1/ The morning after #25October #AntiSanctionsDay ;

• Zimbabweans' don't understand the impact of sanctions
• Corruption and sanctions are two different issues
• Corruption is a cancer that we are all fighting, we can't use it to sanitize illegal and imperialistic sanctions

2/ We will only find solutions for the problems bedeviling our country when we learn to separate the problems and deal with them separately without political propaganda agitation.

• Sanctions separately, sanctions are evil

• Corruption separately, corruption is bad
#25October

3/ We must never allow our hatred for ZANUPF to cloud our objectivity
All opposition forces should try to have a full understanding of these sanctions. There are 2 distinct forms of sanctions imposed on Zimbabwe
1. Targeted Sanctions
2. Sanctions imposed on our STATE INSTITUTIONS

4/After the Zimbabwean Army successfully helped the PanAfricanist Laurent Kabila to crush the Western backed rebels in DRC led by Wamba dia Wamba, George W Bush declared Zimbabwe a threat to US Foreign Policy which led to the imposition of ZIDERA in 2001 on our STATE INSTITUTIONS

5/ Government credit lines were frozen & any international bank that traded with Zim was going to be punished. Our ZDF owned Zimbabwe Defence Industries were also sanctioned in 2003 because of the DRC Second War of 1998. #25October #AntiSanctions

6/ The Land Reform Program also angered Bush leading to the imposition of ZIDERA on our STATE INSTITUTIONS. Then leaders of the MDC applauded & encouraged more sanctions on Zimbabwe to make the economy scream.
If you support Sanctions, you need to be exiled from this country ASAP
