Zimbabwe Court Remands Senior Police Officer for Obstructing Justice
- On 28/09/2021
- In News
A Senior Police Officer in Zimbabwe has been remanded by a Magistrate court for obstructing the course of justice.
The Officer Commanding the Police in Mashonaland West province, Commissioner Conneli Dube was arrested by officials of the Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC), attempting to shield four Criminal Investigation Department (CID) officers, Detective Assistant Inspector Moses Million, Detective Assistant Inspector Newton Musende, Detective Sergeant Never Muchekawaya and Detective Constable Justice Mapfanya, who are facing charges of extorting money from one Washington Ongorani.
The police commissioner allegedly withheld the criminal docket for the four, thereby contravening Section 184 (1)(a) of the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Act chapter 9:23.
The docket was prepared by Chief Inspector Elymas Silivani, who proceeded with it to court under prosecutor reference number A225/21.
The court further heard that on March 12, 2021, a public prosecutor returned the docket to the police station with instructions for the investigating officer to return it on March 19, 2021.
The accused, the court heard, instructed one Superintendent Ruwanda to bring the docket to his office, before ordering him to ignore the instruction from the public prosecutor.
The top cop is also said to have ordered Superintendent Ruwanda to keep the docket locked in the district office’s safe until further instructions.
The then Officer Commanding Makonde District, Chief Superintendent Elliot Magomo, the court further heard, approached the accused to inquire why dockets were being kept under lock and key, prompting the accused to claim that it was a directive from his superiors.
On May 13, Magomo wrote to Dube advising him of a complaint from Ongorani who queried why his case was taking too long, but Dube took no action.
The State opposed the bail application on the basis that the accused was a flight risk and was also likely to abscond and interfere with witnesses.Dube appeared Tuesday before the same court for initial remand, and the matter was rolled over to Wednesday for determination of bail.
ZACC’s senior investigations officer, Patrick Madiye argued if granted bail, Dube could influence or intimidate some of the witnesses who were his subordinates.
Madiye also told the court that the accused had influenced the transfer of two senior officers from the province.
The Provincial magistrate, Ruth Moyo denied Dube bail insisting that the senior police officer could interfere with witnesses.Also read-Legalizing Crime and Criminality

False Teachings and True Riches by Prof. Sabitu Olagoke
- On 20/09/2021
- In Special Report
Presently,it is very difficult to differentiate believers from unbelievers in terms of attitude.The Holy Quran 25 : 44,therefore satisfies the curiosity of the just at the waywardness level of adherents of almost all religious bodies in the nation.
‘’Thinkest thou that most of them listen or understand ? Their holy like cattle,nay, they are farther astray from the way.’’
The Holy Quran 10 :36 further infers,’’Most of them follow nothing but conjecture : truly conjecture can be of no avail against Truth.Verily Allah is well aware of all that they do.’’
In the present time several religious practices have been overwhelmed by false teachings and true riches as suggested in the Holy Bible, 1Timothy 6 :3–10, ‘’As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine,
6 From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling;
7 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.
8 But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully;

The Holy Quran attests to the submissions above by warning in64 : 15–16,’’ Your riches and your children,but a trial :whereas Allah is with Him is the highest reward.So fear Allah as much as ye can; listen and obey; and spend in charity for the benefit of your own souls and those saved from the covetousness of their own souls-they are the ones that achieve prosperity.
In the Holy Quran 2 : 45 the right approach recommended by true religious worship makes this assertion for people that want to get rich, most especially through the dignity of labor. ‘’Nay,seek Allah’s help with patience, perseverance and prayer :It is indeed hard except to those who are humble.’’
The restoration of true teaching and true riches must be based on been scripture compliant as adherents of all sects and denominations in all religious systems.
The Holy Quran 16 :125 refers,’’Invite all to the ways of the Lord with wisdom and beautiful preaching(counseling);and argue(dialogue)with them in ways that are best(without hate speech) and most gracious(without holier than thou or air of arrogance and insult) : for thy Lord knowest best,who have strayed from His path and who receive guidance.’’
Therefore,let us avoid false teaching and the quick money making syndrome, but instead follow a righteous path of scripture compliance to have the fear of God for the purpose of restoring our core values of integrity,sanity and a well ordered society bequeath able as a legacy for posterity.

A Warning about False teachers by Prof. Sabitu Olagoke
- On 14/09/2021
- In Special Report
The whole world is in disarray mainly because it has been overwhelmed by false teachings, whereas only truth can avail a nation.The Almighty Allah even said in the Holy Quran 29: 44, ''Allah created heaven and the earth in truth: verily in that is a sign of those who believe.''
Allusion from that proves that a house with foundations of falsehood through materials of inferior quality will never stand the test of time.
Any idea, conceived, therefore, through falsehood, may not be able to stand the test of quality and standard certification. This extends to friendship, marriage, business, and the worship of God.
By extension, appointment into positions of power and governance through faulty electoral processes will never be able to deliver the expected services.
Religion ought to be the last resort for human healing and salvation, most especially in the area of correcting the aberration in the land.

