Mugabe renew the promise to pay civil servant pay rise - how when the economy is the sinking Titanic!


Mugabe says the promise to pay the civil servants a pay rise will be honoured.

"We are currently going through a difficult patch as a result of the sanctions that were imposed on us," he said.

"This has resulted in a delay in the fulfilment of the promises of a salary increment that we made last year.

"It is, however, just a technical delay in the mobilisation of the monies, but the promise will be honoured. It is our wish, as Government, to have all our workers adequately compensated for their hard work."

Yes we have heard that one before! The important question is why is that there were no “technical delay in the mobilisation of the monies” to pay for his $ 1 million birth day bash, for his daughter’s $5 million wedding, for his two $ 5 million statues from North Korea, for $ 20 million for new cars for his ministers, for the billions dollars pay to top Zanu PF loyalists running government owned/controlled institutions like PSMAS, ZESA, etc.

Mugabe’s reckless spending to finance the vote rigging operation of the July 2013 elections has left the Zimbabwe government broke. All these extravagant spending on the wedding etc. have only made things worse but it is the rampant corruption that has been going on for the last 34 years that has delivered the coup de grace on the economy and ultimately on the Zanu PF dictatorship and the tyrant himself.

The Zimbabwe economy is like the Titanic taking in water after striking the iceberg. It is a mathematical certainty the economy will sink and the clock is ticking. Unlike the Titanic, the Zimbabwe economy can be saved but the window of opportunity to do so is closing. The only to save the Zimbabwe economy is by removing this egotistic, corrupt and murderous tyrant from State House because nothing will ever be achieved whilst he remains in control.

Mugabe’s hope is to die on the helm and the sinking ship to be his coffin! He is 90 years old and he has already started spending his ill got wealth as if he does not expect to see the next day. And each day he finds he is still alive, he throws another party to celebrate. All paid for by the impoverished Zimbabweans, who else!

Why the nation should be denied hope and a future just because he evil past has finally caught up with him. He has denied corruption for 34 years and now the monster has grown and so too has its insatiable appetite. Corruption has consumed everything of value in Zimbabwe; Mugabe has no money to pay ordinary workers or loot to feed his corrupt party loyalists. He is being squashed from both side, there is no escape for him.

If his sanctions allegation were to be believed even for one moment then they point to a fundamental but serious weak-ness in the Zimbabwe economic situation. If sanctions can be imposed on a hundred individuals by a handful of nations and the whole national economy collapse then those hundred indi-viduals must be have a lot of economic clout indeed.

A nation of over 12 million people and all economic power is in the hands of Mugabe and his cronies. One has to ask Mugabe how did this happen, if this is not further evidence of rampant corruption and looting by the ruling elite?

The acolytes have continued to cheer and applaud on clue up to now because Mugabe has allowed them to loot as their re-ward. But now with nothing left to loot the acolytes will all disappear like mist under the morning African sun! Cheering this nonsense day after day and go back home to seat in the dark because there is no electricity in a house smelling like one of those rural pity toilets because there is no running water to flash the toilet, etc. is wearing these acolytes' patience!

To add salt to injury none of these acolytes Ruwa, Gerro, Nofool and company were invited to the wedding or any of the big feasts; the tyrant would denounce them when push comes to shove. Some of these idiots have shed innocent blood of Zimbabweans in the name of Zanu PF but Mugabe will never lift a finger to help them with legal fees when they are arrested as is certain to happen.

We have done nothing else but "leave him be" for the last 34 years and what has he done other than drag the nation deeper and deeper in this hell-on-earth.

God gave us the brain to solve this man-made problem and you are just one of those lazy individual who have let their brain turn into fat after years of sloth like inactivity.

"God will get him and his descendant!" that is a typical re-sponse from a sloth who - fire a shotgun right in its face and all it will do is open its sleepy eye blink a few times and go back to sleep. Wake up you idiot!

100 children below the age are dying every day of preventable diseases what descendants will they ever have? And yet the murderous tyrant who have denied millions of Zimbabweans hope, human dignity and a future is giving his daughter a $5 million wedding, millions of $ in presents, 55 herds of cattle, etc., etc. whilst you keep wittering of God punishing his de-scendants he is doing his best to ensure they will endure the punishment in comfort!

If the Children of Israel have to endure hardship of the long journey from Egypt to the Promised Land and they are the chosen people. What makes you think God is going to step in to help Zimbabweans who are too lazy to use their brain to solve their problems? You are certainly of those lazy Zimbabweans who will not stop to think even for one minute! And an idiot like you has a vote - s***t! No wonder we are in a mess!
