All for the love of meat
I was in the middle of an enchanting mid-summer night’s dream when ear-piercing screams and the sound of an object being repeatedly hit against the wall cut short my sojourn in dreamland.
Liverpool can still win title
Drastic action is set to be taken if the outbreak of coronavirus (Covid-19) ends the Premier League season completely, though Liverpool are reportedly set to be confirmed as champions.
IPEC buoyed by pension industry reforms
For quite a while now, Zimbabwe has suffered from the existence of anaemic regulatory frameworks, or perhaps just outdated ones.
There was a time when moral suasion was used as a strategy to regulate institutions, but that is past. Following the pensions erosion that took place around 2008 due to hyperinflation, Government appointed the Justice Smith Commission of Inquiry to look into the matter.

“OUR greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall,” the great Chinese philosopher Confucius philosophised.
