By Admire Machiwenyika| The outspoken FreeZim Congress President, Joseph Makamba Busha has castigated President Emmerson Mnangangwa over the level of corruption in government and the interference with the judicial system.
The losing presidential candidate in the controversial July 30 elections challenges Mnangagwa to deliver on his promises to shun out corrupt ministers and brought them to justice.
“Even up to now those few ministers who have been taken for questioning have not been charged and we know them. I’m not sure if those are the only people who have committed crime in Zimbabwe,” expressed Busha.
“I also implore the government to stop interfering with the judicial system when these matters are being dealt with in courts,” added Busha.
FreeZim president lashed at the President Mnangagwa for falling short on his promises to the struggling ordinary Zimbabweans.
“There are issues to do with job creation and improvements of lives. The people will always remain hopeful but they need something tangible. One of the things that Zimbabweans were repeatedly told was that the criminals who were causing corruption would be removed, but that was not the case.
Busha went to castigate the new dispensation over other undelivered electoral promises such as cash shortages, fuel crisis and many other issues affecting millions of Zimbabweans.
During the campaigning period, Mnangagwa made a cocktail of promises including creating employment, opening up new industries through foreign direct investment among others.
“The so called new dispensation is facing the same situation we faced in 2008 were people were queuing for money in the banks, people were queuing for fuel on petrol stations. If you were not around in 2008 and you went away only to come in 2018, certainly there would be no difference because the environment and circumstances remain the same,” said Busha
“We talk about a new dispensation when there is no change. A new dispensation is about new leadership not change of positions. So our view is that there is no change because Zimbabweans are still battling to get cash to be able to do their activities,” said Busha.
Busha was among the presidential hopefuls that stood for this year’s elections which were subsequently won by the Zanu PF leader Emmerson Mnanganwa only after a Concourt ruling against Chamisa who had challenged the result.
