THE TEMPORARY SPEAKER: Order, Hon. Members. Allow him to finish his debate.
HON. NDEBELE: This country seems to be administered like a tuck-shop. Our hardworking vendors can do better than what obtains here. I do not know why Ministers are not copying from our hardworking vendors out there. It also baffles the mind Hon. Speaker, when you get up one morning to read in the newspaper that a whole Minister of Finance has borrowed money from the Treasury. It is not a loan disbursing institution. Are you as Parliament able to borrow me money because of all the people here, I am broke.
If you interrogate ZESA, those who provide water, those with outstanding phone bills that have not been paid for more than 10, 15 or 20 years, you will discover it is Ministers. I agree with Hon. Chamisa when he argues that this country has very dangerous Ministers. Look at the Presidential Scholarship. Currently, it is benefiting children of Ministers, people who are able in their own right to send their children outside the country at the expense of very poor children.
I also want to attempt the question – what has this Government done in Magwegwe to alleviate the effects of drought? Hon. Speaker, I want to reiterate in this House that the Government of Zimbabwe belongs to all the people. Why has the ruling party abandoned the human rights posture? What has happened to the concept of isotsha elipetu mtwana? Why is the ruling party in the forefront of partisan distribution of food? What is happening?
