Batoka Gorge Hydro will never be built as long as Zanu PF remains in power! Zambians do not trust the regime. W Mukori

 The long-awaited Batoka Gorge Hydroelectric Project, heralded as a potential solution to Zimbabwe and Zambia's ongoing power shortages, may face insurmountable challenges that could delay or derail its completion. The multi-billion-dollar project, which has been in the works since 1972, aims to harness the power of the Zambezi River to provide a much-needed boost to the energy grids of both countries. However, according to Zesa Holdings Executive Chairperson Sydney Gata, the project is fraught with significant hurdles, and its future remains uncertain.


Speaking at the ongoing Zimbabwe-Zambia Energy Projects Summit in Victoria Falls, Gata pointed out that while the Batoka Gorge project is touted as a solution to the persistent power outages in the two countries, it has not seen substantial progress over the decades. The project's capacity to generate 2,400 megawatts (MW) of electricity, which could help ease power shortages, is now in jeopardy due to unresolved technical and financial challenges.


"One of the reasons for the delay is that there has not been an exhaustive review of markets and hydrology," Gata said. "The project, as it stands today, will not work. There is also the issue of enforcement risk, stemming from the reconstitution of the Central African Power Corporation (Capco) and the formation of the Zambezi River Authority (ZRA), a process that was not executed smoothly."


The Batoka Gorge Hydroelectric Project, which has been discussed for over four decades, saw renewed interest in the past decade due to the debilitating power cuts affecting citizens and businesses across both Zimbabwe and Zambia. Currently, the countries experience power outages lasting up to 15 hours a day due to a combination of factors, including low water levels at the Kariba Dam, the largest power station in the region.


As of the latest reports, the Kariba power plants, with a total capacity of 1,050 MW, are only generating 124 MW, severely limiting the countries' ability to meet electricity demand. Gata highlighted that decisions on energy projects, such as Batoka, have often been made at a political level without due consultation with experts and technocrats.


"We've been advocating for more extensive studies and a more honest assessment of the project's feasibility," Gata said. "There are models and investment options that could help mitigate risks, but they need further evaluation. Batoka is a victim of load factor risk and load profile risk, which can be addressed with more detailed feasibility studies."


The Batoka Gorge project resurfaced on the agenda in 2014 after being hindered by political instability and financial difficulties. In 2021, the Zambezi River Authority (ZRA), which oversees the Zambezi River and is jointly controlled by Zimbabwe and Zambia, revealed that the consortium awarded the contract for construction was struggling to secure sufficient funding, further delaying the project.


Wicknell Chivhayo, tender-entrepreneur per excellence, will have his winning bid to design, build, commission and even operate Batoka Gorge Hydro by the end of the month if only he did not have to worry about the Zambian officials! Comrade Gata and company awarded Chivhayo the Gwanda Solar Power Generation project. ZESA paid him hundreds of millions of dollars and all the nation ever got is a security guard soapbox to mark the site! 


Mugabe chose to build his US$3-4 billion Blue Roof mansion, now just another white elephant since Grace is hardly ever in Zimbabwe; enough to have paid for the Batoka Gorge project! As long as Zanu PF remains in power it is bloody unlikely we will ever see Batoka Gorge Hydro completed! The regime is failing to maintain the infrastructure we inherit from the white in 1980 much less build new stuff!

Paid an arm and leg for Hwange unit 7 & 8 and yet they not generating - Chinese demanding other arm and leg too! W Mukori

 ZESA’s explanation of reduced generation from Hwange Thermal Power Station especially due to repeated Units 7 and 8 did not make any sense at all. The two units costing US$ 1.4 billion were commission last year, for Pete’s sake. How can they be giving endless operational problems already? 


The Chinese who supplied, built and commissioned the two units answered the question.


“ZETDC (a ZESA subsidiary) owes Hesco around US$430 million. Hesco has no money to pay for operations and maintenance,” the Chinese Company Hesco employee explained. 


“It (Hesco) also has no money to pay for coal supplies and shareholders. Maybe it will be shut down in the future due to lack of money to fund operations. 


“So far, we have invested hundreds of millions of dollars but the return is zero!”


