New dispensation: A scam
18 hrs ago | Views
Zimbabwe was once a country for all, until it was hijacked by a small group of people who used title documents to dominate the majority's politics, economy, and social well-being.
Zimbabwe is today ruled by corrupt, greedy, and unthankful Zanu PF leaders, gold runners, and land barons.
The majority of Zimbabweans do not consider themselves to be part of the country since they are depressed, repressed, and impoverished by the state.
However, there is a segment that sees development in every corner of the country and will continue to defend the regime even if things go wrong. We are a broken society. To change the situation, a total paradigm shift will be required.
A society in which dishonest firms prosper and are regarded higher than hard effort. We are doomed. A society in which mbingas are more respected than honest businesspeople.
Most young people want to be the Wicknels of this country. Some are inspired by charlatans and scammers, such as Passion Java. It's a mess, and new leaders may be unable to mend it. The country is now decades behind most African countries in many areas, and catching up will require years of commitment and hard effort.
The new republic continues to deceive its citizens. The daily government's mouthpiece, The Herald, assured us in May 2024 that ZiG was ready to purchase petrol and diesel, but seven months later, ZiG has been unable to discharge its duties.
The regime continues to bombard us with such lies year after year. Varakashi, the regime's ardent supporters, are very uneducated and foolish trolls masquerading as patriots who constantly defend this so-called new administration.
They twerk for $10 a week to protect the new dispensation. It is now clear that they are pretending to be patriotic while doing the contrary. They are grossly exposing themselves by obsessing on the US dollar. They have lost trust in their own currency, ZiG.
Raw sewage is running through our communities in Greater Harare, a once-thriving Sunshine City. Dirty water from our taps has become the norm.
The primary source, Lake Chivero, the area's main supply of water, has been poisoned.
The roads are in poor condition; potholes are everywhere, and no one is paying attention. Our hospitals are drug-free; patients are dying due to a lack of medications.
Prison inmates are hungry. Our civil servants are struggling to put a nice supper on the table, with the majority of them earning around $250 per month.
Accessing electricity is really inconvenient. Tenants can endure longer than ten hours without power. This administration promotes the Karanga hegemony political project, which consolidates authority in Zimbabwe.
