The ZANU PF led Government’s outstanding performance and socio-economic milestones on several projects since the 2018 elections places the revolutionary Party in a clear position to win the 2023 elections resoundingly.
On the other hand, MDC as an opposition party has nothing tangible to show its commitment towards facing a hardworking and lethal force in the form of ZANUPF. Instead there is serious inhouse fighting within the MDC as they have been accusing each other of all sorts of trivial and selfish things resulting in most leaving the party. The rumours doing rounds that Welshman Ncube was leaving the Alliance to join Polad could have been true but the party’s leadership could have pleaded with him to stay coz there is no smoke without fire. Of late we have witnessed several people leaving the MDC A to join ZANU PF and that is pure testament that something is not right in the so called democratic party.
The ZANU PF led Government is working on achieving Vision 2030 to make the country a middle income status economy and so far a lot has been achieved as the country journies towards that goal. So far the economy has been stabilised with prices in shops no longer skyrocketing every once in a while and the stagnant foreign currency rates, all this necessitated by the TSP and NDS1. The dam constructions to boost the agriculture sector through irrigation and the timeous distribution of agriculture inputs, the road infrastructure development, the revived and growing mining sector, the renewable solar energy and building of new furnaces at the Hwange Power Company are some of the projects being worked on are some of the achievements made so far just to mention but a few.
Day in day out the MDC A is on about ZANU PF on social media. They spend most of their time accusing ZANU PF all sorts of non existent things yet they are doing nothing to show that they have something to offer the people on the ground. All they do is talk, come election time they will cry foul because they would have wasted a lot of time doing nothing.
Right now they are busy celebrating President Hichilema’s victory as if it is their victory instead of working with Government to develop the nation. People in the rural areas are being and have been empowered. A lot is being done in the rural areas but the opposition is too blind to see that because their lives revolve around social media and have nothing to offer the electorate. It is not surprising to see that the so called MDC A supporters on social media are mostly in the diaspora with very few of them being in Zimbabwe that is why they want so much for the diaspora vote.
Its these same diaspora that donate to the MDC A with their donations being diverted by the likes of Charles Hwende for personal use
Rehabilitation of roads is something the MDC A led city council failed to do. In fact most if not all MDC A led councils failed to deliver drastically. Instead of fixing roads, they let the roads to degrade and became pothole infested. That is why Government decided to declare the roads in Zimbabwe as a National disaster.
The only plan the MDC A has right now is to encourage people to register to vote, but that is something that even ZANU PF has always encouraged people to do, to register to vote. I don’t know if the MDC A thinks these registered voters will then vote for them after registering to vote. People vote for a Party that brings about results and development, both of which the MDC A does not have. The MDC A has no plan coz all they do is wait the their masters to tell them what to do.
The ruling ZANU PF party and Government will always lead the people and empower them to better their lives through various ways.
