NATIONAL. SHUTDOWN.

Thursday 30 May 2019

Fellow Zimbabweans and comrades, it is evident that our nation is in a sorry state and ED and his government are feasting on our misery.
#Prices for basic commodities have sky rocketed beyond the reach of many of us.
#Its so sad seeing fathers and mothers queing for Zupco for hours hoping it will arrive.
#Its so sad our parents took care of us but now even though we want to we cant return the favour.
#Fuel $8 per litre
# With this pace do you think you are going to live any inheritance for your children.
#We have tried the patience route it has not worked.
#The peace route will never work
# Now we are a laughing stock as Zimbabweans are being labelled educated fools, people that cant stand for themselves, men that are afraid to fight for the future of their children.

We are saying enough is enough. On Thursday 30 May 2019, We are shutting down this nation.
