Food and transport has been unstinting and in the process they have hired hundreds of buses, trains and trucks of every description. I heard they brought in 140 tonnes of poster paper and you can see that everywhere. A very young Mugabe peers out to us from every tree and lamp post. My wife saw one on the wall of a company and asked me who that was, I said it was Mugabe and she could not reconcile the image with the man we see every hour or so, on State TV. One other reason why the Zanu PF posters are so visible is that Zanu PF has had teams at work every night, taking down everybody else’s posters which are now almost nonexistent. Tear down a Zanu poster and you will find yourself in a Police cell and likely to remain there for some days before a Magistrate can be found to impose a fine. We have all complained to ZEC and the Police, to no avail.
