Zimbabweans are worse off than they were under the tin-pot dictatorship of the late Robert Mugabe.Prices of goods and services are well beyond the reach of many.. On the human rights score, Mnangagwa’s administration has become a joke.In August 2018, the military killed six civilians after protests in the capital on perceived delay in announcement of harmonised elections results.

In January this year, at least 12 civilians died during protests against a sharp rise in fuel prices.Despite a commission of inquiry being set up and recommending punishment for the perpetrators of the first killings, not even a single soldier has been tried for the heinous crime.Over 50 people have been abducted since January and the abductors have not been accounted for..Rallies by the MDC, the largest official opposition party in the country, have been banned on contrived flimsy allegations that they would turn violent.
