ZIMBABWE IS ON FIRE

ZIMBABWE IS ON FIRE

We find ourselves engulfed by demonstrations which are coming from all sections of the society. Some are organised by individuals, others by groups which range from vendors to professional groups who are dissatisfied by what is going on. Most of the service providers including banks are not meeting the peoples' expectations and this surely is making the generality of the society jittery. The response of the government is to silence people who are showing their concern by allowing police to beat them up when they use their constitutional rights to assemble and conduct peaceful demonstrations. The future is not very clear because we are not sure what will happen next because it seems people are no longer afraid to express themselves. We expect the government to restrain the police and to open dialogue between government and the people so that we avoid a situation where things will go out of hand.
