I was at Matopos not so long ago. An impressive 3 dimensional mural has been erected at the granite dome where Cecil John Rhodes’ grave is. It is the most impressive structure in the vicinity and is standing quite tall. In the western horizons whose imposing late afternoon mists create a symbiotic infusion with the rock outcrops is a very conspicuous cross announcing its presence to the villages beyond. This mural is inscribed, “to brave men,” and with 3D images of men on horseback holding rifles of war.

Zimbabwe of late has become an eyeball of the US foreign policy and therefore has been under siege as the US has upped the wager to remove Zanu PF from power using a combination of deceit and unfathomable regime change tactics.

….as service delivery suffers

MDC-led urban councils are now concentrating more on power struggles and diverting their focus from their core mandate of providing proper service delivery to rate payers. They are obssessed with strategically positioning themselves for benefits which come with their positions in urban local authorities.

After losing the 2018 Presidential race, MDC leader, Nelson Chamisa vowed to embark on nationwide demonstrations until he was declared the winner of that plebiscite.

More so, these attacks are not for the first time and the South African government seems to have no solution in sight.
