IN response to CCC thumbs nose at congress idea, PIKIRAYI says: Whoever wants the Citizens Coalition for Change to hold a congress before next year’s elections has lost their marbles. They should form their own party and hold their congress. Former Cabinet ministers Jonathan Moyo and Walter Mzembi should first come back to Zimbabwe and attend Zanu PF’s congress this year before they can talk about CCC congress. CCC is led by adults, and not children who need to be told what to do. Everyone who wants CCC to hold a congress, I say to you, go hang!

says: Why would you worry yourself about what happens next door if it doesn’t affect you? If you were there when they formed CCC, then you know the channels to put your complaints, or else leave them do what they are doing, they know what they are doing. After all, they aren’t even the ruling party. Why are you not worried about Douglas Mwonzora’s biggest opposition party in Zimbabwe?

SHEPHERD NYATHI

says: This is how dictatorsh­ips are born. A party with no elected leadership is a danger to democracy. Right from the beginning, I knew that it was a personal property. A few men and women sat down in dark corners and gave themselves positions and presented themselves as the chosen ones. Their sycophants and gullible followers want us to believe that they stand for democracy, yet this is a clear plan to gain power.

IN response to Nightmare as inflation spikes to 96,4%, GWIZHIKITI says: The horses have bolted. Zanu PF will never be able to tame the runaway inflation. This is what happens when an election is stolen, when you force yourself onto the people. Industry has lost confidence in President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s administra­tion, the education, security, transport sectors, in fact everyone does not see light at the end of the tunnel as long as we continue to have Zanu PF at the helm.

IN response to Citizens agonise over price hikes, PIKIRAYI says: People are failing to make ends meet. The other day, I saw a post on social media which showed a packet of biscuits going for $1 100, and yet civil servants earn around $28 000, which means their salary can only buy 27 packets of biscuits. The consumer basket is now beyond $91 000. How do civil servants make ends meet? How do they buy groceries pay rentals and pay fees for their children?
