Are you travelling home this Christmas? What are you going to tell friends & family about your thoughts on the crisis in the country? It will be a dialogue of course. You may have to discard your beliefs or dispel some of their myths. Whatever the case, discuss #thinkingvote
Please ask whether they are ready to suspend their allegiances long enough to have an open & honest conversation about why we are where we are, who is responsible & what they think we should do to change direction. You might want to discuss voting as a duty for nation building
You might want to define what nation building, prosperity might look like and who best can bring that about. You may have to tell a lot of hard truths. We have no choice but to #RehabilitateZimbabwe & that will not be possible if we don't #FixTheFoundation Simple! It might work!

#ALifeOfSacrifice Since Independence, Zimbabwean parents have worked hard to invest in the education of their children. Some opened accounts with the likes of Beverly Building Society for years only to see value wiped away in a matter of days by Zanu's collapse of the economy
#ALifeOfSacrifice Those who managed to make it & graduate, could not find any jobs because ZanuPF's ruinous policies destroyed the economy. Families were forced to sacrifice quality family time & send their children off overseas. But first they had to sacrifice to find airfares
#ALifeOfSacrifice Those who made it to the diaspora are still sacrificing to bring family over or send money home to help those left behind at the mercy of a predatory elite that is looting the country dry at Olympic proportions. Cynically, diaspora is not allowed to vote

ZanuPF & the government's obsession with NGOs & their insistence on demanding work plans is yet an example of the systematic siege mentality within their ranks. Anyone who demands accountability is an enemy of the state, serves communities is treated with suspicion. Fear abounds.
Government that rules with an iron fist because it is afraid of it's own shadows. It is a sick situation with regime defenders openly & shamelessly back repression because they make a living off the backs of the people's misery #FixTheFoundation
The same regime that lives off foreign aid is petty & capricious enough to hijack aid handover ceremonies for help sourced by NGOs and individual Zimbabweans. Not content to deprive Zimbabweans of a living, they go on to create "support" schemes to further enrich themselves

#FixTheFoundation The world is fascinated by what is happening in the US because it is a superpower & because it regularly positions itself asi "leader of the free world". It is a test moment for American democracy. The democrats are moving to impeach Donald Trump for sedition
This is not about politics as some very conservative Republicans, like Liz Cheney, have indicated they will vote to impeach. The point being made is you cannot upend the constitutional order & hope to get away with it. There are dangers for the country & principles must stand
In Zimbabwe, when the ruling party was embroiled in a vicious factional fight, 9 out of 10 provinces voted against their then VP. After the coup, the same 9 provinces switched allegiances. Zero principle, adherence to the constitution. Worse, opposition leaders defended the coup

If you have ever wondered what our take is on Land Reform in #Zimbabwe, here's a thread. #AWW⏳ Image
APA Zimbabwe totally supports Land Reform! Our people went to war for independence and for the return of OUR land. #AWW⏳ #Zimbabwe
After losing the referendum in 2000, @ZANUPF_Official, however, embarked on a vengeance driven violent and chaotic land reform programme

Thousands of farm workers were internally displaced and production was severely disrupted with food security compromised. #AWW #Zimbabwe

"#PressStatement📢 on the State's unjust treatment of Hopewell Chin’ono & Jacob Ngarivhume"

1. The Alliance for People’s Agenda is deeply concerned by the manner in which Hopewell Chin’ono and Jacob Ngarivhume are being unjustly treated by the government. We note particularly how justice is being denied and delayed in their court cases.
@SADC_News
#Zimbabwe
2. The two are entitled to the same constitutional rights afforded to the accused person in terms of Section 70 of the Constitution of Zimbabwe. We refer to the decision by the Magistrate Court disqualifying Hopewell Chin’ono’s lawyer. #Zimbabwe
