Duties/ resPonsibilities
Installation of a chief
Installation of a chief refers to the process of appointing a person to assurne the position
of
chieftainship. This is done i, a specialised h-aditional a.cl ritual seremony. Installation
of
chicfs can bc done in different ways in various cnlturcs.
Ndebele culture
When aNdebele chief is installecl, he sits on the thtone during his installation and is given
a .leopard skin to wear as a symbol of power and high ofiice. The chiets wear the
leopard
skin on their waist whitst the kings wear it over rheir shoulder.s. A spear is also handed
over to him as a symbol of power. The chief is covered with medicirral fat throughout
his
body in a process called ukugcotshwa to irnpart dignity, adrniration and respect. Chiefs
arc
installed from the royal farnily. This means the chief's brother or any of the chief's solls
can
assutne chrellainship aftcr a chief has died. The end of thc installation process is rnarked
with
presetttation of gifts to the new chief such as cattle, chicken, goats and
sheep by his people.
Shona culture
The shc'na chief.s are believcd to be choscn fi'orn the royal f'anrily by the spirit mediums.
The ceremonial ritual of installing a chief is done with all village heads an4 heaclmen
present. The new chief is rnade to carry the corpse of his prcdece ssor
down a slope to
where he is to lower it into the cave for burial. This process is done to rnake the new
chief courageous' After this process, tlre new chicf sits in front of the people during
the
installation cerelnony where he is given chiefly ernblems. The emblems include a ritual
dress (r'oyalty of the chief). a spear (symbol of pr-rwer) and a handf'ul of soil to indicate
that he is the custodian of the land. After the installation ceremony, peoplc prcsent gif
ts
to their tlew chief as a sigtt of loyalty. A traclitional party can be organised to celebrate.

Burial of chief.s
The death of a chief is highly considered as a great loss to the cornmunity. When a chief
dies. the llews is not imrnediately communicated. This is because there are cultural practices
and procedur:es that should be followed. It is also done to prevent people from fighiing over
the position as well as avoiding panic within the people. The news ii also prevented from
reaching the enemies in order to avoid the society from being invaded without a chief. Chiefs
are buried secretly in a cave known in Shona as Ninga. Only the choseu village elders atteld
the burial' In prc-colonial Zimbabwe, the elders would go to a far way place for so,re days
to dry the chief's body before burial in a bid to preserve it. This was done by cutting open
the chief's stomach and rernoving the intestinus. After d.yirg the body (mummificatioi),:rt is
wrapped with cattle hide ready for burial in a secret cave. After the secret burial, the people
would be informed of the chief's death and funeral procession will be done as if the chief has
died on that day. A fake burial is done and a sacred holiday known in Shona as mahakurinnt,e
where people are not allowed to worlc is pronounced to mark the mourning of tfre chief. The
chief's speal'is then handed over to the next new chief.

lmportance of maps and charts fbr travelling purposes
Travel maps are documents that contain detailecl information about places from
routes,
landforms and other various sites. They show major roacls and railway
lines that connect cities
ans well as all the roads in a town, city or any location. In addition,
tr-avel maps also show the
location of building. Maps are interpreted with the aicl of a specialised key that
is found on
the document. In addition, maps also have a compass that show the direction
ancl a scale for
measuring actual distances. Travel maps can be accessed from inforrnation
centres, suveyor
general's oflice and some fuel service stations.
Distance chart diagranrs are important diagrams that show actual distances
between cities and
town. Bclow is an example of a distance chart showing distances in kilometres;

