By Wesley Macheso First, you must build a tombstone so huge that it costs K2.7 billion . Those who think that amount is too ridiculous for a place of death don’t know what they are talking about.
Call that tombstone a mausoleum or any other fancy English name whose inscrutability can justify lavish and reckless expenditure of taxpayers’ money. That thing has to be grand for under it will be buried over 20 million people, together with their dreams and any aspiration they had for future generations. When they realise that, they will get the sense of it.
I said this before, and I will repeat it a million times if need be: don’t mind any naysayers trying to distract you from this project. After all, this will not be the first burial site in this godforsaken country. Leaders before you have buried them before.
Isn’t it how your kind survives–by finding ways of siphoning as much money as possible from them so that they come to their knees, crawling before your eminence, begging? This is how you maintain power by keeping them poor so that they remain servile–tied to the leash of your grace. You must choose poverty for them so that they admire and revere your polished face when you show up to appreciate how hunger is devastating their communities. By spending K2.
7 billion on a graveyard, some may think that you have forgotten that the country is facing a threat of hunger following the drought and floods last year. Nature has jokes, doesn’t it? Drought and floods in the.
