A political analyst Pedzisai Ruhanya has mocked at the President Robert Mugabe for reportedly distributing bananas at a rally in Gutu Masvingi saying such actions are not expected from a head of state.

Mugabe reportedly recently gave hungry villagers in Masvingo 30 tonnes of bananas and cassava yams to hundreds of food insecure villagers at a Zanu PF Campaign rally.

"President Mugabe's distribution of bananas at a Zanu PF rally in Gutu confirms Zimbabwe is a Banana Republic," Ruhanya said. "How can a whole Head of State and Commander-in-chief of the Zimbabwe's Defence Forces move around distributing bananas and used clothes (mazitye) at rallies?"
