MDC should be more active
“Why can’t MDC aspiring MP’s mobilise their supporters to register to vote and go with them, they are busy sleeping while Zanu PF is on the ground. Does Tsvangirai know that his supporters are being frustrated out there, if he sleeps he is going to lose.
We are fed up by the frustrations we are getting cause there is no help from the MDC’s.”
Zanu PF in Dotito
“Zanu PF in Dotito is forcing us to fill what they call data forms where all your details are filled in. They want to get rid of people who belong to the opposition. People are afraid so they are filling the forms Masabhuku are at the fore front of leading people.
You find all the villagers are filling them. What I think is during election campaigns people will be told that since you filled that Zanu PF data form you belong to Zanu PF and must vote for them.”
ZEC in Tafara
“Yesterday (17 June 2013) I was trying to check my name in the voters roll at a certain school in Tafara where the ZEC mobile team is. Bhora Mugedhe yakapedza basa kare.
The voters roll is in shambles for the opposition party. Of the 20 who were in the room only 3 managed to confirm there names in the voters roll but they voted in 2008 chiona panotanga bhora rese.
After zita rako rashakwa you are told to join the queue again, to add to your agony they issue ma number they are ka one chete pazuva that means kuti the 17 out of 20 people rejoin the queue again imagine the frustration that you get.
In the meantime the bhora mugedhe team will be busy fishing its people from the queue registering them through the back door. In my case my name is in the voters roll but my address ndeye ku Magwegwe in Bulawayo imagine that means if i wont vote come polling day.
Apa ma aspiring candidates e MDC vacho vana (James) Maridadi they are nowhere to be seen they are busy enjoying the warmth yemaheater isu tichigwagwadza nechando with no one to assist us.”

BORN FREE OPEN LATER TO THE PRESIDENT
“When the President says he will never retire because his people still want him to rule…am I also counted amongst those people??? U know me I am straight, I love my President left centre right and he is a good leader.
But let me say I personally think he needs to retire, everyone needs to retire take a rest, be an adviser to the incoming and write memoirs. Even Jesus knew that his people still wanted him to be there physically but he ain’t here.
Even Moses did not reach Canaan though Isralites still needed him more than ever. We are ready to lead the country your Excellence makatiendesa kuchikoro and we learnt a lot from you PLEASE.”

Lets Fire the Generals
“I think the so called commander in chief must fire the generals so that they join politics on full time basis. All progressive forces must now fight the Generals on all fronts. SADC must also act on the same.We have a lot of people fighting for personal survival to the detriment of economic and social development.
They accuse the progressive forces of wanting to hand back the country to our colonisers forgetting that they are actually suppressing the masses. God Bless Zimbabwe.”
Corruption at National Employment Offices
“There is organised corruption at the National Employment offices Corner Rudd Street and Nehanda Street, although the so called anti corruption team visited the place a few months ago. The corruption is so serious that job seekers paying lots to get mabasa in government.
Women are being asked for sex to get jobs. The corruption is so serious that in involves everyone at the place, from the boss to the vendors . Toita sei isu tisina mari yekutenga mabasa we spend most of our time there but hapana chinobuda. For your own info visit the place and get it all from the Job seekers.”
Chegato Primary School
Last year 2012; six grade seven pupils failed failed to get their results for no apparent reason at Chegato Primary School in Mberengwa in the Midlands province. ZIMSEC failed to give a satisfactory answer why results for these pupils failed to come out.
The six pupils went to form 1 with letters confirming that their results are yet to come. Just imagine the inconvenience. The head of the school traveled several times to Gweru pressurised by parents to find results, nothing came out .
The results were sent to the school in March by Zimsec. And no explanation was given. You can contact the head of Chegato 0713219927.”

May the authorities do something before we the surrounding companies are also in trouble health wise because typhoid can be on our door steps if we remain quite.”
Golden handshake while employees are in poverty
There is a financial institution which gave its retiring CEO $5 millon as package whilst its employees are wallowing in poverty. Is it not heartless to award such a hefty amount to one person denying the employees mandatory profit sharing.
Generally of the $7,8 million profit realised the whole year a single individual pockets $5 million meaning we are just working to enrich other people who are taking advantage of their political connections to bankrupt and sabotage our economy-disgruntled servant.”
St Annes Goto Mission School
“We parents are paying school fees under these harsh economic conditions, we expect a service from teachers especially boarding schools. I was not pleased when I visited my child at St Annes Goto Mission School and my child doing form 5 complained that the chemistry teacher had only come for lessons twice since schools opened. Head of Department Mr Macheka do something or else”
Disgruntled member of the security sector
“I am amongst the disgruntled in the security sector. I am not pleased with the way our bosses treat us…they treat us like slaves or second class citizens.. we are assaulted, shouted at and reduced to stooges. The liberation of Zimbabwe without liberation of the security forces is much ado about nothing.
Come elections, they threaten our families with eviction from camps, to force us to support a regime that slaughtered our families during Gukurahundi and destroyed our houses in Operation Murambatsvina to mention but a few abuses…we are tired!
Chirisa Game Park
“Gokwe South. The once Chirisa Game Park will be a thing of the past if the fast tracked pegging of farms in the game park due this month succeeds. The pegging team is in Chirisa (14 days ago).

Driver who smokes Mbanje
It was on a Sunday when we were travelling from Mutare to Bulawayo. The driver who was driving us was somehow drunk or mentally challenged. He was not obeying road rules to the extent that he was overtaking where it was not safe to do so and he was by the name Ndlovu.
He did this several occassions to the extent that we were almost involved in an accident and it was going to involve the bus, 2 small vehicles and a truck. This happened near Scooter Business Centre along Zvishavane-Mbalabala road.
This led passengers to boycott the trip if that driver was to continue driving the bus which belongs to Jomo. To our suprise some other staff who work for the same bus operators know that this driver in question smokes dagga (mbanje).
A week before this incident the driver was said to have driven off the road and when the passengers asked him why he did so and he replied them : ‘ndanga ndichitevera permit yanga yadonha’ so I beg all passengers who use publuc transport to be aware of these drivers.”
