I am disappointed with how the Zimbabwean government is fighting against its vendors.
Some of the vendors are refusing to go, insisting that all the designated places they are told to go to are full. They know if they leave, they will not have another source of income.
Sadly some of them are educated or qualified individuals with no hope because of the goverment’s incompetence. People are starving and in need of basic necessities. The government has failed to stabilise its self-inflicted economic plunge.
It proceeds with unnecessary plans, instead of reopening industries or supplying farmers in order to create jobs and eradicate the problems.
Chasing vendors away will not solve much. Instead, there will be more starving people to add to those who are poverty stricken.
The government has done a good job of creating this mess, so its high time all the officials resign. Their policies need to be revised by a new government that will be responsive for a prosperous Zimbabwe.
