Neighboring South Africa's governing party , the ANC concluded it's controversial elective congress in which cornered President Mr Cyril Ramaphosa won a controversial second term .
However, to the chagrin of most Zimbabweans has been the newly elected ANC secretary general Mr Fikile Mbalule statement that , as ANC, Fikile Mbalula said the party does not subscribe "to the idea of regime change in Zimbabwe ".
Mbalula said the ANC would intensify assisting neighbouring Zimbabwe to recover from decades of economic downturn and massive brain drain.
“We must be very much concerned about what is happening in Zimbabwe, and what role we need to play. We do not subscribe to the idea of regime change in Zimbabwe. We need to campaign very hard to get things right, because Zimbabweans are coming to our country in their numbers."
The world over , the privilege of effecting regime change in an county #Zimbabwe in particular is the sole privilege people in that nation.
In that case no nation must push for or against regime change in an nation as that would tantamount to interference to the internal affairs of a sovereign nation.
In this case , #Zimbabweans not any foreigner have the prerogative to effect regime change.
Zimbabwe being a sovereign nation and not an appendage of of South Africa means that . "We as Zimbabweans in our diversity return the right to effect or refuse regime change based on our preferences.
The statement by Mr Mbalula is tantamount to interference and against the best practice of non interference in other countries internal affairs.
Is Regime Change bad
Since the birth of multi party democracy around the world , regimes have been changed with new ones coming on board. The case Zambia , the case of Malawi speaks volumes to regime change.
Regime Change being a privilege of citizens , means that it can't be stopped by a foreigner.
Over the years it has proved that changing regimes is healthier as political parties who do not work to transform the lives of people whom they are governing are changed. Those that' are brought can also be changed if they don't fulfil their promises .
For Mr Mbalula to allege that they do not subscribe to regime change in Zimbabwe is very much wrong on many fronts .
