magayas, Bushiris, Mboros and Mudungwes emerge to fill the vacuum and give hope to the hopeless.

Ben Semwayo - Before Jacob Zuma assumed the presidency of South Africa he projected the image of a tough-talking, no-nonsense man, signalling that unlike Mbeki his predecessor, he was going to deal with Mugabe decisively, but when he actually became president he just mellowed and morphed into another Mbeki.

Trymore Muhlanga - Government preaches Indigenisation and Local Empowerment. Very noble idea that! Yet here we have Kwese TV, brainchild of our very native Strive Masiyiwa, which hasn't managed to acquire a broadcasting licence for quite some time. Policy Inconsistency?

Tinashe Eric Muzamhindo - I know my assumptions will draw a lot of criticism both at local and international level and many people will label me a sell-out but we must live with reality and not to have guess work. The truth of the matter is Grace Mugabe is on her way for presidency and her ascendancy to the top job will likely to be soon after the watershed election in 2018.