Five key points spring to mind immediately:


  1. 1) We all know that there is no transparency in most projects in Zimbabwe, especially those involving our friends from the East. And so there will be no competitive bidding, there will be corruption, the country is known for not paying its debts, poor project management, etc., etc.; the bottom line is the nation will paying an arm and leg! It is entirely possible 40% of the US$1.4 billion was the “punishment” and so the Chinese are switching off the two generators to pressure the country to cough up!


  1. 2) The Chinese have been making fat profits in the murky diamond and gold mining and, no doubt, in many more other areas. It is quite possible the Chinese are making US$500 million a month from the wholesale looting of diamonds and gold alone. Much more than Hesco is asking for. “What of it?” they would say, if asked.


  1. 3) There have been many “mega deals projects” signed with the Chinese ever since Mugabe’s day that have fizzled out and we now know why. Zimbabwe’s reputation of failing to pay her debts is well documented. In 1999 IMF, World Bank and many other western financial institution stopped advancing any financial assistance to Zimbabwe. Zanu PF leaders and their apologists will never admit financial assistance was cut off for failure to pay debts; they blame sanctions. The Chinese loans will once again be cut off and they have not imposed any sanctions.


  1. 4) How many millions of dollars is the nation losing everyday in lost production and other indirect costs as a result of all these extended ZESA power cuts? A video has been circulating on social media of Chitungwiza Hospital switch off - the consequences are a lot more than “the inconveniences caused”! 


  1. 5) Zimbabweans will complain about the power cuts and even joke about it and move on. At least, they think they are moving on not knowing that they are sinking deeper and deeper into the economic and political hell-on-earth 44 years of gross mismanagement and rampant corruption by Zanu PF thugs and their political MDC/CCC side kick have landed the nation. Nations get the government their deserve and we, in Zimbabwe, do and are paying dearly for our folly!

Wake UP Africa - wake up message from Trump

Truth Hurts...



*🌐"DONALD TRUMP'S SPEECH ON WHY HE HATES AFRICANS & ARABS".*




*Follow news24 channel ✅*

https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaIOdIS7DAWypOdzjd3z


*📰We are not obliged, even for a second, to try to prove to anybody and especially to blacks and Arabs that we are superior people - we have demonstrated that to the black and Arabs in 1001 ways.*

*The America we know today was not created by wishful thinking.We created it at the expenses of intelligence, sweat, and blood.....we do not pretend like other whites that we like the blacks - We must admit, without any fear, that we don't like them, and for so, so, many valid reasons.*


*The fact that blacks and Arabs look like human beings does not necessarily make them sensible human beings. Hedgehogs are not porcupines and lizards are not crocodiles because they look alike. if God had wanted us to be equal to blacks and Arabs, he would have created us all of a uniform colour and intellect. But he created us differently. Whites, blacks, yellow, the rulers and the ruled. intellectually we are superior to the blacks and Arabs.That has been proven beyond the reasonable doubt over the years.*


*I believe that a white man is an honest, God fearing person who has demonstrated practically the right way of being a human. By now every one of us has seen it practically that blacks and Arabs cannot rule themselves. Give them guns and they will kill each other.*


*They are good in nothing else but making noise, dancing, marrying many wives, alcoholism, witchcraft, indulging in sex, pretending in church, jealousy, fighting and complaining of bad leadership; but, yet refuse to take a decisive action and protest to remove the brigands from position of power.*


*Let us all accept the fact that the black man is a symbol of poverty, mental inferiority, laziness and emotional incompetence.To make the matter worse, he can do everything possible to defend his stupidity. Give them money for development and they will fight and create hatred and enmity for themselves. Drill oil wells for them and they will not have peace all the days of their life.*

*See, for instance, what's happening in Nigeria (a Country blessed with abundant resources), Southern Sudan, Malawi, DRC just to mention a few.*

*"This proves to anybody including a stupid fool that Africans do not know what they want. isn't that plausible"?* 

*"They are like monkeys looking for already ripping banana all over the world!!!.*


*Therefore that the white man is created to rule the black man, Africans will always have day dreams.*

*And here is the creature (black man) that lacks foresight but only sees what is near him and still fails to know what to do"*

*A black man is stupid to the extent that he cannot plan for his life beyond a year. Therefore how can they develop and live longer.*


*"Corruption in the west (And China) is a big abomination, but in Africa, it's so huge that it is slowly becoming an acceptable way of life!!!.*(Shame, isn't it?)


