By A Correspondent | The pages of history turned at the weekend when ZANU PF President Emmerson Mnangagwa lost all state house decorum as a result of the ongoing recalling of MPs from his opponent Nelson Chamisa’s party.

Mnangagwa used the military: the Zimbabwe Defence Forces to alter the 2018 election results which purpose-deployment was announced on the state television, ZBC, in events that led to his party getting two thirds of Parliament, but has since gone further to publicly humiliate himself by stripping down the remaining MDC Alliance legislatorship through recalls engineered by a court-created small party which has also received military backing from its inception.

Mnangagwa has since become the first politician to preside over a parliament that’s denounced by the country’s largest and most respected body of workers, the Zimbabwe Congress Of Trade Unions.

The development means Mnangagwa is now ranked worse than former Prime Minister, Ian Smith who led the country over 45 years ago.

Announcing the development in a short speech, the ZCTU President Peter Mutasa said:

“We cannot rely on the Parliament which has lost credibility after the
politically motivated recalls of elected Members of Parliament and the
evident whipping system.”

He also went on to speak concerning corruption. He said:

“Workers can not rely on the Tripartite Negotiating Forum which is
dysfunctional due to lack of political will by a government that is keen to
benefit businesses at the expense of the workers.

“The government is
prepared to use the police and military force to enforce its open for
business ideology. In any case the government officials and their cronies in cartels and monopolies are the business owners
benefits.”
