Binga legislator for MDC-T Prince Dubeko Sibanda has said President Robert Mugabe was a great failure for the nation such that if Zimbabwe was  a private company he would have since been fired.

Speaking in parliament Sibanda said with all due respect to the Office of the President, when  legislators call him the Head of State, Head of Government, Commander-in-Chief, First Secretary, Chancellor of all universities and all those titles, those titles do not just go without any expected return.

"When we give you all those titles, what we expect are results and right now as we speak, corruption is going uncontrolled, the economy is decaying, hospitals have closed, schools have got no teachers and nothing is happening. We want to pay civil servants bonuses with land because the Government, the Head of State, the Chief Executive Officer has failed," he said.

"If it was a private company, President Mugabe would have long been fired. He is not supposed to continue to be where he is. He has failed this nation and therefore, the best that he can do like in other countries that have got leadership that have a conscience, that loves the people and not themselves, not selfish leadership, when they fail they say can I give someone an opportunity to do better because I have failed. How long does he want to continue failing? I think it is time that he steps down and give new leadership to take over this country."
