Local Government and National Housing Minister Saviour Kasukuwere was today blamed for the Glen View disaster that razed down business properties of vendors and small to medium entrepreneurs on Wednesday morning. THE FULL COMMENT READ:
In a move that most social commentators have deplored, the Glen View 8 Home Industry Complex has been gutted down by fire.
Council officials who preferred to remain anonymous, hinted at the fact the same strategy used on the city vendors-where their wares were burnt as a way to drive them out of the CBD-may in the same vein have been used to drive out the home industrialists.
Zimbabwe’s new local government minister has been on a ‘clean up’ campaign in Harare and this has seen the harassment of poor vendors out of the city, the burning of vendors wares,the destruction of ‘illegally built’ houses in the capital’s peripherals and now the razing down of the industrial complex.
The minister has been known to be bull headed and unreasonable when he sets his mind on something no matter how ignorant or misguided, as minister of indigenisation, he proposed some dysfunctional indigenisation models which but drove investors out of Zimbabwe.
He has also publicly declared he is the biggest thug in the Zanu PF ruling party. And lately the first family has come out confessing that he misled them into firing former Vice President Joyce Mujuru and other senior government officials. It remains to be seen where the youthful but destructive thug of a public official will stop given his ‘bull in a china store demeanour’.
Meanwhile expect him-in an act of public self absolution and pretending to be innocent-to be at the forefront of consoling the aggrieved home industrialists just like he was first to console the family of the late Edward Chindori-Chininga.
