Over past few weeks, some self-hating Zimbabweans have been using the social media to claim that large retailers like OK Zimbabwe are struggling because of a hostile operating environment, which is characterised by a large informal sector and alleged poverty among consumers.

However, the Government, in collaboration with various stakeholders, has taken a number of steps to address this divide and improve digital access for rural schools. The importance of digital technology in education has become even more apparent in recent years, as online learning and digital platforms have become integral to the educational process, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
