Opposition representatives in South Africa say their members have donated money to transport thousands of voters back to Zimbabwe to assist with that goal.
“What we normally do with our members who go back, we induct them in terms of how they should conduct themselves whilst they are in Zimbabwe," explained Khumbulani Moyo, a South Africa-based opposition leader, "and making sure that they don’t do what is not according to the laws of Zimbabwe. Their main objective is to go and cast their vote to make sure that there is a democratic change Zimbabwe.”
Opposition voter Lizwe Gwebu said he’s thrilled at the prospect of change.
“I’m very excited, I’m going back home to cast my vote on the 31st of July,” Gwebu said enthusiastically.
University of Johannesburg student Andrew Gotora has a Zimbabwean presidential scholarship.
“Obviously, at times you get worried that what if the current government doesn’t win the elections," Gotora admitted, "what will the future for us hold as the students since we signed the contract under the ZANU-PF government.”
No matter whom they vote for, these Zimbabweans living abroad say they want democracy, even if they have to travel long distances to get it.
