Political analyst, Alexander Rusero has the condemned what he termed the caricaturing of parliament by legislators from both MDC and Zanu PF who continue to engage in petty politics at the expense of legislative agenda.

In an interview with Newsday, Rusere said

“Its unfortunate part was that Parliament was currently being reduced into a caricature, with no pragmatic policies being crafted, and with Zanu PF failing to use its two-thirds majority to demonstrate servant leadership.

“Everything is sacrificed whenever Zanu PF wants to play the big brother role and pretend that they have a bigger role to play and they need to concentrate on issues affecting the people, instead of MPs,” he said.

“The moment you have one political party posturing and trying to be populist on the issue of MPs’ vehicles, it becomes a problem.”

Rusero added that instead of trying to pontificate and pretend to be less greedy than opposition MPs, Zanu PF should concentrate on fixing the comatose economy.

“We have not even seen these Zanu PF MPs in fuel queues, suffering like the rest of the Zimbabweans and their stance is merely populist,” he said.
