“President Emmerson Mnangagwa's first year in office has been very successful to the extent that his main thrust has been to deal with fundamental issues like, firstly, the fundamentals that improve our democracy, as well as economic fundamentals that will ensure there is an economic turnaround with regard to national aspirations as per vision 2030, whose aim is to turn Zimbabwe into an upper middle income country,” said Nick Mangwana.
Everyone who is anyone has dismissed the recent elections as “bias, unfair, uneven playing field” and one of two have even called them for what they are “rigged elections”. Even the Zanu PF’s own Zimbabwe Human Rights Commission has confirmed that the regime rural voters were abused by the party leaders, traditional leaders and other operative who distributed state supplied food aid and agricultural inputs in a partisan manner reducing the rural people to nothing but serfs beholden to the landlord, Zanu PF. The regime blatantly rigs the elections and its apologist claims that the Mnangagwa has improved the democratic fundamentals!
As for the regime improving the economic fundamentals that is just a foolish notion. On Wednesday Minister of Finance, Professor Ncube, was talking of finally removing the green bombers, Zanu PF Youths who have been some of ghost civil servants. Mnangagwa promised to do this last year, why has it taken a whole year? He is laying off one lot of blood suckers only to take another lot on the civil service payroll in the form of laid off cabinet members, permanent secretaries, etc. who have been “redeployed” on full pay and benefits.
The real tough corruption cases such as the wholesale looting of diamonds in Marange and Chiadzwa is going on untouched. Mugabe said the country lost $15 billion in diamond revenue. Not one individual has ever been arrested and not one dollar recovered because many of those involved in this grant state sponsored robbery are senior member of Mnangagwa’s government!
“Investment is happening, but it is not happening overnight. Right now, 800 000 people have got jobs in a short period and it shows that this is not a joke,” said Nick.
He did not say who are the employers of these 800 000 workers because both the employers and employees are all a figment of his imagination.
You can get away with serving mutton and claim it is lamb but not so with the hot chilli. Zimbabweans know the country's economic meltdown is getting worse and not better!
Since the 30th July 2018 disputed elections, the Zimbabwe economy has been in turmoil with serious shortage of foreign currency, food, fuel, medicine, etc. The regime has had to borrow money to fill the foreign currency shortage but this is only a temporary solution. The long term solution is for serious cash injection from investors and lenders. Sadly there is no hope of any meaningful direct investment in Zimbabwe, not whilst the country remain a pariah state.
As long as Zimbabwe remains a pariah state ruled by corrupt, incompetent and vote rigging thugs the country will never know political stability or register any meaningful economic recovery. Every one knows that Zimbabwe is a pariah state and all that happened in last November’s coup was an internal quarrel wit😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅hin the party resulting in some individuals being booted out of the party without changing the nature of the party.
Zanu PF remains a party of corrupt and ruthless thugs who number one priority is to retain absolute power at all cost! Zimbabwe under Zanu PF will remain a pariah state, period.
