(translated below) > It’s for every citizen of Zimbabwe. I don’t go to work. I don’t support the MDC. I don’t support Zanu PF. I don’t support any party. I’m a woman that stays at home. But because I’m pained by the state of things, I came here today so that I plead [with the government]. So now I’m beaten for it, why? > I don’t work. I stay at home with my children and grandchildren. My husband died. So what do I do? If I try to sell things on the streets I’m also beaten. Everyday I try to sell tomatoes on the streets and I spend the day running from the police. So what do you want me to do? > When we come here to plead with you, you hit us. What do you want us to do? _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
