Terrence Mawawa| Pharmacies in Masvingo have closed doors due to the worsening economic crisis in the country.

Dr Takafariva Zhou went through a harrowing experience as he tried to purchase drugs for his mother yesterday. Below is Dr Zhou’s statement:

Yes all the pharmacies in Masvingo have closed today. One closed its doors just as I wanted to get in to buy medication for my ill mother.

Other areas will follow suit. Their argument is that it has become useless to sell medication using bond notes as they cannot replenish their supply from such a currency.

Unless something is done, shops may close en masse in two weeks. Ncube and Mangudya have just given a wrong prescription to our economic and fiscal disease.

Unless we amplify our voices against a wrong dosage administered to us we will gradually be suffocated by economic these bandits whose sole purpose is personal profit, primitive accumulation of wealth at the expense of the struggling generality of Zimbabweans.

A nation that continues to produce soft-minded men and women in times of crises purchases its spiritual death in an instalment plan. Zimbabwe has certainly reached dangerous levels.
