Former MDC99 leader Job Sikhala claims that Zimbabweans are tired enough of President Robert Mugabe's 'heartless lot and rebellion against this regime is imminent.'
In a statement , Sikhala said: "It is correct that there is shock among Zimbabweans, after the revelation of the astounding salaries of CEOs of Zanu-PF and government aligned companies. But people must know that many Zimbabweans are aware that despite the sea of poverty amongst Zimbabweans a tiny minority in Zanu-PF is eating on behalf of the 13 million Zimbabweans.
"It starts right from Robert Mugabe himself and his greedy wife who has entered into astonishing wealth accumulation crusade with Chinese and Arab partners. It cascades down to his cabinet ministers who have become an irritant to the population, cutting across to the military chiefs from the rank of Brigadier General upwards and the same rot is deeper in the police service from the rank of Supritendent right to the Commissioner General.
"The late Air Commodore Karakadzai was giving himself a salary of more than $50 000 per month when workers at the National Railways of Zimbabwe where not paid a cent for years. It is not only Cuthbert Dube and Happison Muchechetere who are representing the insulting salaries and benefits at our midst.
"They have put their tentacles in all facets of the economy. They own diamond minefields, all gold concessions, platinum fields and all the farming land in Zimbabwe. This is the economic stratagem we have as a country that will soon lead to rebellion and insurrection against this regime. It's just a matter of time. Zimbabweans are tired enough of this heartless lot that rebellion against this regime is imminent."
