My Dear People
The revelations by the 2024 auditor general’s report has yet again exposed shocking levels of malfeasance and the depth of the rot that permeates the Ngwena regime.
The report is a damning indictment of the catastrophic failure by the Scarfmore regime to curb corruption despite having set up two anti-corruption units with one of them ensconced right in the office of the octogenarian leader.
The shocking revelations range from the non-delivery of vehicles to some of the regime’s ministries despite having been purchased in 2021 to the brazen theft of funds meant to feed disadvantaged children and used instead for luxury travel for the maid of an employee in the ministry of Labour and Social Welfare.
The report would give Stephen King ,the popular author of horror fiction novels, plenty to work with if he were to ever to pen a novel based on the stinking levels of corruption exposed in this report.
Even parliamentarians, who are supposed to be the bastion of transparency and accountability, are implicated in scandalous abuse of fuel allocations and loan facilities.
Maybe this should not be surprising as the not so august house has been tainted by unelected political frauds disguised as opposition parliamentarians as well as legislators who, according to speaker of Parliament, Jacob Mudenda, struggle to come up with coherent debates of any sort.
This is the reason the regime struggles to get buy-in from citizens when it points to sanctions imposed by the United States as the main reason for the country’s economic crisis characterized by entrenched poverty, closure of companies and massive job losses.

This explosive report on the alarming levels of graft within the Ngwena regime is likely, like all the other reports, to gather dust on shelves in Munhumutapa building.
This is governance failure on steroids!!!
Munopengaaa!!!
The state of opposition politics has really gone down the toilet ever since Nero quit the Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) after it had been hijacked by that buffoon Sengezo Tshabangu with the help of the Ngwena regime.
The sorry state of the opposition was brutally exposed when the CCC in its various factions failed to field any candidates in by- elections held last weekend to allow the ruining party Zanu PF to win some of the seats uncontested.
I can understand why Tshabangu and his CCC faction did not field candidates as it would be weird for puppets to challenge the puppeteer added to the fact that these charlatans still cling to the ridiculous and forlorn hope of being part of a unity government.
However, for the CCC faction leaders Welshman Ncube and Jameson Timba to fail to field candidates, raises serious questions of their relevance in the country’s body politic.
Since Ncube took over as leader of one of the factions of the CCC, he has been more in the news for either fighting for funding for political parties as a result of the 2023 harmonised elections in which he did not even participate, or for the humiliating fallout of his law firm being forced to grovel in apology over fabricated case law and misinterpretations in its legal briefs generated by artificial intelligence.
Timba has been more vocal in barking for funding than the more important role of ensuring that his faction contests to represent constituents around the country in the various by-elections.
That even the washed out politician and Movement for Democracy leader Dougie is making an effort to appear visible by contesting some of the by elections, should make the likes of Ncube and Timba hang their heads in shame.
Despite all the criticism levelled against him, the abysmal failure of various opposition party leaders shows that Nero remains the only game in town when it comes to taking on the Ngwen regime.
Munopengaaa!!!
The remarks by former Mozambican President Joaquim Chissano threatened to spoil the backslapping and camaraderie at a dinner held before the Liberation Movements Summit held last weekend.
Chissano pointed out that liberation movements on the continent have deviated from what they stood for, which is to serve the people.
He added that some liberation movements are not open to criticism.
Among those who must have been very uncomfortable with this speech was the Scarfed One , who has been the subject of trenchant criticism for human rights violations back home which has been characterised by arrests of opposition politicians, civil rights activists and journalists for prolonged periods without trial.
Under Ngwena even protests which are enshrined in the constitution as a right has been criminalised with even those who hold one-man protests being thrown into the country’s overcrowded prisons.
Chissano must have had in mind the angry reaction by the regime to the report of the Sadc observer mission of the 2023 harmonised elections in which it pointed out that it fell far short of the country’s constitution and Sadc guidelines.
It is refreshing that not all those who attended this useless meeting were ready to turn a blind eye to the rampant shortcomings of these liberation movements particularly the ruining Zanu PF since the disgraceful removal of the telescopically foresighted and wisdom imbued Gushungo.
