#ShutdownZimbabwenow!# Government gazettes a new law, designed to stop the illegal trade in cash and foreign currency and offenders will face  a 10-year mandatory jail sentence,

The Minister of Finance has gazetted a new law, designed to stop the illegal trade in cash and foreign currency. Offenders will face a stiff penalty of a 10-year mandatory jail sentence, including the freezing of bank accounts while the offenders cash will be forfeited to the state.

Speaking in Parliarment yesterday, Patrick Chinamasa also announced that price controls will be placed by Zimbabwe government , with immediate effect, on basic commodities to in order to normalise the business sector and put a stop on the now common economic scourge of buying and selling cash. This will be enforced by the government through the newly gazetted Exchange Control Regulations enacted by the Zimbabwe President, the despot Robert Mugabe.

These obviously false measures by the government were a response to this week’s panic buying of fuel and basic commodities across the country.

Read between the lines people! I have always said wake up Zimbabwe! Mugabe, Zim1 family, Zanu pf stalwarts and securocrats flooded the market with worthless bond notes ( toilet paper) and took away your US$s.

Lest you forget, Mugabe carries US$4 million on each trip out of the country. He obtains the cash through the President’s Office budget which is not subject to any controls such as auditing. This is the same budget that covers the ruthless Central Intelligence Office (CIO).

Mugabe never has to account for how he uses US$4 million or what is left on each trip. This is why he happily travels with a heavily boated entourage including family, many of whom are issued with diplomatic passports in order to carry out their smuggling and other illegal activities.

The Grace/ Robert Mugabe family continuously swifts away millions of US$ in cash and to the Middle East and invests in expensive properties in countries like South Africa where Grace Mugabe recently bought a R45 million rand mansion. They are running state coffers dry and preparing secure futures, post Mugabe era right under your noses. Wake up Zimbabwe! There is a need for the people to force this government out by shutting it down.

People should stop buying products made or supplied by all Mugabe, Zim1 , Zanu pf stalwarts and securocrats farms and businesses such as Alpha Omega dairies and Mphoko family Choppies amongst many.

We cannot sit back and wait for elections in 2018 only to face an obvious result which is another Zanu pf victory through rigging. We need to shut down the oppreasive regime and make the state ungovernable through all means in our control. These include stay aways, boycotting all products and services by the rogue Zanu pf regime and a firm refusal by opposition to vote until Electoral reforms are put in place.

Our continued silence in the face of relentless oppressive authority by the criminally constituted and unconstitutional government of Zimbabwe, makes us the laughing stock of the whole world. We have the power to bring change to this entropy and return Zimbabwe to normalcy. Information is power! The people of Zimbabwe don’t know their true power, #ShutdownZimbabwenow!# More news to follow. By Sibusiso Ngwenya.
