It’s illegal to campaign today…but that doesn’t stop zanu
The vote is actually under way now, and therefore imagine my surprise when I received a phone call a few minutes ago from none other than Joshua Malinga the ZANU-PF candidate for Bulawayo East constituency. I hasten to add that I don’t know the gentleman personally. What, I asked myself, could the candidate want to speak to me about ? A wrong number perhaps ? But no, Mr Malinga just wanted to ask me to go out and vote for him. I ask you ! He must have got my number from the telephone directory.
Never mind that it’s illegal for the candidates to campaign on the day – how desperate must Mr Malinga, and ZANU-PF, be to organize a phone around.
I paused, laughed and said “you must be joking !”
My vote for the MDC’s Welshman Ncube.
