Zanu PF allows an array of unconstitutional things- analyst

The political commentator Zexie Mashonga has accused the ruling Zanu PF government for allowing a lot of unconstitutional things to be done in the country such as Chiefs being partisan.

"There are so many things that Zanu PF government is allowing that are unconstitutional," he said. "In our constitution for example traditional leaders are not allowed to be partisan but you find that Chiefs Council president ,Chief Fortune Charumbira and his chiefs and Headmen are Zanu PF activists and a thugs more than any ordinary citizen. He doesn't make it a secret."

He said the whole traditional leaders institution is used by Zanu PF un apologetically.

"No-one cares, but this unconstitutional.Another good example is of our security sector. If there is anywhere full of thugs of Zanu PF that's in the chiefs. All Zanu PF murderers are found in the security sector, they kill and find safe haven in Army, Police and or CIO," he said. "This sector is so corrupt that they are not even ashamed of being Zanu-PF. They attend Zanu PF rallies in uniforms, they are party of the slogan chanting crowd."

He said but what does the constitution say about this..?

"Security sector must be non partisan. Serious reforms are needed here in order for Zimbabwe to be a country again," he said. "I think these are some of the more cases that our NGOs, Opposition political parties and civic organisations must take to court for clarity."
