n a shocking turn of events, the president, known for pushing his cartel interests, especially in the fuel industry, has now threatened citizens’ rights and well-being. In January 2020, fuel prices went up sharply, benefiting the president’s connection with the Zuva fuel retailer. Now, the same leader is threatening to exclude citizens from public places and essential services. This, despite his record of poor service delivery. This article highlights a troubling trend: ZANU PF, the ruling party, seems more interested in profit than in the rights of its people.
A serious issue lies at the center of this story: the president owns a big part of a company trying to move the Chilonga people from their ancestral lands. This unethical move, along with a lack of concern for public services, raises a question: what drives ZANU PF? It seems clear that the party and its leader are ignoring their duties, even disregarding organizations like the World Food Programme.
The issue of forced vaccinations further shows ZANU PF’s apparent lack of respect for democratic values. The government’s push for mass vaccinations is worrying. It could mean citizens might lose access to important services like healthcare and education, which are basic constitutional rights. The government, led by a person with a history of human rights violations, claims to care about citizens’ well-being. This is hard to believe, given the harsh responses to past protests.
The main question is: how does forced vaccination benefit Mnangagwa? The answer might be about making money. Getting everyone vaccinated might pause elections, keeping ZANU PF in power longer. This plan ignores citizens’ rights. The government’s urgent and harsh tactics support this idea.
This pattern shows ZANU PF’s lack of interest in public welfare. The party’s push for a vaccine, even after it reportedly caused a death, shows a focus on profit. Despite reports of bad reactions, ZANU PF doesn’t change course, showing its priority is making money. Other countries stop vaccinations at the first sign of trouble, putting citizens’ safety first.
Profit isn’t the only reason for this dangerous stance. ZANU PF gets benefits from supporting unsafe vaccines and avoids United Nations sanctions with China’s help. This protection lets the party continue violating human rights without facing consequences.
In summary, ZANU PF’s focus on making money is making its bad record on human rights even worse. Basic rights like healthcare and education are being undermined, with the people who provide these services neglected or depleted. ZANU PF’s support of unsafe vaccines helps only the party, protected by international politics, while Zimbabwean citizens suffer. As the party profits, citizens bear the cost, highlighting a serious issue that must be addressed.
