🇿🇼 Zimbabwe The Minister of Justice has in terms of the Political Party Finance Act disbursed Zig$70,000,000 (US$5,000,000) to political parties for year 2024. The money has been disbursed as follows; ZANU PF - Zig$47,883,500 (US$3,420,250) CCC - Zig$22,116,500 (US$1,579,750)

The art of building inclusive political & economic institutions for durable transformation has been relegated. This explains why after 2023 elections, there appears to be desperate grps with desperate interests without a clear agenda to transform the state among opposition grps.

The 'will to power' has resulted in power struggles in both the ruling party & opposition parties mainly the now infiltrated & fractured @CCCZimbabwe. To them, change can only occur when one grabs power hence 'seek yee the kingdom of political power first.' @PedzisaiRuhanya

The cultural domination of the 'will to power' has largely led citizens to become servile or dormant rather than active actors in the construction of the day to day political questions. @PedzisaiRuhanya @CCCZimbabwe @ZANUPF_Official @OSISA @NEDemocracy @rashidmahiya1

The corruption & decomposition of the political in Zim has resulted in fetishism of power in which President Mnangagwa & the ruling Zanu PF believe they are the sovereign centre of political power & are ordained to rule for life. @PedzisaiRuhanya @ZANUPF_Official @CCCZimbabwe

The ascendancy of President Mnangagwa to power in November 2017 after a military coup resulted in repetition without change in terms of fundamentally changing/reforming the predatory, personalistic, parasitic & extractive nature of politics & governance in Zim. @PedzisaiRuhanya

The path to transform, as history shows, from Europe, North America & some parts of South America, has always been slow & convoluted, but produced robust inclusive democratic & economic institutions, @PedzisaiRuhanya @ZANUPF_Official @CCCZimbabwe @sivioinstitute @rashidmahiya1

In it's latest Zim-Agora Issue, @zditrust submits that the articulation of the national question & practices in terms of the 'will to power' is the fundamental problem facing Zimbabwe at this historical juncture. @PedzisaiRuhanya @NEDemocracy @OSISA @CCCZimbabwe @ZANUPF_Official
