WATCH LIVE: Mnangagwa Keeps Mzembi In Jail

Former Zimbabwe Tourism minister, Walter Mzembi appeared in court yesterday. Walter Mzembi appeared in the Harare High Court on Wednesday, 28 January 2026, for the opening of his trial regarding the "TV screens" corruption case. State witnesses, including senior government official Zvinechimwe Ruvinga Churu, gave evidence that largely exonerated him. They testified that as a minister, he was not an "accounting officer" and lacked the legal power to personally dispose of government property. Despite the state’s case appearing to weaken, the High Court denied bail once again, meaning Mzembi remains in custody at Harare Remand Prison. The trial was adjourned and is scheduled to continue on 3 February 2026, when the final state witness is expected to testify. Key Events for today 1. Trump accounts launched 2.

PPC's offer to buy Afrisam was deemed to be undervalued. The African Manufacturers Foundation (AMF) asserts that the impending acquisition of South African cement producer AfriSam by West China Cement Limited represents a setback for African ownership in the manufacturing sector and South Africa’s industrial sovereignty.
