The comrade refused to comment on the young people around him who have no jobs, reliable internet, or shoes, and some of whom are struggling to finish school due to the high cost of living. He referred the journalist to see solar panels and boreholes that are being drilled all over. But is this not due to the failure of ZINWA and ZESA to provide water and electricity respectively, which the same government under Zanu-PF has presided over for the past 43 years.
At many Zanu-PF rallies, we have seen people happily eating chicken showing chicken is something they can hardly afford independently.
Numerous media outlets have covered ZanuPF rallies, where more than 500 buses are used to transport people from different parts of the country to attend a rally in a different province from where they reside.
It wouldn’t be complete without mentioning the closure of markets, schools, and shops on the day when ZanuPF is holding a rally in the same area.
The issue of bussing people, closing shops and markets, and providing them with lucrative meals shows that ZanuPF lacks organic support and instead uses intimidation, force, and vote buying to deceive the citizens of Zimbabwe.
It is critical to note that ZanuPF has been in power for the past 43 years without bringing any positive development to Zimbabwe. These 43 years are remembered for gross human rights violations and massive looting of natural resources, including gold, diamonds, lithium, granite, and more.
In April, Qatar-based news giant Al-Jazeera revealed that Eubert Angel is among many “looters” who are siphoning more than $100 million worth of gold per month through their connection to Emerson Mnangagwa.
In the video, we hear Mutsvangwa boasting about international entities buying gold from Zimbabwe, yet the country has the most inflated currency, an underdeveloped and struggling healthcare system, and workers who are always at the government’s doorstep, complaining about poor and inadequate salaries.
