Zimbabwe: Spend Big On Education Not Military, Says Mliswa As He Donates 25 Heifers and Bull to Varsity Research

Speaking during a book launch at Chinhoyi University of Technology last week, Mliswa said it was folly to give huge chunks of money to the army while neglecting higher and tertiary education as the military sector also relies on research and development to successfully wage and win wars.

"There is no country which can go forward without research. I have always wondered honourable minister why your budget is always low because research is ongoing, but wars come and go and not research," said Mliswa. The heifer donation extended at the varsity's inception early 2000s, was however fraught with controversy amid claims the politician looted the beasts from a dispossessed white commercial farmer in Karoi.

ChatGPT set to be a major disruptor in education, sending teachers into a panicThe emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) platform ChatGPT in November not only signalled a major step forward in technology but has been hailed by academics as “a technological revolution never seen before”. Well not all is positive as it means the education system needs to be updated to keep up with this new technology.
