Comments:
The situation in Zimbabwe which was the bread basket of Southern Africa has deteriorated; humanitarian situation in the country is compromised at the expense of all citizens. The country has been facing serious socio-economic decline compounded by the almost two-month stalemate after the 29 March 2008 harmonised elections. The declining situation has once again resulted in poor agricultural production and reduced manufacturing capacity. The shortage of basic food commodities and unpredictable rainfall patterns has threatened the food security of millions of people in the country.
