This multi-million-dollar development promises to redefine urban living in Zimbabwe and place Harare firmly on the global map as a hub of luxury and innovation. Speaking during a media tour of the construction site, Paul Tungwarara, Chairman of Prevail Group International, expressed his excitement and optimism about the project’s potential to transform Harare into a world-class destination. “We are bringing Dubai’s grandeur to Zimbabwe,” he said, gesturing toward the bustling construction activities. “Our vision for Cyber City is to create a dynamic space that combines luxury, innovation, and sustainability. This project aligns perfectly with President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s Vision 2030 of transforming Zimbabwe into an upper-middle-income economy by 2030.” The first phase of Cyber City focuses on 50 ultra-modern villas, which are slated for completion by March 2025. These high-end residences are designed to offer residents a luxurious and futuristic living experience, with cutting-edge technology and bespoke architectural designs. “These villas will set a new benchmark for luxury living in Zimbabwe,” Dr. Tungwarara revealed. “We are committed to delivering unparalleled quality and style, making this a community that embodies the aspirations of Vision 2030.” The villas are just the beginning. Once completed, the project will expand to include duty-free malls, providing a shopping experience unlike any other in the country. “The duty-free malls will offer residents and visitors a taste of international retail, blending global brands with local craftsmanship,” Dr. Tungwarara explained. A standout feature of Cyber City will be its majestic tower, designed to dominate the Harare skyline as a symbol of progress and modernity. Alongside this architectural gem will be an enchanting display of dancing waters, reminiscent of Dubai’s famed fountains. These elements aim to create a vibrant, cosmopolitan atmosphere that will attract both locals and international tourists. “Our tower and dancing waters are not just about aesthetics; they’re about creating a unique identity for Cyber City,” Dr. Tungwarara remarked. “We want people to feel the pulse of innovation and luxury when they visit here. This is a celebration of Zimbabwe’s potential and a step toward achieving the national vision.” Beyond the stunning visuals and luxurious amenities, Cyber City is expected to have a significant economic impact. The project is creating hundreds of jobs during its construction phase and promises to be a hub for investment and tourism upon completion. Additionally, it aims to integrate sustainable practices to ensure minimal environmental impact. Dr. Tungwarara emphasised the broader vision of Cyber City: “This is not just about buildings; it’s about building a future. We are creating a space where people can live, work, and play in harmony. Cyber City represents a new chapter for Harare and Zimbabwe as a whole. It’s an integral part of our journey toward Vision 2030.” Cyber City’s construction marks a pivotal moment in Zimbabwe’s urban development. With its blend of luxury, technology, and cultural significance, the project embodies a bold vision for the country’s future. As the villas near completion and plans for the malls, tower, and dancing waters unfold, anticipation is building for what promises to be a game-changer for Harare. “We are confident that Cyber City will not only transform the landscape of Harare but also inspire other developments across Zimbabwe,” Dr. Tungwarara concluded. “This is a legacy project, and we are proud to be part of shaping the future of our nation in line with Vision 2030.” As the sun sets over the construction site, the vision of Cyber City becomes ever clearer: a shimmering beacon of progress and possibility, bringing a touch of Dubai to the heart of Africa.

MIAMI (AP) — The NBA is urging its players to take additional precautions to secure their homes following reports of recent high-profile burglaries of dwellings owned by Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis , Minnesota Timberwolves guard Mike Conley Jr. and Kansas City Chiefs teammates Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce. In a memo the NBA sent to its team officials, a copy of which was obtained by The Associated Press, the league revealed that the FBI has connected some burglaries to “transnational South American Theft Groups” that are “reportedly well-organized, sophisticated rings that incorporate advanced techniques and technologies, including pre-surveillance, drones, and signal jamming devices.” Conley's home was broken into on Sept. 15 when he was at a Minnesota Vikings game and jewelry was taken, officials told the Minneapolis Star-Tribune. Portis said his home was broken into on Nov. 2 and has offered a $40,000 reward for information related to the incident. The homes of Mahomes and Kelce were broken into within days of each other last month, according to law enforcement reports, and the NFL issued a similar warning memo to its teams this week. The NBA memo, relaying information from the FBI, said the theft rings “are primarily focused on cash and items that can be resold on the black market, such as jewelry, watches, and luxury bags.” The NBA, which has also been giving guidance to team security personnel, recommended that players install updated alarm systems with cameras and utilize them whenever leaving the home, keeping valuables in locked and secured safes, remove online real estate listings that may show interior photos of a home, “utilize protective guard services” during extended trips from the home and even suggested having dogs assist with home protection. Story continues below video “Obviously, it’s frustrating, disappointing, but I can’t get into too many of the details because the investigation is still ongoing,” Mahomes recently said. “But, obviously, something you don’t want to happen to anybody, but obviously yourself.” One of the break-ins involving the Chiefs players happened on a game day — Oct. 7 — and Portis was also playing a game when his home was robbed. “They took most of my prized possessions,” Portis said.

