Tsvangirai says Mugabe’s age is now a crisis itself

 

 Conclusion

I want to conclude by leaving you a challenge.

Rights will never be voluntarily given to you, especially by this government. Rights will have to be demanded.

As students, you must not look at your problems in isolation. They are part and parcel of the national rot under this clueless party in government.

It must be made clear to everyone that all these challenges we face are a reflection and a consequence of the crisis of legitimacy stemming from the stolen election of 2013. No one can do business with a bunch of thieves masquerading as a government.

The only credible way forward for all of us as a collective is to ensure that we usher in a legitimate government at the next election. Any government must be a product of a free, fair, peaceful and credible election.

We must all join hands in demanding not only the implementation of the Constitution, but also the institution of far-reaching reforms to ensure that the next election does not breed yet another uncontested outcome.

As students, you represent the future of the country. You are the leaders of tomorrow. But the leaders of tomorrow cannot just stand idle while tomorrow is under siege from the men and women of yesterday.

Ahoy mastudents ahoy! 

I thank you!
