This stupid proposed reviewing of the highway code to raise the minimum age requirement to 35 years from the current 25 is simply diabolic.
I wonder if this is part of the Zanu pf election manifesto - The so called 4 million job creation.
Most of the young people out there are Kombi drivers and below the age of 35. Where do u want them to work if you raise that age limit?
Life expectancy in Zim is trending around 33/34, people basically work for their families between the age of 25 and 35 and when you kick them out of their jobs what do u want them to do? Where should they go? This man is out to destroy the families of these poor men who are striving to fend for their families.
South Africa is busy chasing away Zimbabweans and here is someone carrying a big axe within the intention of reducing youths into ultimate beggars.
First it was increase in tollgates now this? This is not fair at all. WHERE IS THE MINISTER OF YOUTH TO PLEAD OUR CASE?
