Nelson Chamisa (left) and Tendai Biti, seen here with US Congressmen genuinely believe they have the keys to billions of dollars from the West Reason Wafawarova on Monday It is an accepted fact in political intellectualism that political engagement is an important facet of the relationship between authorities and citizens. These are states that do not carry out elections, states that are authoritarian and led by an established and accepted leadership hierarchy or order. So an aspiring MP will first establish relations with those that already have power in the establishment; be they political leaders of opposition political parties or the governing authorities. In global politics poor dependent countries like us and the rest of African countries are the clients, and we know very well how we kowtow to powerful countries in anticipation of donations and political or military protection. So the frequenters now own food aid, not the state, the frequenters now own health facilities, not the state, the frequenters now own taxes, not the state. The United States wants Zimbabwe isolated and sanctioned so that allotment of resources is dependent on powerful and rich countries, when they will be given with stringent strings attached. ZIDERA is an act of law designed to politicise food, health, livelihoods and lives of innocent citizens of Zimbabwe. This is not how governance works. This is not how democracy works. This is not what liberation wars are fought to achieve.
