This here should be a joke, it should be satire, and it shouldn’t be real news. However, in the world we living in, it is the reality. That the Members of Parliament (MPs) of the Republic of Zimbabwe. A republic in dire financial distress and inflation, where the economy is on the rocks, the worst in a decade. Still, the MPs in this hour of need. If they want the Parliament to pass the 2019 Budget, the MPs needs Land Cruisers 4×4 Wheel Drive to drive on the shoddy roads of the Republic.
That is the state of affairs as we are going into Christmas, as the Bond-Notes and US Dollars are lacking, fuel crisis and problems of having enough cash to import foreign goods to the shops. It is at this very moment, the MPs decides to get themselves a Luxurious Car in the bargain with the state.
If this isn’t insulting, nothing is, as the MPs are in total disregard of the plight of the common citizen. They are not minding the hardships and lack of prospects. As they adding another tab to be eaten. They are even wanting better deserts after their lunch in the parliament, as their per diem is to low. They want Ipads and other gadgets too, not just the car. They are really going all in. They want to wheel in all the money over the budget. To secure the wealth and the luxury that is possible, while they are in power and has the seat.
With all of this in mind, as we are soon clocking in for the Christmas Eve, they are not the Santa Claus for the people, but the Grinch stealing all of Christmas. They are taking everything at their disposal and the ZANU-PF are showing their disrespect to the public. By assuming this is okay and good work.
The MPs should be ashamed of their greed, of their acts and the their will. They are willing to eat even more of the publics plate, without even caring about serving them. The MPs want to live lavish, want to be knights and kings, they want to be royals, they want to be all the above. Without doing the work or anything. Just writing it off as expenses on the tab of the state. Which is so far from noble as it can possibly be. Especially in a time of inflation and austerity, in a time of need and hurt.
This year shouldn’t be the time for this measure. This year the ZANU-PF have shown their true character of disregard and ignorance about their people. It is proven, by acts and words. This sort of play, shouldn’t even be considered, but it is. Peace.
