MDC-T says Mugabe is smelling blood and is spoiling for a fight

Against all macro – economic fundamentals and financial logic, the crumbling Zanu PF regime has declared that bond notes will start to circulate at the end of October, 2016. Already, there is an unprecedented run on deposits at the country's banks and other financial institutions because the people of Zimbabwe are scared of losing out on their little hard – earned hard currency.

Mugabe has proved that he doesn't give an iota about the suffering of the majority of the people as long as the few ruling elites continue to lead lavish lifestyles in high society. More than 90% of the people of Zimbabwe are now classified as living in abject poverty and penury because they are living on less than US$1 per day.

The MDC, once again, calls upon SADC, the AU and even the United Nations, to urgently place Zimbabwe back on the agenda. The prevailing security and political situation in the country is untenable ; particularly considering the fact that Mugabe himself recently threatened to unleash terror and brutality on all leading opposition politicians such as MDC President Morgan Tsvangirai.

Mugabe is smelling blood. He is spoiling for a fight. In these circumstances, therefore, Zimbabwe could quickly slide into anarchy and State – sponsored banditry and terrorism if SADC, the AU and the UN do not promptly intervene to find a lasting and sustainable solution to the long – standing Zimbabwean political and socio – economic crisis.

The toiling masses of Zimbabwe are crying out to be heard by both the regional and the international community at large. Robert Mugabe and his rogue, politically delinquent and paranoid Zanu PF regime shouldn't be allowed to continue holding Zimbabweans to ransom.