However, the religious sector is now having several self-acclaimed clerics driving the vehicle of divinity through juju or the magical wand. This is why many nations are experiencing injustice, marginalization, insecurity, and poverty.
The Holy Bible in 1 Timothy 4: 1-2 refers, ''Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;''
One can now easily understand while several nations fail in management and administration through poor governance, despite the fact that in such nations they could lay claims to having Doctors of Law, religious leaders, and Professors in various fields of human endeavor and with a countless number of houses of God.
Unfortunately, false teachers with false adherents will ever mislead the nation and plunge resources into waste because they follow false doctrines driven by satanic influences.
False teachers abuse the sacredness of knowledge, purity of wisdom and prevent ultimately the intervention of the power of a discerning mind.
A case study of Moses and Pharoah on false doctrines and genuine tenets refers to the Holy Quran 20: 69-70, ''Throw that which is in thy right hand. Quickly will it swallow up that which they have faked: what they have faked is but a magician's trick: and the magician succeeds not. So the magicians were thrown into prostration. They said we believe in the Lord of Aaron and Moses.''
The above analogy of a case study for a paradigm shift from religious adulteration into accepting the concept of puritanism to be holistic in worship as well as the role modeling of exemplary lifestyles devoid of fraud, corruption, murder, and other satanic symbols of destruction. This is a clear warning for false teachers to pray against deceptive teachings, not to throw the nations into a chaotic situation, and not to render the essence of being alive unrealistic and fatal.
The Holy Quran 4: 50-52 refers, '' Behold! How they invent a lie against Allah! But that by itself is a manifest sin. Has thou not turn thy thought to those who are given a portion of the book? They believe in sorcery, Tagut, and say to the unbelievers that they are better guided in the right way than believers!''
They are men whom Allah have cursed: and those whom Allah has cursed, thou wouldst find, have no one to help.''
The expectation of God of mankind is that we should use religion to detoxify the bad blood and ferocity of character into that of a loving, harmless human being with beneficial peaceful co-existence.
Stop false teaching and be decisive on the truth in teaching the scriptures to produce good citizens and good governance for the nation. Be just.

Hope
- On 09/09/2021
- In Special Report
Hope is captured in the Scripture as a state that can only be realized through walking the talk of one's chosen faith, but only in an environment of love.
It, therefore, has a close relationship with one's destiny as a goal of human struggle for survival which can only be realized in part because of the frictions of life against which the energy for the struggle vectorially moves through a relative velocity for one's destiny to be terminated into a destination.
This is why some scholars see hope as a desire accompanied by an expectation of fulfillment. Hope can be viewed through the perspective of self as an individual and we as a community or nation.
Hope realization, therefore, is best driven through a self resolution to meet up with all conditions for him or her to be able to blaze the trail.
This equally subject to the favorable conditions of the 8 pointers of wellness.
Troubled souls are usually faced with frustrations which if not well controlled may lead to a suicidal note for premature termination of hope, age, and the ultimate, a life of fulfillment. Emotional disturbance is another psychological factor that must be controlled otherwise building of hope would be dashed.
Finances and physiological needs determine one's access to a better active life upon which hope can be realized when one falls short of this grace, the hope may not materialize in one's desired goal, cutting short one's destiny into a fatal destination.
Lazy people, therefore, will suffer from dashed hopes, most especially when such a person lacks goodwill and a positive disposition towards others.
Hardworking people who follow due process in realizing their hopes and aspirations may take some much time to be appreciated in an environment where double-dealing and other forms of illegalities are the order of the day through devilish connections.
The hopes of any nation and community, therefore, lie in the ability of their leaders to keep a nation or community without fraud in an environment of zero tolerance to corruption and institutional indiscipline. However, the virtues can only be realized when leaders are visionary with the determination to live by a sense of patriotism for a bequeathable legacy.
It takes two to tango-the government and the people. If leaders are transparent and accountable, they would become dependable and people will overwhelmingly shower such leaders with their trust, sense of patriotism, and unimaginable sense of endurance.When there is an economic downward effect on such a nation, people will naturally persevere through the troubled times and keep their hopes alive that there would be a better tomorrow based on their leaders' efforts and assurances.
Hope, therefore, is a natural in-built characteristic into every mortal which he or she experiences every day based on the events of the time, most especially in his or her growing period, trying period, and when under the fear of not missing the state of equilibrium in wealth and affluence.
People should, therefore, not lose hope, but make self-adjustment towards having a good disposition, high spirit to supplement the missing pointers in the state of his or her wellness.
