It boggles the mind how political have been emerging overnight like mushroom. With an average of eighteen moths ahead of elections this is very much disturbing. The question is, what is the purpose of these multiple political parties?

At the end of the day there is going to be an imbalanced outcome where voter's decisions are going to be distorted all over different parties. Currently political parties stand at over twenty one in number and there are still promises of more parties emerging.
The other possible reason could be chancers merely trying their luck. This is in sync with a reported declaration by the leader and founder of the United Family International Church, Emmanuel Makandiwa, in July 2016 that Mr Mugabe's successor is a citizen recently based in the Diaspora.
To this we have seen self proclaimed great and able leaders campaigning from beyond borders and the oceans. Thanks to social their managing to reach the suffering individuals back home without any hassles. However, the question still remains; are these multiple parties passionate for change or just tools to alleviate power hunger?
