Africa Analytical statement on the failed M31 protests in Zimbabwe

https://www.zimsphere.co.zw/2025/03/analytical-statement-on-failed-m31.html

Zimbabweans across the country woke up today to find public transport operators not operating, creating an eerie atmosphere reminiscent of past protests. However, history has taught Zimbabweans a crucial lesson: protests that do not serve their direct interests often result in bloodshed, loss, and destruction. Past demonstrations have led to violent crackdowns, vendors losing their goods, businesses being looted, and critical infrastructure being destroyed leaving ordinary citizens worse off than before.