Pollution
Pollution is thc introd.uction of hannfirl substances to thc environment.
It can be classified into
three groups r.vhich are water, land and air.
Water
This is the coutamination of'water boclies such as rivers, Iakes.
oceans and other water sources.
Industrial wastc is one of thc nrajor causes of water poilution. Raw
sewage {inds its way int.
streams and rivers in towus and cities thereby polluting the
water. Munyale River, Mukuvisi
Rivor and Lakc Chivero are sorne of thc watcr bodls that have
b.r, g."atly pollurecl by
sewage and industrial waste' In mining areas, rnercury used to
trap gold .id, up in rivers and
dams' This nretal has serious cft'ects on people's healih when
the water is consumecl. In urban
al'eas, tltele sot'ue vehicles tirat spiil oil which is later
washed into rivers by r:un-off water.
Pesticides and herbicides also pollute the water.
Land
It is the deposition of solid or liquid waste rnaterials on land. Land pollutants inolucle
nlunicipal waste, construction waste and dernolition waste or debris as
well as animal excreta.
Dumping of waste from householtls in areas that are not tlumping sites
also causes lancl
pollution.
Air
This is the emissiou of dangerous gases into the atmosphere. Such pollutants
are emitterl
into the air by hutnan activities fi'otn tnanufacturing industries and transpodation.
Tlre rnajor
gases that pollute the air include tritrogen oxidc, uart:on
dioxide, sulphu, oxide as well as
volatile organic ctlnrpounds. Air pollution is very high in industrial
areas.

The way in which people get married depends on one's religion'
different marriage practices as expiained below:
i lt7
1r \
Ku tizira/ukubalekela (elopement)
This is when a womall goes td stay with the man before payment of the
bnde price. The
elopement can be facilitated by pregnanoy or a mutual agreement
between the two. It is
customaly for the woman to be escorted by the aunt to the man's family
where she lvill
hand over her niecc. Hr:wcveq in clther oases the woman can
elope without the consent of
her family. This will require the rnan to pay the woman's farnily a reasonable
amount of
money (not fixed) called tsvakirai kuno. Such a payment notifies
the woman,s family of their
daughter's elopment as well as the man taking responsibility.
Kuzvarira/ukuzalelwa (Child pledging)
This typc of nrarriage is when a tamily agrees or prtrrniscs to providc
a briclc ro another family.
In such a case, the girl grows up being protectetl as she erwaits to be married
to the family she
was pronlised to until she reaches a mafure agc. The wolnan is not given
a choice or say in
the arraugemetrt. Sr-rch rvpe of a man'iage is motivated by various
.Ju*o.r, that would befall
a family which include hunger or cotnmitment of crimes towards
another fbmily. Therefore,
child pledgirrg would be regarded as the paynrent. This rype of marriage now
is di.scourageci
as it violates ltutnan rights of both the girl and thc lnan to whorn
shc is to be married to.
Musengabere (abduction of a woman)
Tlris is the act of taking an Llrunarried wonran to be a wife by force
whilst s5e is unaware and
without her approval. This type of rnaniage involves grabbing. canying and running
with the
unrnarried wolran to the lran's homestead frorrr any strategic place (usually
on her way to or
tiom tbtching water or lirewood). rf the man is successtul. the womun *oul,l be accepied

will then start
with the young man sending a token to the wornan's family aterting them that the

with hirn' Musengabere was practiced in pre-colonial Zimbabrve and is now treated
as an
unlawful act that violates the rights of the woman.
Kuganhal ukugana
This is a type of marriage that gives the r.r,oman decicling powers. It involves
a wo*an eloping
to a tnan of her choice without his approval after shc would have failed
to entice hinr to ,"r..V
her. Elders in the society or the matl's family play the role of elcouraging
the ma, to accept
thc wonran as failurc to acccpt thc wouran is oonsiclerecl an insult to th;
ancestors. Such a
marriage is no longer accepted by the law ancl society because it violates
the rights of men.
Chimu tsamapliwa/ chimeta masisi
This is a type of maniage that involves replacernent of a wife by the deceased
wife's family. .
In such a case, the in-laws would chosc a rightful candidate fi'om their family to rcplace
rhcir
deceased relatives in the man'iage. This is done to maiutain relations
betweeu the two families
especially when the in-laws are wealthy. Some people are still practising
this type of rnaniage
but it is not as comtrron as it was long ago.

