WE rarely get compliments in this job and we fully understand it because we are not here to make people look good even when they are very bad.
We are a tabloid and our job is to dig deep and cast a spotlight on things which many would rather have buried under the surface.
However, we don’t wake up every morning to just focus on negatives.
We also love the feel-good positive stories, like when our artists do well or when our national teams turn on the style.
That is why you always find that when our Warriors do well, we splash them on the front page because we believe they set the tempo of the mood of our nation.
Now, and again, we do get some compliments.
Yesterday, was one of those cases and the compliments came from the United Methodist Church.
It follows our decision to publish, in the past two years, two photographs congratulating two individuals who had attained full membership into the Mubvuwi WeUnited Methodist Church.
We published the first one, about Ranganai Tinashe Dzotizei, last year, and yesterday we published the second one about Tinashe Kelvin Manyetu.
“Seems H-Metro is becoming a good librarian of these historic moments for us the young guard,” noted Dzotizei, who is one of the church’s leading digital content distributors, on his social media platforms.
“A tale of two Tinashes, badged in the same month in consecutive years, united by a brotherly and musical bond stretched over a decade.
“I guess when Reward Kufakwedeke goes blue, it will be just ideal that we shake the Insukamini story to the world then, a tale of sacrifice, pain, yet a tale of discovery, which has brought the three main characters into focus.”
He added:
“Robson Sharuko and your team, thank you, in a way we shall show our future children these cuttings as souvenirs that it did happen.
“We shall tell them that fabled old adage in these parts – church ya Jesu Kristu inochengetwa dakara kumagumo using these special moments.
“This, too, is shaping and demystifying a narrative, a narrative underlined by commitment, sacrifice, neutralising fear in certain quarters that comes with taking such a bold step and it its truest meaning.
“Who said November is a sacred months? Well, November, for the Tinashes is a month of new beginnings, a month of grace, a month of breaking new ground. Good things can still happen in November.
“It is poignant that we pay tribute to our fathers, Sekuru Manyetu (now late) and Sekuru Dzotizei for raising us well.
“Today, their sons are picture items in a national tabloid for the right reasons, that is never easy.”
