Jane Mlambo| Opposition leader, Nelson Chamisa has responded to South Africa’s International relations minister Dr Grace Pandor who said the solution to the multi-layered problems facing the country lies with Zimbabweans themselves.
Responding to Pandor, Chamisa urged South Africa to mobilize donor fund to help pay doctors and end the genocide in the country’s hospitals.
Below is the full thread;
1/3) For months now, we have been asking our African brothers and sisters to look into the man-made governance crisis in Zimbabwe & help us restore the dignity of citizens.We are heartened by Minister Pandor’s correct diagnosis of the major problem in Zimbabwe as toxic politics
(2/3)We in the MDC stand ready to welcome South Africa and SADC’s mediation in Zimbabwe to end the suffering that has gone on for far too long, and give our people hope. In the face of provocation and persecution, our commitment to a sustainable, peaceful outcome has not shirked.
(3/3)Dr Pandor has called for “practical solutions”. I wish to plead with SA, in the interim, to help set up a donor fund for our people from which we can pay our doctors a decent wage. There is a silent genocide in hospitals which cannot wait for politicians to find each other.
