Zimbabwe has assumed the COMESA chairmanship, with President Emmerson Mnangagwa taking over from Kenya's President William Ruto during the just ended 25th COMESA Summit in Harare.

Cabinet yesterday received an update on Zimbabwe’s National Drug and Substance Abuse Response, with 3,839 people arrested between 1 June and 19 September 2026, including 2,706 under the age of 35.
The update comes as the National Drug, Substance Abuse Control and Enforcement Agency Bill remains under consideration by the Parliamentary Legal Committee. Authorities also recovered drugs worth more than ZIG$26.7 million and recorded 4,243 convictions.
Beyond arrests, what more needs to be done to tackle Zimbabwe’s drug crisis?
