Mugabe promises to exterminate corruption by firing corrupt Police
Officers, corrupt Ministers, anyone and everyone guilty of corrupt.
“I was getting complaints even kunze from former South African president Thabo Mbeki who said some of our ANC people who come (to Zimbabwe) trying to do business, have been told, if you want to do business you should give us US$1 million. No, it is now US$5 million. We will take some of the money to President Mugabe, zvekundinyepera,” Mugabe said.
Why has he not done so all these years?

The only sure way of ending the corruption that has dragged the nation
into economic despair and political chaos is to vote the principal architect of
this chaos out of power. The chaos has served him well and he will never ever
destroy it. All he is offering to do is punish the small fry and leave the big
fish untouched. Mugabe himself is one of the really big fish in this pond!
He is making the promise to end corruption hoping that such a promise
would entice the people into believing him and dropping their insistence on
free and fair elections - the only sure way the nation can get Mugabe out of office
and thus end this madness.
It is the people's democratic right to fire him through free and fair
elections. Mugabe should not be allowed to deny the people that right by
holding yet another fraudulent election.

The only reason Mugabe and Zanu PF would feel upbeat about winning next year's elections is because the party is now more confident than ever that it will be able to use violence and get away with it. For the last four years the party was worried it would not be able to resist pressure from its partners in the GNU to implement the democratic reforms including security sector reforms which would have put an end to Zimbabwe's culture of political violence. Fortunately for Mugabe and Zanu PF the pressure never materialized!
It was Mugabe and Zanu PF would have brought the country into this mess and the policies he is promising would drag the nation even deeper into the mess. Zimbabweans know that and that is why he and his party would never win free and fair elections. The only way Zimbabweans can stop Mugabe and Zanu PF destroying the nation is by insisting that the next elections must be free and fair, by insisting the democratic reforms are implemented! And to make sure their demand for free and fair elections is fulfiled, the people must reject the Copac constitution in upcoming referendum.
