Zanu PF is carpet-bombing Nkulumane with handouts before the upcoming by-election after businessman Paul Tungwarara rolled up in a helicopter to announce a $100,000 revolving fund plus promises of food aid, seed packets, boreholes, and WiFi kits. Youth Affairs minister Tinotenda Machakaire admitted party elites in Harare were hoarding benefits, and residents needed to join the feast, basically confirming the ruling party knows people are broke from decades of misrule but only cares during campaign season.
The seat opened up after MP Desire Moyo died in a crash, and nine candidates are fighting for a constituency that rejected Zanu PF for over 20 years until the opposition splintered, thanks to Sengezo Tshabangu wrecking the CCC from within.
Critics say the cash dump is an admission that poor governance turned voters into charity cases while party bosses live large off state resources.
