On the night before the Constitutional Court hearing into the Presidential election petition filed by Nelson Chamisa, state-owned broadcaster ZBC aired an advert congratulating President Emmerson Mnangagwa on his resounding victory. The advert was sponsored by Vice President, retired General Chiwenga, The Ministry of Defence and War Veterans and the Zimbabwe Defence Forces. Critics have said that the video is an attempt to intimidate the justices of the Constitutional Court.

Did those Zimbabweans who voted for Mnangagwa and ZANU-PF really think the crocodile had shed its thick insensitive hide?
Under his watch, unarmed civilians are brazenly gunned down in the street with the whole world watching, and ED and his generals do not bat an eyelid. They are completely indifferent and would rather point fingers elsewhere!
And now they are patting each other on the back for a job well done, a nation and people completely bamboozled once again.
We are better off under these guys than under Mugabe? I don’t think so.
Makavhota. Like they say, a nation gets the government it deserves.
