\u2026 international bodies like SADC (Southern African Development Community) have acknowledged and praised the importance of POLAD.<\/p>\n

They have even gone on to encourage other countries to set up similar bodies and deal with (political) problems in their countries.<\/p>\n

The United Nations (UN) has acknowledged POLAD and they are complementing the process.<\/p>\n

We now even have the US Senate Congress engaging POLAD on issues to do with sanctions, issues to do with progress in Zimbabwe.<\/p>\n

The international community has embraced POLAD.<\/p>\n

POLAD is a dialogue platform created by President Emmerson Mnangagwa for political leaders from various fringe parties that contested in the 2018 presidential election.<\/p>\n

It has, however, been accused of draining State coffers after its 19 principals received brand-new all-terrain vehicles from the government to carry out \u201cPOLAD work\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
