Nelson Chamisa the leader of the opposition MDC has said that a Zimbabwe without gender inequality is achievable.
He posted on microblogging site, Twitter on Sunday which is a Women’s Day and said:
To all the women out there, this day is for you. Happy Women’s Day. Stand loud and proud to be the woman you are. Today we celebrate you mothers, sisters, wives &daughters across the world who daily strive to beat the odds in a world where injustice & inequality continue to exist.
Women are the strength of any nation, being inexhaustible reservoirs of peace,love& happiness. When women succeed, a nation succeeds. We must all put our money where our mouth is. The future is equal. The future is now! A better Zimbabwe is possible because #iamgenerationequality
African states, particularly Zimbabwe, have since the attainment of independence expressed the interest to move from patriarchal systems of governance to more egalitarian ones. This can be seen by legislations enacted to enhance women inclusion in all sectors.
Observers, however, assert that inclusion is only on paper as women are still excluded, for instance, from the political and economic arenas.
