Are The Chickens Finally Coming Home To Roost

The past few weeks since the beginning of this year, show that 2007, is certainly going to be an interesting year.

Indications are that the people of Zimbabwe, are not only angry but have become a bit more agitated and restless.

For journalists, this is going to be an exciting period in their careers. But also also a dangerous one. The Mugabe regime is known for reacting more viciously when it feels it is being cornered.

However the Co-ordinator of the Zim Journalists Arise, urges Journalists to not only keep safe, but also to be cautious in blindly cheerleading pro-democracy groups. Although journalists are not activists, we urge journalists to continue to criticise these groups, challenge them and hold them accountable to their promises. That way no-one group becomes complacent.

A speacial mention goes to Progressive Teachers Union, secretary general Raymond Majongwe for a job well done. With more Majongwe's Zimbabwe will soon be a free country again.

Happy and Safe Reporting.
