Kudzayi replaces Brezhnev Malaba, who has left The Sunday Mail to pursue other interests. He (Kudzayi) joins from sosimpledesigns.com, a software and new media company in the United Kingdom, where he was proprietor and served as the head of product design.

Mr Mutasa thanked Malaba for his 16-year service to Zimpapers, part of which he spent as editor of Sunday News, then Chronicle and later The Sunday Mail, the country’s leading weekly paper.

He wished Kudzayi success in leading the country’s widely-read Sunday newspaper.
“We are confident that with his multi-media skills he (Kudzayi) will be able to take The Sunday Mail to a higher level,” Mr Mutasa said.
