Zimbabwean government has with immediate effect directed that civil servants be awarded a cushioning allowance of between 22.7 percent and 5 percent per month on a sliding scale between January and March. But the civil servants are refusing it, saying it’s nothing. They want more than that, or to be paid in US dollars.
As it stands, Zimbabwe is under a silent state of emergency, and martial law is now in effect.
Today in Harare and some parts of the country, there was no public transport, only private cars, few shops opened but closed early. Schools are on shutdown since Monday.
The violent crackdown of workers by the military and police continues and the subsequent shutting down of the internet. Police and soldiers are moving from house to house and assaulting people in their homes.
Let's set up self-defense committees and worker's peasants militia! For rank and file soldiers committees! Long live the revolutionary general strike! For a provisional revolutionary government of workers and poor peasants, based on the struggling masses!
The liberation of the workers will be the task of workers themselves!
Down with the military dictatorship! Out with the government of Mnangagwa and ZANU-PF.
