Dear Zimbabwe 🇿🇼
1. Informed and objective consensus is that we are headed in the right direction. The pain of “austerity for posterity” is real. Price volatility, erosion of disposable incomes , rotten infrastructure and power cuts are all hurting. Social destitution is acute

2. Change is never painless particularly undoing decades of misguided policies. And we have just started so patience and courage are called for. Any political leader promising painless change is being dishonest especially given our desperate circumstances.
3. A few things threaten our progress to normalcy namely our attitudes, corruption, US sanctions and vested selfish interests. Winning requires a national effort. Sanctions benefit those who want us to fail namely hardliners in ZANU-PF and some in the opposition MDC.
4. Patriotism requires all our leaders to prioritize the people’s agenda ahead of parochial ambitions. Threats of protests are counterproductive. The national call to action should be unity, sacrifice, hard work and productivity. Next election is in 2023.
