1/TODAY IS WORKERS DAY…A moment to thank all the workers who make the wheels of nations turn and the economies of the world tick. We stand in solidarity with the suffering workers of Zimbabwe as the World commemorates the May Day today.

2/Zimbabwe is a country without work for many. Even for those with jobs, life is unbearable. The Zimbabwean workers have been resilient under deadening poverty and very difficult circumstances. Yet, we have rampant corruption and flaunting of wealth by the corrupt few.

3/Workers have been plunged into slavery. Many workers are earning extremely low wages rendering them working poor, basically putting them in the poverty bracket. Our teachers and nurses are suffering. The civil servants are struggling. Workers in general are without a decent living wage. University lecturers who are currently on strike, are earning a paltry salary, an embarrassing $228 per month.

4/Many workers have lost their pensions and face a difficult retirement future. Zimbabwean workers literally live, work and retire in poverty.

5/Due to high unemployment and lack of government protection, many workers are stripped of their rights and freedoms. The majority are also in survivalist informal employment without social security , income security or other labour rights.

6/The level of poverty in the working class has driven many professionals to seek better opportunities outside the country.

7/That is draining the country of skiled and experienced professionals .Without experienced professionals and artisans we can not have economic recovery.

8/The Next Government-our new government will focus on restoring the dignity of workers and the strengthening of genuine social dialogue as a means of addressing the multiple problems that workers are facing.

9/We will prioritise rebuilding the economy and public services in order to create employment opportunities for the many unemployed young Zimbabweans.

10/We will end casualisation of jobs and stop job losses and retrenchments.

11/Labour laws and practices shall be reformed in order to strengthen protection of freedom of association , expression and collective bargaining.

12/Workers' pensions shall be protected from economic mismanagement and workers must be compensated fully for the past pension savings loses. Social safety nets will be granted and guaranteed.

13/There shall be a vigorous fight against corruption that is robbing the poor workers and benefiting a few. This country has sufficient resources and potential to provide decent wages and working conditions for our suffering workers.Workers will be the happiest under the coming new government.

14/As you know, every citizen is a worker. May all workers around Zimbabwe and the world have fruitful commemorations. Workers of the world, unite!

Salute to you all the workers. Forever and always ~nc

If you don't agree, then you're either benefiting from the crimes happening in our country under Mnangagwe's and his cabinet's watch, or you're completely blind. Those who fought on the four fronts and died on the battlefield are the real heroes; they died for our nation's freedom. Unless we agree that we must rescue our nation from Mnangagwe before he completely destroys it, we're disrespecting those who fought for our freedom. It's our time now - the 80s, 90s, and 2000s - to do something for our nation, united. Let's show him we don't need him anymore.

ZiG Sinks Economy As More Shops Close

By Business Reporter:

The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) was forced to issue a public relations statement on Wednesday after reports emerged of a resurgent black market for foreign currency.

This follows the widespread rejection of the Zimbabwe Gold (ZiG) currency by businesses, with many shops refusing to accept it for transactions.

Introduced in April last year, ZiG was meant to stabilise the economy and curb inflation.

However, it rapidly lost value within two weeks of its launch, raising concerns about the government’s failure to implement sound monetary policies.

Despite this, authorities mandated businesses to accept ZiG, even as the government itself continued to require foreign currency for essential services such as fuel and passport fees.

Zimbabwe’s economic troubles are deeply rooted in years of policy mismanagement, corruption, and lack of investor confidence.

The country’s history of monetary instability dates back to the early 2000s, culminating in the infamous hyperinflation crisis of 2008, when inflation reached an estimated 89.7 sextillion percent (Hanke, 2008).

During this period, the Zimbabwean dollar became worthless, forcing the government to abandon it in favour of a multi-currency system dominated by the US dollar.

However, in recent years, authorities have attempted to reintroduce a local currency, first with the RTGS dollar in 2019 and now with ZiG.

These efforts have largely failed due to weak economic fundamentals, a lack of public confidence, and an absence ofcredible policies to support the currency.

The government’s insistence on using ZiG while continuing to demand foreign currency for critical services has further eroded trust in the financial system.

The rejection of ZiG by businesses has had severe consequences, with many shops shutting down as they struggle to restock goods.

Retailers rely on foreign currency to import products, but with customers hesitant to use ZiG and black-market exchange rates soaring, businesses face insurmountable losses.

In response to the growing crisis, RBZ Governor John Mushayavanhu released a statement on Wednesday, 12 March, clarifying that only banks participating in the interbank market are authorised to set exchange rates.

He warned that no other businesses or entities should establish their own rates, stating:

“The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe has taken note of the confusion regarding the exchange rate determination for pricing of goods and services following the pronouncement of the Monetary Policy Statement (MPS) on 6 February 2025. It is important to highlight that the country is operating under a Floating Exchange Rate system where the exchange rate is determined in the interbank market for foreign exchange under the Willing-Buyer Willing-Seller (WBWS) arrangement.”

Mushayavanhu also reiterated that banks are free to sell foreign currency acquired from the RBZ at rates that align with international standards.

However, the reality on the ground suggests that the formal banking sector is struggling to meet the foreign currency demands of businesses, forcing many to turn to the parallel market for survival.

The re-emergence of the black market and shop closures highlight the ongoing failure of the government to implement sustainable economic policies.

Instead of addressing the root causes of currency instability—such as low production, excessive money printing, and lack of investor confidence—the authorities continue to rely on short-term measures that only deepen the crisis.

For Zimbabwe’s economy to recover, there is an urgent need for comprehensive economic reforms, including:

Restoring confidence in the financial system – The government must demonstrate fiscal discipline and ensure that any local currency introduced is backed by strong economic fundamentals.
Liberalising the foreign exchange market – Businesses should have unrestricted access to foreign currency at competitive rates rather than being forced to rely on an inefficient and manipulated interbank system.
Encouraging investment and production – A shift towards export-led growth and industrial revival is essential to stabilise the currency and reduce reliance on imports.
Until these structural issues are addressed, Zimbabwe is likely to remain trapped in a cycle of economic instability, with businesses and ordinary citizens bearing the brunt of policy failures.
