ZIMBABWEAN COUPLE DEPORTED OVER SECRET BURIAL OF CHILD IN BOTSWANA A Zimbabwean couple has been deported from Botswana after secretly burying their child without notifying authorities. Motilinah Mpofu and Christopher Ncube were convicted on Thursday of concealing a death after they allegedly dug a grave for their child in the dead of night. The Gaborone court heard the child had died suddenly. Instead of reporting the death to police, health officials, or traditional leaders, the couple quietly buried the youngster and hoped no one would find out.

Jada Pinkett Smith has revealed today monday through a video she posted that she will not be attending the Oscars or watching it on television,in response to the lack of nominations for people of colour.She said ''I can't help ask the question:Is it time that people of color,recognise how much power and influence we have amassed that we no longer need to ask to be invited anywhere.I ask the question have we now come to a new time and place,where we recognise that we can no longer beg for the love,acknowledgement or respect of any group.That maybe it is time that we recognise of we love,respect and acknowledge ourselves in the way we are asking others to do,then that is the place of true power.I'm simply asking the question.Here is what i believe,the Academy has the right to acknowledge whomever they choose to invite,whomever they choose and now,i think that it is our responsibility now,to make the change.Maybe it is time we pull back our resources and we put them backinto our communities and to our programs,and we make programs for ourselves and that acknowledge us in ways that see us in ways that we see fit,that are just as good,as the so called main stream ones.Here is what i do know-begging for acknowledgement or even asking diminishes dignity,and diminishes power,and we are a dignified people and we are powerful and lets not forget it.Let's let the Academy do that with all grace and love and let's do us differently.I have got nothing but love''.One more photo below.
