ONE of the most unique characteristics of pigeons is that they live as a couple and mate their entire life. GUEST COLUMN:TAWANDA TAFIRENYIKA They are a monogamous lot. If the female pigeon hatches one egg, it kills the chick. They always ensure they live as a couple. It is in their DNA. They don’t have the capacity to prostitute. But human beings have the intrinsic propensity to do wrong. They have the proclivity to prostitute and, therefore, there is need for some form of regulation. In the same vein, while article 14 of the world soccer governing body Fifa statutes stipulates that member associations should manage their affairs independently without undue influence from a third party, there is need for some form of control of these member associations. After all, there is nothing like absolute freedom. So, the Sports and Recreation Commission (SRC) — the supreme sports governing body cannot be said to be out of order by acting the way it did — suspending Zifa general-secretary Joseph Mamutse to institute investigations into a number of issues understood to be holding back the development of the game in Zimbabwe. For development to take place in any society, there is need for supervision and SRC — by suspending the Zifa boss to pave way for investigations — is simply performing its mandate as stipulated by the law. Section 30 of the SRC Act allows it to act the way it did. If the Act empowers SRC to register and deregister member associations, there is no justification whatsoever to say that the supreme sports governing body cannot launch an investigation into the conduct of a member association. The SRC did not fire the Zifa chief. It simply asked him to step aside to pave way for investigations into a number of key issues. It would have been problematic if it had fired Mamutse, but the fact that he was only suspended pending investigation, the Gerald Mhlotshwa-led board cannot be said to be out of order. They genuinely believe their actions are meant to help clean up the game dogged by a host of problems for decades which have alienated it from the corporate world. SRC believes that if it folds its arms and watch the game stagnate due to questionable leadership and lack of transparency, it would be tantamount to abrogating its responsibility as a sports regulating body. It is its belief that it will get the backing of Fifa in its bid to reposition Zimbabwean football. While its actions are legitimate and take into consideration the national interest, there are fears that they could backfire as Fifa is likely to impose sanctions on Zifa which would mean the banning of all national teams and local clubs from international competitions. Last year, the SRC wrote to Fifa general-secretary, Fatma Samoura, requesting authority to invoke its powers to remove the entire Zifa leadership from office and replace it with a normalisation committee that would have run the game for a specified period. However, the world soccer governing body trashed the SRC request, saying the conditions prevailing in Zimbabwean football at the t

By ALEXANDRA JAFFE Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — Joe Biden said Thursday that he will ask Americans to commit to 100 days of wearing masks as one of his first acts as president, stopping just short of the nationwide mandate he's pushed before to stop the spread of the coronavirus. The move marks a notable shift from President Donald Trump, whose own skepticism of mask-wearing has contributed to a politicization of the issue. That's made many people reticent to embrace a practice that public health experts say is one of the easiest ways to manage the pandemic, which has killed […]
