The Group has initiate solar energy projects around the country that will generate a combined 25MW upon completion and also contribute electricity into the national grid.

Samuel Matsekete, the group chief executive said the occasion marks the company’s migration to cleaner, renewable, affordable and reliable sources of power for its property portfolio.

“As a business with a vast property portfolio, the migration to a cleaner, renewable and cheaper source of power for our properties was too strong a conviction to ignore. The Mutual Gardens Solar Plant is the first of many that we envisage for our property portfolio,” said Matsekete.

The project, which kick started in March 2020, experienced serious delays due to the logistical hurdles and supply chain disruptions brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The development comes at a time the country is experiencing serious power shortages due to limited energy production which has affected economic activity.

To cover for the energy deficit, Zimbabwe has lost the much needed foreign currency through importing electricity from neighboring countries such as South Africa and Mozambique.

Speaking at the event, Minister of Energy and Power Development, Soda Zhemu commended the group’s efforts in providing alternative smart energy to ease demand on the national grid.

“I am aware that Old Mutual is already a key player in the renewable energy space through investments in projects like the 1.6 MW Kupinga Hydro Energy plant in Eastern Highlands, the 5MW Solgas Energy Power Plant in Hwange and the 5MW Richaw Solar Park in Gwanda among others,”

“Your participation together with participation of your industry collegues will surely propel national power generation capacity to the desired levels thereby cutting down on power import bill,” said Zhemu.

Zimbabwe is currently experiencing a rapid rise in renewable energy investments in line with the global shift from traditional energy sources such as coal which are not environmentally friendly.

Regular screening of breast and early detection of cancer has been cited as a lifesaver in the fight against breast cancer, 263Chat has learnt.

Blessing Shumbamuto, a breast cancer survivor told delegates at a recent Breast Cancer luncheon organized by Troika Design Workshop (TDW), that there is a need for women to have self-tests that can detect early stages of the chronic illness.

“I’m a nurse and was getting my things in order so that I can go work overseas. I remember I had just finished writing my English test when I felt a lump on my breast. I just wanted them to remove it so that I move on with my plans, I didn’t think it was anything serious,” she said.

According to World Health Organization, about 9,8% of cancer incidents is breast cancer.

Shumbamuto highlighted that cancer does not only affect one’s physical health as it heavily weighs down on the patient’s mental health and that of family and caregivers.

“I had to go for surgery and chemotherapy lost my hair, and even developed other conditions as a result but I’m still standing and I know I was able to beat it.

“Don’t fear, go for testing. Early diagnosis saves lives and once you are diagnosed with cancer, be hopeful, don’t lose faith, don’t lose trust in God. Also, just have the vigour to fight and the determination to move on. Cancer is not a death sentence,” she said.

According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), about 1.38 million new cases and 458 000 deaths from breast cancer are recorded each year globally (IARC Globocan, 2008). However, when breast cancer is detected early, and if adequate diagnosis and treatment are available, there is a good chance that breast cancer can be cured.

Breast cancer is a cancerous tumour that occurs in the breast. It is cancer originating from breast tissue, most common from the inner lining of milk ducts or lobules that supply milk.

Currently, there is not sufficient knowledge on the causes of breast cancer, therefore, early detection of the disease remains the cornerstone of breast cancer control.
