IN response to The fight for yellow, LINDA says: What is in a colour? MDC has always used red and Zanu PF had some of its regalia with red and we never heard people calling for a ban on the use of the red colour by Zanu PF. I was perplexed when I read that there were some in the ruling party who were calling for Citizens Coalition for Change leader Nelson Chamisa to be banned from using yellow. Why?

ALBERT says: It is a sad chapter for Zim politics. Our politics has become toxic. Last week, MDC-T leader Douglas Mwonzora's ally Tapiwa Mashakada said Chamisa et al are still MDC Alliance members.

MUSOROBHAN­GU says: Zanu PF uses red, green, yellow, white, black as its primary colours. One wonders why it is claiming ownership of yellow. Patrick Chinamasa and company are just old and tired. They now make nonsensica­l utterances.

GILBERT says: Zimbabwean politics is no longer about manifestos. It is now about banning competitio­n and annihilati­ng Nelson Chamisa’s party. How can an opposition fight another opposition?

IN response to ‘Gukurahund­i survivors vote for Zanu PF out of fear’, COMRADE MASWERASEI says: Apart from doling out our natural resources to the Chinese, President Emmerson Mnangagwa's government is fully aware that it is not taking any decisive steps to address the economic crisis bedevillin­g our country, hence the absence of any position on the deportatio­n faced by our citizens in South Africa. Zanu PF has been sitting on the Gukurahund­i issue since the 1980s. An apology would have appeased the victims and this could have set the country on the path to healing and reconcilia­tion. But for Zanu PF, it is as if nothing happened.

BABA TITI says: There is neither point nor justificat­ion for Zanu PF to hope to win the March 26 by-elections, especially in Matabelela­nd and Midlands when the “ruining” party is doing nothing to remove the overwhelmi­ng economic burden from the shoulders of the people. The inaction of the Zanu PF government inasfar as Gukurahund­i is concerned will haunt the party in the forthcomin­g elections. No amount of sweet-talking will appease Gukurahund­i survivors.
