Zimbabwe Elections

Zimbabwe elections are around the corner. Scholars have advanced interesting theories on the Zimbabwe situation. A coalition remains the least likely outcome of this election.

Zanu owns the police, army and courts. Everything will be done to ensure they is no outright MDC T win. They will be rigging-this is obvious, MDC T has to overcome the rigged votes.

To rule Zimbabwe, after elections, it is back to Zanu. All contending parties suffer from factionalism. However, to rule fairly, whoever wins the majority needs to court ideas from other parties. MDC T could never rule without control of the army, police, courts and without diamond revenues. Zanu cannot rule effectively without dealing with corruption. Zanu needs MDC's anti-corruption strategies. MDC needs Zanu's resources. The two failed in coalition, hopefully positives come out of this acrimonious divorce.

New Zimbabwe Leadership

Even Naaman was purified. The Old Testament is an intense leadership guide. Namaan, in his pride, initially refused to heed the advice of the wise.

Zimbabwe's leadership suffers a type of leprosy. The leadership team is tainted by greed and corruption. Corruption started economic failure in the 80's. Things fell apart, as corruption increased and hyperinflation set in.

Zimbabwe's economy is avoided by investors. The economy has been damaged by corrupt leadership. Only a purification of the leadership can wash the economy anew. All parties in leadership need to attack corruption. MDC heads are focused on the corruption issue, while ZANU is not ready to deal with corruption. Like the servants who encouraged Naaman, all citizens need to raise the issue of corruption. Only when the leadership washes anew, and is baptized by a desire for honesty, can true development start being realized. Namaan was cleansed, Zimbabwe can be purified.

Zimbabwe election 2013

Politicians will continue to make promises heading into electoral season. The focus of the election is the economy. Given real unemployment hovers above 90% and poverty is rife, Zimbabweans obviously deserve inprovements in livelihood.
These elections will have violent incidents and party infighting will be evident. Zimbabwe's poverty levels make politics the easier route to subsistence and riches-this desperation is the fuel for electoral violence.
One party will argue indigenisation is the policy that will benefit the masses. This is just empty posturing as indigenisation will only benefit the politically connected.
The othe main party will argue it has an economic plan that will attract investment and increase employment. More wishful rhetoric, as the Global economy reamins mired in recession. Europe needs over $60 Trillion(USA Dollars-not defunct Zim Dollars) to support it's financial system.The USA also needs Trillions to fund its Federal expenditure. Zimbabwe, on the other hand, remains one of the least attractive places to invest and this will not change within one election cycle.
Whichever way the elections go, right through the next four years, unemployment will hover around 90% and the majority will still lack opportunity.