House vote to determine fate of ethics report into Matt Gaetz after committee stalls actionGeorgetown is set to play its first road game of the season while West Virginia attempts to build off its successful 2-1 trip to the Bahamas when the former conference rivals meet on Friday in Morgantown, W. Va., as part of the Big 12-Big East Battle. Picked 13th out of 16 in the Big 12 preseason coaches' poll, West Virginia (5-2) has been riding the hot shooting of Javon Small and Tucker DeVries. Small averages a team-high 19 points and shoots 41.3 percent on 3-pointers while DeVries adds 14.9 points per game and hits on 46.9 percent of his threes. Every basket was needed last week as the Mountaineers upset then-No. 3 Gonzaga and then-No. 24 Arizona with a loss to Louisville sandwiched in between. All three contests went into overtime, believed to be a first in program history. First-year coach Darian DeVries, who led Drake to three NCAA Tournaments in the last four seasons, had never seen anything like it. "I've never been a part of three games like that, especially with the quality of opponents that we went up these last three days," he said after the Arizona win. "Just incredible resolve and grit and toughness from our group all three nights." Georgetown has started 7-1 for the first time since the 2018-19 season and has done so with a completely revamped roster that includes 14 freshmen or sophomores. As a result of an inexperienced squad, coach Ed Cooley specifically delayed the Hoyas' first trip out of the nation's capital. "Obviously, the competition is going to change," Cooley said after the Hoyas defeated UMBC 86-62 on Monday. "We systematically scheduled this way to build confidence, continuity and chemistry and let our players feel what it is to win, and that's something hopefully that will have some carryover as we now get ready to head out on the road for the first time." Since losing to Notre Dame on Nov. 16, Georgetown has won five straight games by an average of 25.2 points. Thomas Sorber leads the Hoyas in scoring at 15.8 points per game and leads the conference in rebounding at 8.9 per game. Sorber was named as the Big East Freshman of the Week for the third time in four weeks. Georgetown holds the narrowest of leads in the all-time series at 27-26. The two schools met 27 times between 1995 and 2012 as league foes. The Mountaineers captured their lone Big East Championship in 2010 by defeating the Hoyas 60-58 at Madison Square Garden. --Field Level MediaNone

SEOUL (AFP) – The senior South Korean military chief in charge of a brief period of martial law said yesterday he knew nothing in advance about President Yoon Suk Yeol’s plans. Yoon suspended the civilian government late Tuesday but was forced into a U-turn hours later after lawmakers voted down the measure. He faces an impeachment vote tomorrow. Yesterday lawmakers grilled senior figures, including army chief of staff for the army General Park An Su, about the plans to impose martial law. “I came to know about the martial law declaration after watching Yoon’s live address (on television),” Park told Members of Parliament. He added that there was a meeting of top military officials after the broadcast, and it was there he discovered he had a role to play in the suspension of civilian rule. “I found out I had been named martial law commander when the defence minister announced it – declaring ‘the martial law commander is army general Park An Su’ after the meeting,” Park said. Park said he signed a decree banning anti-government political activities, allowing warrantless arrests and media censorship – but he told lawmakers he did not write it. When he suggested it be reviewed for legality, he was told it had already been done by Defence Minister Kim Yong Hyun – who has since resigned and is now under a travel ban. Park said that all he did was change the time on the document. He also claimed to know nothing about soldiers being sent to the office and home of prominent YouTube personality Kim Eo Jun – rather than major state broadcasters. “I am hearing about it for the first time now,” he told lawmakers.