*They sing and rejoice to their corrupt political leaders.They worship their scandal-ridden religious leaders like their gods. Lest you forget, these so called Africans are praising, dancing and praying for the people that have impoverished them,and who comes to hide their loot here.*


*Then which fool argues that the black man is not born a beggar, grows a beggar, looks a beggar, falls sick as a beggar and dies a beggar. this has been proven beyond reasoning.*

*I wonder why even up to now most Africans still go to school by force, and those who are at school are are just drug addicts who don't know what took them there. This is a pregnant stupidity in Africa. The body of Africans is a very fertile ground for all diseases in the world because they don't fear even HIV/AIDS.*

*This leaves me with a question: Are our eyes created the same with those Africans? I hear there are still cultures in Africa that prohibit them from using latrines which is very annoying.*


*"They cried for independence but have failed to rule themselves". For sure being African is a very untreatable disease that even prayers are not enough.*

*They have minerals but they cannot do anything with it. Therefore let us (whites) go to Africa and pick what we can pick and leave what is of no use. Poverty is a disease to the whites, but to the blacks it is very normal.*


*"Look at what is currently going on in Nigeria National Assembly. Legislators amending the constitution to favor themselves at the expense of two (200) million Nigerians. The present administration now have no economic blueprint plan, rather than noise and false propaganda. Characterised with hatred and witch hunt/impoverishment".*

*"Majority of these legislators are treasury looters who are intellectually barren but using the ill gotten wealth to oppress the citizens of that great country".*


*"What a shame"!*

*Black people with black sense, and a sick president in London for medical tourism!!!.*


*The worst tragedy in Africa is that if you dare stand up and speak up for what's right, you may end up regretting.*

*"The few wise and open-minded Africans who have tried to educate these fools about civilization have met the worst.They have been pushed hard on the wall, they have been silenced and others have been killed".*

*Before I finish, let me tell Africans that before you jump and call me a racist, an anti-blacks or whatever term you may wish to use against me,1st tackle runaway corruption, dreadful terrorism, tribalism, poverty, unemployment, diseases, illiteracy, ignorance, and inequality, that have put your whole continent on the verge of collapse".*

*"Hate me or love me, I don't care.I know this is the plain truth which will never see the light of the day to the cowards that are afraid to be told as it is".*


*By- Donald .J. Trump.*


*PLEASE SHARE WITH EVERY AFRICAN AND POLITICAL LEADERS SO THAT AFRICA IN OUR OWN TIME WILL EMERGE AN INDUSTRALISED CONTINENT TO PUT THE TRUMPS AND WHITE SUPREMACIST TO SHAME.*


*IF YOU READ THIS AND YOU ARE NOT CHALLENGED AS Ab HUMAN YOU ARE A BORN FOOL!*


WAKE UP AFRICA

"If blacks rule themselves roads will be impassable" Smith predicted. Racist rhetoric is now daily reality! W Mukori

 In 1975 lan Douglas Smith, Prime Minister Rhodesia said, "If blacks are to rule themselves people in towns will walk on sewage until they believe it's normal, all the gains from colonisation will varnish, infrastructure will collapse, roads will be impassable, trains will kill people until they're abandoned as an unsafe mode of transport, hospitals will be closed ,farms will be grabbed and there will be nothing to feed the nation.”


Many, many blacks dismissed the remark back then as white supremacist rhetoric. I would wager that many of them did not even consider that, insulting or not, it was possible the prediction could turn into a prophecy and then a reality.  


Well, 44 years after our independence, there is no denying many people in our towns and cities are walking on sewage and the infrastructure we inherited in 1980 is all in varying stages of rot and decay. 

Are blacks really incapable of self-rule? The reality on the ground says all that  needs be said on the subject.


The more interesting question to ask here would be: what was it that Ian Smith saw in blacks that made him predict with such pin-point accuracy that Zimbabwe, under black rule, will become the epitome of the failed state? For surely it was not written in the stars that blacks are incapable of self-rule.


One of the greatest and obvious weakness amongst blacks is our affinity to shut out, both physical (close our eyes and plug our ears) and mentally (those with low IQ have the knack for dismiss as trivial all those things they do not comprehend), what we do not want to hear. We did not want to hear that the country’s economy will collapse under black rule and so we angrily dismissed that the prediction. 


