BY EVANS MATHANDA
PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa’s “Zimbabwe is open for business” mantra has placed the whole country “under siege” with women in mining communities the worst affected, rights activists have said.Speaking in Harare yesterday at the launch of the “Right to Say No” national campaign for women affected by extractive industries in Zimbabwe, Farai Maguwa who is the director for Centre for Natural Resources Governance, said Mnangagwa’s “open for business” mantra had done more harm than good to mining communities.
“The country is literally under siege due to the open for business mantra. Yes, Zimbabwe is said to be open for business, but how is that helping locals particularly women?” Maguwu asked.
