People must standup if they want democracy in Zimbabwe
Despite having world’s largest inflation and shattered economic system, Zimbabwe goes to election on June 27. Why? Because there was no clear winner in the March Presidential elections. And how could there be when dictator Robert Mugabe continues to exercise his uncontrolled power. When asked if the country is prepared to face these elections, HE Jonathan Wutawunashe, Ambassador of Zimbabwe said to B&E, “The Constitution requires that, in the event of a failure by the electorate to elect any candidate to become their President, a runoff election should be conducted.”
But the last elections were a total mess up. Even with 49.4% votes, Morgan Tsvangirai was not able to dethrone Mugabe, who still sits on the chair with 42.3% votes. There are doubts that the counting was done fairly. Possible, because Mugabe’s loyalists are placed strategically everywhere. With such a network it is very much possible for him to twist and turn the results as per his requirements. This time too, there is no guarantee that elections will be held freely and fairly.
