Police Commissioner-General Augustine Chihuri has urged police officers countrywide not to "box" and always quarrel with their wives, but to encourage them to be part of the development process within the force by starting income generating projects, the Herald reports.  

He said this during the ZRP 2016 Kuyedza Women's Club annual show in Harare last Friday.The main focus of the club is on income generation and self empowerment projects.

Chihuri, who is also the president of Kuyedza Women's Club, said it was his wish that every wife of every police officer should join the club.

"It is really my wish that any police officer who marries should encourage their wives for development. Why should you box your wife and leave others to develop so that you become envious of what they are doing? It is my wish that I would love to see every wife married to a police officer become a member of Kuyedza Women's Club," he said.

Chihuri applauded the senior officers commanding provinces urging them to continue nurturing their juniors.

"We thank the officers commanding provinces. May you continue to grow and nurture your officers. The idea is not only to develop the individual, but we also want to develop the families and bring synergies, oneness and unity of purpose to our family members.

"A confused house, a house full of quarrels can never produce a proper police officer who can work," he said.
