via The Zimbabwean – Accreditation nightmare at UNWTO
There is an accreditation nightmare at the 20th United Nations World Tourism Organisation General Assembly summit here after the Zambian computing system crashed.
by Zivai Maenzanise
The development resulted in the influx of Zambian nationals and visitors crossing the border to the Zimbabwean side to be accredited, leading to congestion at Elephant Hill, the accreditation centre.
Zimbabwean delegates had to give way to their Zambian counterparts who got accredited first.
Zimbabwean security forces, government heads, ministerial aides, journalists and artists were the most affected.
The slow pace at which accreditation is taking place has affected the deployment and duties of many delegates.

Another typical ZANU-PF event. Those idiots can’t do anything without creating chaos. Except now the world’s media is witnessing it firsthand. Not good for the brand.
The computer system that crashed is in Zambia. Where is inZanu Pf coming in here?
The next thing Will hear is Zanu Pf is Zanucausing war in Syria. Give us a break.
Ngonye, ask yourself why the computer system is in Zambia and not Zim. They cudnt take a chance with people who can’t even produce an electronic voter’s roll.
Indeed it’s a zanu p.f. fiasco coz a zanu p.f. dude called Walter Mzembi is in charge and he cudnt trust his own country to come up with something as simple as a system that can register a conference’s delegates.
So, much as you may not like it, it’s a reflection on zanu p.f. and by the way, u can’t expect people who are being inconvenienced on Zimbabwean soil to say “ah, it was Zambia’s fault. “
THATS MY GOOD OLE AFRICA! NOT UNEXPECTED!
THIS IS NOT A OARTY EVENT BUT AN INTERNATIONAL FORUM. UDOFO RUDZII HWEKUTI ZVAAITIKA KU ZAMBIA ZVONZI I ZANU. COMPUTOR CRUSHH HAINEI NE PARTY. ENDAI KUCHIKORO,kuimba rwiyo rwamapenzi
Ollah, why is the computer system being hosted by Zambia in the first place? You think the international guests will fault Zambia for a fiasco happening on Zim soil?
You may not be aware of it but there’s something called accountability. But then again, I forget you are a product of Robert Mugabe’s Zim where everything is blamed on outsiders.
So, here is how things work in the normal world. The Zimbabwean minister called Walter Mzembi, of zanu p.f. made a decision to have the computer system hosted in Zambia. He must have had a good reason to believe that Zimbabwe was incapable of carrying out that simple task given we couldn’t even produce an electronic voter’s roll. So, Ollah dear, that makes Mzembi of Zimbabwe accountable.
Hoaaaa are you guyS literate. It said the computer system in Zambia crushed and as such people are coming to Zimbabwe to be accrediated. That means what!!! The system in Zambia is down but the system in Zimbabwe is still operational. Simple…
Thanks SADC for the correction. I must confess to having misread the article.
Its not uncommon for computers to crash….Zimbabwe however quickly moved in to help. Thus co-hosting the event…..zimbia could not do it alone, so does zimbzbwe……the article is not newsworthy
After the wonderful Nikuv Victory, Robber, Dis-grace,Sarah and John all agred that a vacation was overdue.
Where to go they asked, well Dis-grace, Sarah and John opted for the Bahamas, while Robber wanted a visit to Dubai.
Well, they said, let’s put it to a Vote!
Results:
Bahamas – 3
Dubai – 68
The outcome of this latest fiasco will make very interesting reading.
