South Africa and Zimbabwe to
Merge into one country!!
On FEBRUARY 9, 2016
South Africa and Zimbabwe have
elevated bilateral relations with
the signing on Tuesday of two
major agreements set to benefit
both countries when South
African President Jacob Zuma
met with his Zimbabwean
counterpart, Robert Mugabe, on
Tuesday at the Union Buildings.
Mugabe is on his third state visit
to South Africa since 1994.
The agreements signed were:
a merger agreement to be led
by the two heads of state; This
means South Africa and
Zimbabwe would be ONE
country.
an agreement on mutual
assistance between customs
administrations, which will see
the removal of the border
post;
Addressing the large media
contingent, Jacob Zuma
announced that the merger
between the two countries came
after years of planning and
negotiations and was initiated
when Thabo Mbeki was still in
office.
In wanting to keep everyone else
involved in the matter, the two
heads of states agreed that the
public should vote on the name
to be given to the joined
countries. This shall be done in
due course.
The current government and
ministerial posts will also be
dissolved pending the general
elections.
President Jacob Zuma agreed to
be prime minister while
President Robert Mugabe to take
control of the new country.
The Nkandla residence was pin
pointed to be the official
residence of the president
because of the sophisticated
security features it boasts. Prime
Minister Zuma has agreed to
vacate the homestead by October
of this year with President
Mugabe indicating that he would
move in early next year.
From our investigations, it seems
like the persons who will be hard
hit by this decision will be the
border officials at Beitbridge
Border post since the border will
now cease to exist.
One official who refused to be
named said “This merge
between Zimbabwe and South
Africa is horrible for our
livelihood. How are we going to
afford Chicken Slice or Nandos
for that matter. It’s horrible”
Major stake holders in Zimbabwe
and South Africa both welcomed
the decision and called it “the
best decision Africa has made”.
In closing remarks, President
Jacob Zuma said “The door is still
open for our neighbouring
countries here in Southern Africa
to join this merge. Who knows,
the whole of Africa might be one
country one day”
President Mugabe could not be
reached for a comment at the
time of writing this satirical
piece.
