It has been revealed that the Zimbabwe government is spending up to US$1.5 million paying wages for 15 000 idle Zanu Pf youths “employed” as civil servants. The Zanu Pf youths recruited to campaign for Robert Mugabe have often been accused of violence against the opposition MDC supporters. So, why should the new Unity government continue to waste money on these thugs?
In fact the MDC should not be part of a government which sponsors thugs who go about terrorising innocent people. Why should the MDC be part of a government which reward people who have tortured, raped and even killed innocent Zimbabweans?
It has been reported that these Zanu PF youths are registered as full time government employees entitled to US$100 every month. Youth Development, Indegenisation and Development Minister, Saviour Kasukuwere told parliament that 9 000 Zanu Pf youths were benefiting from the government programme.
But other sources say the figure is not less that 15 000.
Zimbabweans should say NO to this waste of scarce government funds. People who are not doing any work should not be paid. This is the same practice which destroyed the country under the Zanu Pf government and it should be stopped.
What do you think about the government spending money of the Zanu Pf youths? Feel free to leave you comment.

Hey Kojak…..
What frightens me about this whole ”border gezi” stuff is that 15000 mentally destroyed young Zimbabweans are going to unleashed onto the people…..they wont have jobs or money and these people are very good at beating and killing anyone even their own mothers….
They wont have the ”status” symbol of being ”border gezi” and feared by one and all any more…..
These guys need help and mental treatment in a big way they can’t just be ditched as they will go on the rampage
@Sdudla….thanks for sharing your views, well said. Robert Mugabe in his times of desperation created these monsters, or rather destroyed these youngsters lives by turning them into killing machines and thugs.
Yes, they need help, but the way Zanu Pf has done it I don’t think is the best way especially for a cash-strapped government like the Zimbabwean government.
These guys are not government employees and thus should not be paid by the government.
Now the the whole country has to suffer for the problem Mugabe created, Sad!
