Prolonged Stay In Power

One day,I stood on the mountain Watching security forces using force to disperse demonstrators Who had gathered in the commercial capital___ Blocked off traffic to a large part of the city: To protest against their leaders' prolonged years in power. His henchmen believe that he has kept his country, On a relatively stable economic path: But critics say at the expense of good governance. He has won several elections and secured many terms in office___ Results that opposition parties denounce as fradulent. Moreover it was a peaceful demostration. But a large number of well-armed police, Deployed by the oppressive regime : Used water cannons, teargas,and other weapons, To disperse and brutalise thousands of opposition supporters And I saw several observers and journalists, Attending the event being beaten by security personnel. And they wounded many that assembled there, They also,confiscated phones and digital cameras: From anyone shooting images of the incident, To make cover up of the worst military rule. chipepo lwele Dedicated to Muammar Gaddaffi,Ian Smith,Robert Mugabe and Bashar Al-Assad
