UPDATE: One Day to 45 years of the collapse of Zimbabwe
In the last two days there has been a great deal of talk about Zimbabwe, but none so telling as one of the "talents" of the GNU - Tendai Biti - who in an 11 part twitter post exposed many of the internal failing of the hopelessly inept AND corrupt Zanu PF administration! None more symbolic of the failings and incompetence than this photo!! x.com-BitiTendai-1 of 11 here is his most telling quote:
""The regime in Harare is too insincere, too dishonest. It lacks the desire nor the ability to engage in genuine reform. It is driven by the insatiable quest for extraction & the power retention agenda. Nothing else matters""
Whist the regime (the elites within the regime) order the citizens to celebrate 45 years since "Independence", the rest of the World and the hard pressed (and now intimidated by proxy - PVO Bill) diaspora look on with almost palpable disbelief. Because, the Zanu PF regime, for 45 years have taken Zimbabwe (as it is now) to a time BEFORE Rhodesia was colonised! {but offering no excuses for that colonisation}.
45 years ago compared to the situation today - we hear Professor Gift Mugano Ph.D - @gift_mugano, AI reasearch from both GROK3 and DeepSeek
It’s not yet uhuru comrade!
Counting down to celebrate what comrade when your government is worse than the Smith regime when it comes to:
1. Cracking down on its citizens - Smith never cracked down on the white population in the same manner your government is doing to us ref @bbmhlanga @JobSikhala1 @daddyhope @JoanaMamombe et al, @nelsonchamisa @ChibayaCCC @advocatemahere @JamesonTimba et al - the list is endless.
2. Corruption - the VP General Chiwenga correctly classified it as a security threat - Smith regime wasn’t that corrupt but production oriented - the industry which you see today which is now old & antiquated was established by Smith imimi chamakaita dololo
3. Poverty - close to 50% of the population is living under extreme poverty. This wasn’t the case under the Smith Administration
4. Lawlessness & drought of rule of law - you rape the laws & the constitution in an unprecedented fashion with a view to stay in power - hanzi na comrade Mahiya we can tear the constitution! Ndiyo independence yacho ere vakomana?
5. Currency less - in recent years we have changed our currency
6 times now. Smith had one currency which when we gained our independence it was stronger than the USD, that is, ZWD1 = US$1.5. 6. Diaspora - millions of Zimbabweans are in the diaspora both as economic & political refugees thanks to your useless policies, drought of leadership & lawlessness. I know that the majority of our fellow citizens are working & living under extreme conditions all because of your government. We never heard that under Smith Administration white people ran away from its government.
7. Rotten infrastructure - our current infrastructure requires US$30 billion to revamp. Smith cities & towns, constructed roads, hospitals, Kariba dam, electricity infrastructure, dams we are using today and our government has barely done anything and can’t even maintain what was left by Smith!
8. Informality - over 80% of the economy is now informal thanks to your useless policies which saw death of our local currency, joblessness & drought of production. Smith had a formal economy with a strong production base which powered the economy to have a strong currency.
9. Toxic politics - your government has created an environment for toxicities. Your party created @Varakashi4ED to rakasha us right not to unite the people? I saw your top party officials distributing smart phones as tools for rakasharing right? In Mashonaland East province, your own President @edmnangagwa introduced you as a minister who champions propaganda. Even in your party we see that you are calling each other out & suspending & expelling comrades - comrade @ChinamasaPA vakaita sevachapera izwi vachiverenga pages & pages of comrades who were either suspended or fired. Toxicity yacho yatodzikawo midzi muZANU.
10. Stolen elections & violent elections - we fought for one man one vote because Smith was violating our rights to exercise our rights to choose our own leaders. Your administration is not only violating our rights to choose our leaders through large scale rigging but is turning a blind eye when opposition members are being attacked & even killed during election campaigns ref Tapfumaneyi Masaya, Mboneni Ncube, Tinashe Chitsunge, the short or long sleeve of violent elections of 2008, etc The worst thing which has happened to Zimbabwe is to be ruled by @ZANUPF_Official government.
Itai mega independence celebrations yacho!
