HARARE – Government has indicated it is open to reviewing vehicle radio licence fees following growing concerns over affordability, as part of broader efforts to ease the cost of doing business in Zimbabwe. Speaking during a Question and Answer session in the National Assembly, Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services Minister Zhemu Soda said authorities are willing to revisit the current fee structure if the public deems it unsustainable.

HARARE – The Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation collected more than US$13.6 million from vehicle radio licence fees in the first half of 2025, according to Information Minister Zhemu Soda.

Lawyers for businessman Simon Rudland have demanded that the Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation (ZBC) retract an article they say falsely accused him of financing violent protests aimed at toppling President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s government.
