25 Oct 2024  |  nehandaradio.com  |  English  |  Football Leadership

Cephas Chimedza, a former Zimbabwe Warriors player, advocates for Peter Ndlovu to run for the ZIFA presidency, emphasizing his extensive football experience and leadership skills.

The interview highlights the need for football-focused leadership within ZIFA.

Good Harvest Fails to Dent Rising Hunger in Zimbabwe

29 Jan 2015  |  www.ipsnews.net  |  English  |  Poverty

Despite a good harvest, Zimbabwe continues to face rising hunger, with 2.2 million rural people estimated to be food insecure. Agriculture contributes 20% to the GDP, with tobacco exports playing a significant role. However, food shortages persist since the controversial land reform in 2000. The World Food Programme reported high levels of hunger, which was dismissed by the deputy agricultural minister. Funding shortages have limited WFP's reach, and the government has had to import maize. Experts suggest investing in smallholder farmers, irrigation, infrastructure, and market regulation to improve food security. The government's provision of inputs and failure to pay farmers on time for produce are also highlighted as issues. Zimbabwe's commitment to the Maputo Declaration on investing in agriculture is questioned, as only a few African countries have met the target. The need for a conducive political and economic environment for investment and the provision of title deeds to farmers are also discussed.

Africa: Target 'Niche' Chinese Travelers, Not Numbers, Tourism Experts Tell Africa

07 Aug 2023  |  allAfrica.com  |  English  |  Chinese Travelers

African countries are heavily investing in attracting Chinese tourists to recover from COVID-19 pandemic losses. Experts suggest focusing on niche markets rather than mass tourism, emphasizing unique cultural and wildlife experiences. Challenges include government inefficiency and complicated visa processes. Marketing efforts should target diverse interests and leverage Chinese social media platforms. Business travelers from China present an additional opportunity to boost leisure tourism.