In 1975 many other African countries had gained their independence and the economic collapse and political chaos had started soon thereafter. There was a distinct possibility that independent Zimbabwe would go down the same path. We did!


It is disheartening that even with all the evidence of our failure to govern ourselves, there are still many black Zimbabweans who still continue to deny Zimbabwe is a failed state much less that the root cause is 44 years of bad governance. They have yet to learn that it is sheer folly to shut out what we do not want to hear especially when it is the truth because it will not go away and, worse still, it will bite you. 


Some races, nations and societies have learned that it is foolish to ignore one’s weaknesses and mistakes whilst we, as black Zimbabweans, have chosen to bury our heads in the sand and have repeated the same mistakes over and over again. We have failed to benefit from human history and our own tragic failures. The penny has not dropped and there is real  fear that it may never drop!

Change will not come out from violent protests or participating in flawed elections. We have been down these rabbit holes! W Mukori

 “Winds of change don’t blow automatically: Zimbabweans need to fearlessly stand up against oppression,” argued Tendai Ruben Mbofana in his blog, mbofanatendairuben.news.blog. 


“In recent years, a transformative shift has been sweeping across Southern Africa.


“A wave of democratic movements and electoral successes by opposition parties has caused significant disruptions in long-standing political structures, particularly in countries where former liberation movements, once heralded as champions of independence, have held power for decades.”


Zimbabweans have gone down this rabbit-hole of armed struggle, violent street protest and participating in flawed elections and they have all failed to end the oppression. We need to ask ourselves why these have failed and stop the insanity of repeating the same mistakes expecting a different outcome. We need to think and act smart!

If the truth be told there have been many occasions when the nation believed the winds of change were blowing, notably when MDC was launch in 1999. The people have risked livelihoods, limbs and even their lives (over 500 were murdered by Zanu PF in 2008 Operation Mavhotera Papi alone) to elect MDC/CCC leaders in power on the belief they would bring about the democratic changes the nation was dying for.


It has been 24 years, including 5 years in the 2008 to 2013 GNU, and MDC/CCC leaders have not only failed to implement even one token reform but, worst of all, they have been participating in flawed elections to give Zanu PF legitimacy for a few gravy train seats reward!


The most memorable stand against oppression was in the fight for independence. There is no denying that everyone played their part from the povo in the rural areas to those with the guns who fought white regime’s soldiers. And yet when it came to the elections in 1980, Mugabe and his cronies denied povo a meaningful vote. Zanu PF told the people if the party did not win those elections the bush war would continue. 


Of course, the people voted to end the war and with that vote lost their right to a meaningful say in the governance of the country. 


Yes Zimbabweans must fearlessly stand up against oppression, again, but first we must establish why their bravery in the past have all failed to deliver the peace, justice, freedom and human rights they were fighting for. Our aim should be to break this cycle of standing up against the oppressors, get all worked up risking all, only for the whole thing to fizzle out and the majority to still find the oppressors’  boot on their necks choking in the gutter. 


All we have ever changed so far is swap white oppressor for black one and after 37 years swapped Mugabe for Mnangagwa. To the oppressed race or name of the oppressors it is academic all the want is to end the oppression. 


Why have we failed to break the cycle of oppression? 


There are many reasons for this but one of them has to be the people ourselves’ failure to define what were the democratic changes required to secure our freedoms and rights and to elect the competent men and women who will implement these changes. 


After the Zanu PF thugs’ blatant betrayal we should have learned the important lesson of making sure we elect competent men and women to implement the democratic changes. Morgan Tsvangirai and company failed to implement even one token reform. And still we have not learned the lesson of the need for competent leaders because millions continue to follow Chamisa and company even now with the mountain of evidence that they are corrupt, incompetent and utterly useless.


It is not the number of violent protests, the value of properties destroyed or the number of the injured and dead that will finally end oppression in Zimbabwe. All these things have happened in the past and yet the oppression has remained. Man is a creature of reason and we must do so now. 


The rallying call is not to go out in the street for fresh protests or to go and vote in flawed elections, “so flawed, so illegal, the logical step is to withdraw,” as David Coltart readily admitted. The rallying call is for people to take time out and be educated on what the democratic changes we need are and to demand that the reforms are implemented before the next elections. 


