Just recently President Mugabe just got back from one of his costly global jaunts in New York for a debate on SGDs where he took with him an entourage of no less than 20 people, gobbling up thousands of dollars. Surely if government can afford to blow $20 million in less than 6 months on President Mugabe’s wasteful and useless trips abroad, it can afford to set aside $12 000 for a worthwhile cause to bring back the women stranded in Kuwait.
It is a shock that up to now no plan whatsoever had been put in place to try and rescue these women, who are in the predicament they are in as a result of the very government’s failure to manage the economy, turning them into paupers in their own country. A government that fails to assist its citizens and ensure their safety when they are facing such grave danger is a useless one.
