A political commentator Vince Musewe has said the ruling Zanu PF has caused the most suffering of the citizens but it was not necessary for people to keep on blaming it without taking action to remove it when the power is in their hands to do so.
Musewe said to change 'our' circumstances requires that people first change their attitudes.
"In Zimbabwe we have become experts of the blame game. We blame Zanu PF who in turn blame sanctions and imperialists. Of course Zanu PF must go, they are the root cause of most of our problems but we have also been architects in creating that circumstance," he said.
"Any critique at MDCT failure to manage councils effectively for example, results in excuses and blame game. We do not elect leaders to complain but to find solutions! What this does is to strengthen and give fuel to the very paradigm of shifting the blame which Zanu PF have become experts at."
He said yet the reasons for non delivery are multiple and include the fact that people's selection of MPS and councillors is based on popularity stakes and not skills.
"So you get individuals being expected to do jobs outside their skills set. This has contributed to the problem of non delivery we are facing," he said.
