He talks about his experiences in the country, Murambatsvina, the failure of the international community to protect the Zimbabwean people, the elections of 2008 and the likelihood of the old guard accepting a loss in elections planned for 2011. In Callback on Friday George Makoni from the Youth Alliance for Democracy tells Tererai how the youth are being used to intimidate and influence others in the Constitutional outreach meetings, and how the young have become apathetic towards political processes. He also talks about some of the ZANU-PF views being forced upon the youth at Constitutional outreach meetings. In Letter from Zimbabwe, author Cathy Buckle writes: "Zimbabweans have become very adept at 'making a plan' to cope with nonexistent municipal services and then living in the safety-bubble created around their own homes - thereby absolving the municipalities from doing the jobs we pay them to do".
