Of Presidential Jokes, Colonial yoke and the Corona Virus

CORONA VIRUS
The infamous COVID19 virus final arrived in March. I mean official. The virus unofficial arrived in December 2019 according to the opposition party and the so-called independent media. It was time for the opposition to blame the government on inaccurate statistics, a collapsed health system and inadequate preparations.
When the virus final arrived on March 16 the opposition and the independent media celebrated. That is the type of Opposition parties that we have in Zimbabwe. Opposition leaders who celebrate the demise of their nation.

THE COLD MORTUARY JOKE
The mortuaries of this world are supposed to be cold, the newer the mortuary the colder!! That was the centre of the Presidential Joke of the month. It is only the so-called independent media that had a field day twisting the joke and the opposition MDC alliance hanging on to the twist.

THE CHIMANIMANI BY-ELECTIONS
The ZIDERA sanctions were routinely renewed in February as has been the norm since 2002. The purpose of the sanctions was to alienate the people of Zimbabwe from ZANU-PF and the land reform program. The Chimanimani by-election done in March is direct defiance and a slap in the face for the opposition MDC alliance.  It was 1587 ZANU-PF members voting against a paltry 227 MDC alliance voters. The sanctions will not work!!

THE LAND ISSUE AND THE COLONIAL YOKE
The opposition in their quest to be the champion of land reform is selling the idea that the Rhodesian settlers are now being allowed to repossess their farms with the assistance of the Government of Zimbabwe.

The Ministry of Land has come up with Statutory Instrument 62 of 2020 which clearly debunk that notion. The statutory instrument is clear....the land reform program is not reversible. We will never wear the colonial yoke on our black necks.

Zimbabwe will never be a colony again!!
