Which one is the legal demonstration in Zimbabwe? I haven't observed it in here iam 78 years old now, will one person in this country be able to perform it? How when where? No democracy only military rule dictators unsculptured protractor image of evil. I thought that the devil is a spirit no a human being and they are many father devil mugabe and his followers like a family. Hell is here with the forefront core who attend the flame up of other people, appearing as a leader. Hell master is you who the nation blame, when you feel sadc is more important than your race

on as much as there was overloading and probably human error, the roads are in deplorable state. some vehicles are unroadworthy while the bulk of the roads are unvehicleworthy. its high time the minister of roads resigns, he/she/it has failed dismally

R.I.P to the deceased. It's high time the relevant authorities take the necessity measures to stop this road carnage right in its tracks. Allowing a culture of impunity to flourish is the cause of all this. Road rules and regulations must be observed up to each fullstop

RESPONSE TO "@CHRISTIAN" IRO CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP OF A VEHICLE WHOSE ONWER IS NOW DECEASED:-
@Christian, all you need to do is to register a Deceased Estate of your late relative by approaching the Master of High Court. You will be guided throughout the whole process by the staff in the Master's office. The procedure includes the identification and preparation of an inventory relating to the deceased person's assets and the associated liabilities list, as well as identifying beneficiaries of the estate.
Ultimately, a distribution account showing the appropriation of the proceeds/assets among beneficiaries is prepared by the appointed executor subject to the Master's approval as well as satisfying certain statutory requirements, ie payment of estate duty, laying the distribution account at the High Court for inspection by any person who is entitled to file an objection if necessary, etc.
If you follow this process, the change of onwership in respect of the vehicle under discussion becomes pretty easy and lawful !!
