Mnangagwa made people to stop dreaming

SINCE November 17 2017, we were all hop-ing to see a big improvement. We were all dreaming big. Dream-ing of buying nice clothes so that we look presentable, buying medium-class cars, running big businesses and working on big companies for better salaries. Unfortunately, our dreams have been turned into nightmares by the President Emmerson Mnangagwa-led government.
We are no longer sleeping, thinking of what tomorrow holds for us.
The few clothes we have are now torn. The shoes we had got torn while we were marching, demonstrat-ing for former President Robert Mugabe to step down. Yes, Mugabe is gone, but what is the achievement so far? We have a new President who was in Mugabe administration for 37 years.
I don't know, maybe there can be a change. The questions are why Mnangagwa failed to con-front Mugabe and tell him this type of administration was poor and uncalled for?
Why Mnangagwa failed to disassociate himself from the government which dispersed families during Operation Murambatsvina in 2005, brutalised, kidnapped, raped and killed people in 2008 run-off election? Why? OK, let bygones be bygones, so that means there is no accountability anymore.
