Dear Editor

Zimbabwe is in crisis,

COVID-19 is here. We are an informal sector and 90 percent of our workforce live on hand to mouth.

Our government has injected close to ZWL$7 billion to fight this pandemic and my request is to ask for our government to do the last extra ordinary thing and the only thing that can save urban lives.

I am kindly asking the Government of Zimbabwe to provide free electricity of all urbanites as a state of emergency.

The cost for electricity is beyond the reach of an ordinary Zimbabwean and in these times of crisis this is when our listening government has to show concern and care for its citizens and immediately introduce FREE electricity for all Zimbabwean for the next 30 days. I am aware of the electricity bill involved remember this is a matter of life and death. 

COVID is here but hunger and poverty will kill us. Let us save the people of Zimbabwe and Give them Free ZESA for 30 day. 

Regards

Engineer Jacob Kudzayi Mutisi
