When let me try to explain what I am trying to say.
I agree that Zimbabwe has been held back those last 40 years because those in positions of power and authority have refused to accept change. What Mnangagwa is saying is he has embraced change, the post November 2017 coup Zimbabwe is a new dispensation, a Second Republic.
What I am saying is the Second republic is no different from the Mugabe before it in that those in power still consider themselves as they ones who know best and we all must listen to them. Mnangagwa is a dictator just as Mugabe was a dictator.
The real change the country needs is the acceptance of the reality that none of us has the monopoly of knowledge and hence the need to open up so everyone has a meaningful say. Elections must be free, fair and credible and the electorate should be able to remove someone from office if they so wished.
Mnangagwa rigged the July 2018 elections and for him to claim he rigged the elections so he can repeal POSA is a sick joke; it is like a thief saying he stole your car to save you having to buy fuel!
Mnangagwa said Zimbabwe continued to suffer from unwarranted interference and endure illegal sanctions imposed as punishment for reclaiming land.
ReplyDelete“However, we are buoyed by the fact that we have re-united with our land, which is now irreversibly reposed into our hands, we its true owners,” he said.
“As we commemorate and celebrate the unity of our continent, we in Zimbabwe deeply thank our SADC region and the whole continent of Africa for standing with us. Africa has rejected and denounced the sanctions against Zimbabwe and the Sudan, urging those responsible for these illegal, heinous measures to immediately lift them without conditionalities.”
Mnangagwa can repeat this nonsense about the land being given back to the blacks the truth is the ruling elite not only got the lion’s share of the seized farms but worse still they have failed to put it to productive use. Zimbabwe used to produce enough food to feed her own people with plenty left over to be the breadbasket of the regions. Ever since the seizure of the farms, the country has relied of imported food aid – we are now so poor we cannot even pay for the food.
It is a crying shame that SADC and AU leaders have allowed themselves to be harangued by this Zanu PF regime into accepting the nonsense that sanctions were the root cause of Zimbabwe’s economic meltdown ignoring all the evidence showing that it is the gross mismanagement and the rampant corruption.
Worst of all, the continental and the region bodies have turned a blind eye to Zanu PF’s blatant rigging of elections. Zimbabwe is in this economic and political mess because the country has been stuck for 40 years and counting with a corrupt, incompetent and utterly useless regime.
The only way Zimbabwe is ever going to get out of this mess is for the country to have a competent government and for that to happen we must implement democratic reforms necessary for free, fair and credible elections. Sanctions are one way of put this illegitimate Zanu PF regime under pressure to step down so we can implement the reforms. The SADC and AU leaders can witter all they want, the sanction must remain in place.
