Have the lockdown conditions changed? Are we still allowed to go buy food & meds? In Byo yesterday & today, police were impounding cars left right & centre; arresting people outside supermarkets, pharmacies & other places govt said were accessible? Kwenzakalani?

There are roadblocks before you get into town where police ask where you’re going & let you thru. Only to get into town & be arrested, car impounded. I mean everyone & anyone essential services providers too. A skies fm employee was told you should have used Zupco.

So after impounding car you are told from Ross camp, go & pay fine at central police & come collect car. Fine. But guess what, after paying $200 fine- no car. People waited all day only to be told we’ve received a directive-cars can only be collected after lockdown.

If you go to the impounding yard right now,
You will see they impounded even lorries that carry livestock,
Is agriculture no longer an essential service?
Dear friends,
Is this happening in your cities too?
Or just in Bulawayo?
1st they beat pedestrians,
Now this?
#ZanuPfMustGo
What’s most worrisome,
People spent yesterday trying to sort this out to no avail,
Many returned to police camp today,
Were sat side by side,
No chance of social distancing if you wanted progress.
Even the police had no masks,
No gloves,
Does gvt want an outbreak?
#ZanuPfMustGo
The president must address the nation and say exactly what the new lockdown conditions are? We have no pharmacies in our neighborhoods. No mealie meal. No vegetables. No hospitals! We had no money to buy in bulk. What is going on? Is this fundraising thru fines?
#ZanuPfMustGo
Why would you have roadblocks,
Allow people to get into town,
Then waylay & arrest indiscriminately?
What does the statement “you the person are the essential service not your car” mean? Why should nurses,journalists, fuel att. with cars use Zupco? What’s the logic?
#ZanuPfMustGo
#COVID19 Lockdown is a good idea,
Our best bet probably.
But president must understand our context,
Our plight.
Pregnant women are losing babies in rural areas coz no transport to hospitals.
Pharmacies not taking medical aid so we’re buying chronic meds bit by bit
#ZanuPfMustGo
I know people who have stopped taking BP, diabetes, glaucoma meds completely because they cannot afford. Cardio aspirin for heart patients, Aspirin only is going for $200,
That’s just one drug of many that they must take,
People will die,
And not just from #COVID19!
#ZanuPfMustGo
The extreme disrespect the gvt has for people who are peacefully, respectfully & legally going on with their jobs &lives, despite the challenges brought by gross misgovernance should not be tolerated. We should resist it vehemently. We must make them respect us!
#ZanuPfMustGo
My heart broke today when I saw supermarket employees I know walking home for distances of up to 10km. Reason being there is no public transport except for Zupco- most would rather walk than risk further exposure in Zupcos.
We need a revolution.
#ZanuPfMustGo
Gvt is deliberately pushing people to the limits,
Provoking us into disobedience.
They know chaos will remove focus from their inexplicable failures in the health sector.
They keep provoking us. But we must not take the bait. Let’s #StayHome ,
But after #COVID19,
#ZanuPfMustGo
