Answer:
After Independence, the country has been
ruled by ZANU-PF, the part that led the freedom struggle. Its leader Mugabe had
been ruling since Independence. Elections have been held regularly and always
won by ZANU- PF. President Mugabe is popular but also uses unfair practices in
elections. Over the years, his government has changed the constitution several
times to increase the powers of the President and make him less accountable. Opposition
party workers are harassed and their meetings disrupted. Public protests and
demonstrations against the government are declared illegal. There is a law that
limits the right to criticise the President. Television and radio are
controlled by the government and give only the ruling party's version. There
are independent newspapers but the government harasses those journalists who go
against it. The government has ignored some court judgements that went against
it and has pressurised judges.