The whole idea of participating in flawed elections to give vote rigging Zanu PF legitimacy and then stage street protest to remove the regime is the very epitome of moronic madness. Why participate in flawed elections and give the regime legitimacy - thus the whip, the power and authority to whip you. Violent street protests are an attempt to achieve regime-change by unconstitutional means and, per se, a legitimate opportunity and excuse for the regime to whip you. 


The truth is Mnangagwa and his Zanu PF cronies are buffoons and they have managed to oppress us all these last 44 years not so much because they are smart (if they were smart the country would not be in such an economic and political mess). We have been out witted by buffoons for 44 years, that’s all. Of course, it speaks volumes of our own IQ! Ouch! The truth hates. We just need to put our thinking caps on and be smart for a change.

MDC/CCC have "fought in the trenches for change!" said Mahere. Nonsense! Name one change they have brought in 24 years? W Mukori

 The sheer hypocrisy of Zimbabwe’s opposition stinks!


“On the 1st of November, I spoke on the phone with Duma Boko to congratulate him on an outstanding victory in Botswana’s elections. My voice crackled as we spoke.,” wrote Fadzayi Mahere in a recent article in Breaking News Channel (BNC).


“Anyone who has fought in the trenches for change knows how deep and dark the journey can sometimes feel. You fall down often. You fail more times than you succeed. At times, you give everything and it feels like you yield nothing – until change comes. I thanked him for his inspiration and for reminding us of what is possible.


“For Botswana, the old was dying and the new was being born.”


“Anyone who has fought in the trenches for change knows how deep and dark the journey can sometimes feel!” What the devil is she wittering about? 


Ever since the 2008 to 2013 GNU MDC/CCC and Zanu PF leaders have worked as partners and shred the spoils of power. So when has Mahere ever been in the trenches and fighting who exactly?


The people of Zimbabwe have risked livelihoods, limbs and lives, over 500 died in the 2008 elections alone, to elect the MDC/CCC leaders into power for principle task of implementing the necessary democratic changes to stop Zanu PF rigging elections. Morgan Tsvangirai and his MDC friends had their golden chance to implement the democratic reform during the 2008 to 2013 GNU. 


Robert Mugabe, who did not want his dictatorial powers including the carte blanche powers to rig elections scrapped, bribed Tsvangirai and company with the trappings of high office; the E-Class Mercedes Benz limos, the very generous salaries and allowances, a US$4 million Highlands mansion for Tsvangirai, etc., etc. In return the MDC leaders kicked the democratic reforms into the thorny-devil Cactus thicket!


Not even the constant nagging by SADC leaders got MDC leaders to implement even one token reform. Credit were credit is due SA’s Minister Lindiwe Zulu did her best to remind MDC leaders on the need to implement the reforms. Mugabe called her “street woman” for her troubles!


“Mazivanhu eMDC adzidza kudya anyerere!” (MDC leaders have learned to enjoy the gravy train good-life, they will never rock the boat!) boasted Zanu PF cronies during the GNU when asked why MDC leaders were not implementing reforms. 


Ever since the GNU debacle, MDC/CCC leaders have participated in flawed elections knowing fully well that Zanu PF was rigging and that participating would give the regime legitimacy. They have soldier on regardless for the same reasons they failed to implement reforms during the GNU - incompetency and greed. 


The opposition party that conned the biggest number of their supporters to participate in the flawed elections got the few gravy train seats Zanu PF was offering as bait. Chamisa has conned his supporters to participate in the flawed elections with one idiotic lie after another. 


Last year he told them CCC would win big because he had “plugged all Zanu PF vote rigging loop holes. #Godisinit!” The nation did not even have verified voters’ roll and yet knew, from Team Pachedu’s reports, that “the voters’ roll was in shambles”. Chamisa did not even deploy elections agents at 1 000 Polling Stations, or 10%, although he had received funding for it.


It is no exaggeration to say MDC/CCC have been Zanu PF team B in all but name, playing for team A to win and to give team A political legitimacy. How else can one explain why MDC/CCC leaders have failed to implement even one token reform in 24 years, including 5 in the GNU and have stubbornly insisted on participating in the flawed elections knowing the process is flawed and that participating will give vote rigging Zanu PF legitimacy. 


Fadzayi Mahere and company know fully well that both SADC and AU election observers condemned 2023 elections as flawed and illegal and recommended that the country must implement a raft of democratic reforms to end this curse of rigged elections and bad governance. They know that not even one token reform will be implement and still they will participate in the 2028 elections to give Zanu PF legitimacy for the same reasons they participated in the past - incompetency and greed. 


