MDC Youth Assembly yesterday chose a packed National Sports Stadium to express anger and disgust towards Emmerson Mnangagwa’s military dictatorship which has plunged the nation into a hellhole because of the economic meltdown.

With Zimbabwe Warriors searching for a goal against a tactically disciplined Botswana Zebras team, MDC Youths housed at Bay 13 raised placards calling for a substitution.

The message was very loud and clear that Emmerson Mnangagwa has failed, hence should be red carded.

Some placards read, “Economy 2-ED 0” while others were screaming for the need for change in the political field.

The MDC Youth Assembly made it clear that there is need for a crucial political substitution or better still a political red card to a man who is the architect of our problems from every facet.

Clearly there was no motivation from a Warriors team whose key players ply their trade in Europe and SA but were made to face reality back home when they were offered a valueless currency in allowances.

If Marvelous Nakamba needed an explanation on the ongoing tiff between government and civil servants, a poorly run ZIFA gave him a micro of the macrocosm about the state of affairs in our country.

From every facet be it economics, politics and sport, the country is in a comatose.

As the MDC Youth Assembly we are very clear that Emmerson Mnangagwa is the source of our problems hence should be substituted from the political arena.

Only a player with pro-poor policies and a social contract with masses can steer the country forward.

Just like in football, a team can only win by scoring and not conceding goals.

Sadly the team running the affairs of this country are conceding own goals through elitist austerity policies and command politics.
