The President of Zimbabwe, Emmerson Mnangagwa, doesn’t even know if there is still a passenger train service between Zimbabwe’s capital city, Harare, and Zimbabwe’s second biggest city, Bulawayo. That is how bad and clueless his Government has become, and when I say these things here on social media, people who don’t live in Zimbabwe think that I am making it up. Imagine the President of your country not knowing if there is a passenger train between your two biggest cities, what does that mean? Sadly Zimbabwe’s main opposition doesn’t have a shadow transport minister to amplify these issues and educate citizens on why public transport is expensive for them because there are no passenger trains. In 1988 a bus ride cost $8 from Harare to Gweru, the train fare was $4 for the same distance, which means passengers could save half the fare when using passenger trains. The majority of the voters don’t know this because they were not yet born when intercity passenger trains were still moving. Citizens don’t understand the relatedness of rail services to the cost of goods in supermarkets, it requires political education which is the job of a shadow minister who would have researched on this particular brief and have the figures on their finger tips. This also applies to goods and services, the cost of a bottle of cooking oil is made more expensive because it has been transported via road instead of rail. On the primary issue, how does a country grow when the President doesn’t even know if there are passenger rail services between cities yet the same president appointed a board of directors at National Railways of Zimbabwe that is drawing perks and cars? The same president has a transport minister and permanent secretary and a whole ministry with directors and managers. I give up I tell you! It is concerning when a country's leadership is disconnected from critical issues like transportation. Lack of awareness about essential public services does indeed hinder progress and public welfare. Engaging citizens and addressing these issues through informed governance is crucial for a nation's development without which nothing will change.