“I hope you know just how lucky you are to live in a democracy where the will of the people is respected and passion for country trumps the love of power!” Mahere told the Botswana citizen siting next to her at President Duma Boko’s inauguration ceremony. 


True enough Zimbabwe is not a democracy and the nation has been held to ransom by Zanu PF leaders’ love of power ever since the country’s independence in 1980. Still, it must be said, the Zanu PF dictatorship has survived and even thrived these last 24 years thanks MDC/CCC leaders’ love of power!  


If there is ever going to be any meaningful democratic changes in Zimbabwe then it is for Zimbabweans themselves to finally wakeup to the political reality that MDC/CCC leaders are corrupt, incompetent and liars. Chamisa and company will never ever deliver any democratic reforms; they failed to do so during the 2008 to 2013 GNU when they had the golden opportunity to do so. It is naive to expect them to do so now when they are very comfortable and cosy, enjoying their share of the spoils of power with their senior partner, Zanu PF!

"I realise now advocating for ED2030 was against constitution. Ndiregererewo!" Yet to realise 44 years of rigged elections! W Mukori

 The Zanu PF factional war is hotting up and fight to be noticed is fierce and furious. “Chava chipatapata nhaka yamakonzo!” as my late mother would say.


“Fellow Zimbabweans, I apologize for my previous stance on 2030. I was blinded by loyalty, but I realize now that advocating for a third term goes against our constitution. Two terms are enough for a president. Let's empower other capable Zimbabweans to lead! Ndiregerereiwo.” posted Killer Zinhu, a former Zanu PF MP.


As much as many ordinary Zimbabweans would want to see every chapter and verse of the constitution honoured they must careful that they are not sucked into fighting a minor skirmish, the two term limit, at the expense of decisive battle, implementing democratic reforms to guarantee free, fair and credible elections not just in 2028 but for posterity. 


This is not only about Mnangagwa honouring the constitution vis-a-vis the two term limit but even more significantly that he and Zanu PF must honour the fundamental freedoms and right of the people including the right to a meaningful vote and even the right to life. Zimbabwe is a failed state because the nation has been stuck with a corrupt, incompetent and murderous regime in power because they rig elections. 


Mnangagwa and Zanu PF rigged the 2023 elections and this time even SADC and AU election observers condemned the election process as flawed and illegal. Mnangagwa and this regime are illegitimate. 


The people of Zimbabwe must understand that this “2030 vaMnangagwa venenge vachipo!” is an Zanu PF factional matter to decide who should be the next dictator because we can be rest assured whoever emerge as the Zanu PF presidential candidate they will rig the 2028 elections. We should not concern ourselves with who should be the next dictator and focus on end the dictatorship.


Only a seasoned nincompoop like Killer Zinhu would be trumpeting his realisation “that advocating for a third term goes against our constitution” as his “Saul on the road to Damascus” moment! So he is still as blind as a mole to the monstrosity Mnangagwa rigged 2023 elections and that Zanu PF has rigged elections for the last 44 years and counting!


In 2017 the people Zimbabwe were conned into taking sides in what was clearly a Zanu PF factional war. Mnangagwa and his fellow 2017 military coup plotters made people believe that the coup would end Mugabe’s rule and restore their freedoms and right. VP Chiwenga portrayed himself as the defender of the constitutions before the coup; he could not name the chapter and verse to justify the coup because there is no such chapter and verse. 


Mnangagwa promise to hold free, fair and credible elections. He did not implement even one token democratic reform and went on to blatantly rig the 2018 and last year’s elections.


Killer Zinhu, war veteran Blessing Geza and many other Chiwenga supporters are trying to stampede the nation into believing stopping this “2030 vaMnangagwa venenge varipo” bandwagon is the number one issue on the national agenda. This is just nonsense. Stopping Mnangagwa alone will accomplish nothing just as removing Mugabe in 2017 alone accomplished nothing.


The 2017 military coup was Pyrrhic victory for povo because we removed one dictator only for the dictatorship to replace him with another dictator. We must learn from the past; this time we must focus on ending the dictatorship itself by implementing the democratic reforms to ensure free, fair and credible elections for all times!
