Shyleen Mtandwa | War veterans are discussing the state of the country’s political affairs, as well as President Robert Mugabe’s dynasty.

ZNLWVA secretary general, Victor Matemadanda, told a local weekly that the meeting’s agenda had been changed to enable participants to take stock of their achievements so far in terms of what they fought for.

“We want to assess our prospects as a nation and analyse what kind of political situation Zimbabwe now finds itself in. Are we really a democracy or we are under a dynasty?” said Matemadanda.

“We want to look at why are we facing this terrible economic meltdown and what can be done to rescue the nation from this abyss. We want to evaluate to see what could be our contribution to the economic turnaround,” he told the Fingaz.

The war vets have also crafted a Freedom Charter after a whirlwind countrywide tour during which they collated information.
