IN response to Zanu PF demands opening of industries, MAHOSI P GUMBI CHUMA says: It is unfortunate that Zanu PF Bulawayo provincial chairperson Jabulani Sibanda has not learnt lessons from his sacking from the ruling party. How can he demand the opening of Bulawayo industries yet it’s his party which presided over their collapse. Zanu PF is known for destroying the industry through bad policies. The ruling party has for a long time scared away investors, so who is going to open those industries? Zanu PF knows what to do so that industries can reopen. Sibanda should know that business matters cannot be addressed at a political rally.

MUYENGWA TONDERAI says: Unfortunately, the concept of command everything does not work in this case. Clear policies, respect of rule of law and a conducive business environment are the prerequisites for industries to reopen.

LOUIS MURONDA says: Opening of industries requires continuous support. Some industries open only for six to eight months and then close due to high costs of doing business in Zimbabwe and economic instability. Cheaper goods from South Africa also affect local industries as consumers would rather travel to get cheaper and affordable products from the neighbouring country. So, it’s not a matter of opening industries during election period.

SHEPHERD WAMASEDZE says: I think Zanu PF Bulawayo provincial chairperson Jabulani Sibanda is now in panic mode ahead of the March 26 by-elections. The Zanu PF-led government took over this country from the late former Rhodesian Prime Minister Ian Smith with surfaced roads, uninterrupted electricity and water supply, and fully functional industrial parks, but Zanu PF leaders ran everything down. Who do you think will believe them now?

IN response to We’ll deal with you, ED warns CCC, DROMENT CHABATA says: What kind of a President is he, who is in the habit of threatening citizens? This could be the reason why the late former President Robert Mugabe never wanted Emmerson Mnangagwa to succeed him.

IN response to Zimsec markers down tools, ALLAN NHUTAIRA says: Our country’s education system has gone to the dogs. Teachers are paid slave wages, which cannot buy anything. It boggles the mind that government is not even moved by the downing of tools by Zimbabwe Schools Examination Council markers who are demanding their allowances.