are fundamentalto Islam and the Quran mentions names of some angels such as Gabriel and
Michael. There is a belief that Muhammad met several angels during his journey to heaven.
Angels communicate revelation from Allah and records every person's actions.
Pnlplrcts
Muslims believe that prophets are humans that were chosen by Allah in the past to convey His
lnessage, warnings, glad tidings and teachings. Prophets were instructed by Allah to bring His
will to the people of the nations. However, eveu though they believe in prophets, the Muslims
acknowledge that prophets are human beings and are not divine even though they were able
to perform miracles. The Quran speaks of prophets such as Abraham, Moses, David and Jesus
Christ. According to the Muslims, the prophet Muhamrnad was the last messenger of Allah to
the whole world.
liar ol'judgcrrrtrrt
Yawn'ad-Din is the day of judgement according to the Islamic religion. On the day of
judgement, they believe thatAllah will decide on how people will spend their life after death.
This judgement will be determined by the choices made in life as Allah gives everyoue the
right to choose their destiny. Muslims believe that people are responsible fbr their deeds. On
the day ofjudgement, the Muslims believe thatAllah will resurrect the dead from their graves
and give thern booklets about their life. The booklets will be read in the presence of other
people. The good people will go to heaven whilst the bad are sent to hell.
Burial
In Islam Religion, as soon as one dies, the body is washed three times by relatives of the same
gender. This is done based on the belief that no one was born with anything and hence when
one dies, they should go without anything. After being cleaned, the body is wrapped in a white
cloth. It is then taken to an outdoor location which bears a rlosque. Prayers are then offered for
;'ll3 i
,]
the deceased to be forgiven and that they may find peace and happiness irr the after-life world
to come. Burial is usually carried ont in twenty tbur hours after death. The body is buried with
three mounds of soil on the head, the chin and the shoulder with the head lacing towards their
holy city of Mecca. Muslims are not buried in coffins but directly into the ground.
Circumcision
In Islam, circumcision is known as Tohara,meaning purification or cleanliness. Circurncision
is a highly recommended rite of passage in Islam religion. The religion has no flxed age
fbr circurncision. The age at which it is perfonned varies depending on farnily, region and
country. The preferred age is often seven although sorne Muslims are circumcised as early
as the seventlt day after birth and as late as pubcrty. Thc wisdonr of pcrfonrring circurncision
is highlightecl in the Quran which states that circumcision is a symbol of Islam that shows
obedience to thc law of the Lord. According to Muslinrs, tho prophet Abrahanr was the first
persorl to perform circumcision.
Marriage in lslam
Marriage in Islam should be between male and lemale who are not closely related to each
other. Muslim parents lnay an'ange a suitable marriage parlner fbr their child. Marriage
celebrations lor Muslims are traditionally perlormed at the bride's home. The ceremony is
led by a respected membcr of the Muslim community. The bride and groom accept present
fiom each other. The groom has to declare a Mahr (a dowry), showing his respect for the
bride which can include anything she has asked for such as nloney, clothes or even a house.
Some Muslim couples take vows. They sign a marriage contract about what they expect from
the rnarriage and what the rights of cach partncr will be. Those witnessing the man'iage may
be asked to pray for the couple. Howeveq polygamy is allowed in Islam and a husbancl may
have up to four wives provided all thc wives arc treated equally.

Gender rolcs
Gender roles are the duties that are expected of lnalcs and females. These differ from
society

used to
prevail in societies and comtnunities but are not encoruaged as they create gender
inequality;
' Only men can be leaders, breadwinners, venture into politics and do heavy manual
labour such as hunting, building and mining. Both males and fernales can perform
these rolcs and there should be a balance irr such r.olcs.
' Only wonlcn uan tcnd to childrcrt and pcrtbrrl housu ulrorcs such as sweeping,
cooking, f-etching water, laundering and sewing. Both males and fbmales can perfbrm
these tasks and it is encouraged to share such roles so as to create and maintain
gender equality.
' Gender inequality creates imbalances across socictics by making one gender seem superior
to the other. Gender inequality is the process of limiting roles only to eitlrer males or females.
