Alex Magaisa says Jonathan Moyo's "sanctions impact research" is meant to prepare Zanu PF for 2018 election, urges opposition to launch counter research

Law expert and political analyst, Alex Magaisa has made an assessment of the “sanctions research” launched yesterday by Higher Education Minister, Professor Jonathan Moyo. In a lengthy Facebook post Magaisa said that the research though packaged as academic is actually meant to gather data for Zanu PF’s 2018 election manifesto.

Reads part of the post:

Next year, Zimbabwe goes for elections. Here, under the guise of academic research, ZANU PF is already gathering and packaging data for its election manifesto. Next year, as the “findings” of the research are announced, the nation will be bombarded with endless sanctions-based propaganda. That it’s packaged as “academic research” is designed to lend it some weight. This is not an innocent research project.

He goes on to urge opposition parties to launch a counter research rather than sit and moan:

But the opposition has to take note of this move. It’s a strategic move designed to influence the election. Here’s my modest suggestion: why not mobilise resources to carry out “research” too? ‪Why not do an alternative project on the economic impact of public sector corruption? Or a research project on what happened to the Marange diamonds? ‬Or better still, how Zimbabwe lost $15 billion under Mugabe’s watch. Don’t just sit and moan.
