80% of the commercial white farmers purchased the farmland post-independence the original white settlers could see the writing on the wall for their future in Zimbabwe. These commercial farmers invested in Zimbabwe on the belief that Zimbabwe was to be a multi-cultural and racial equality was to exist.
Now we have the same argument being pursued again by Zanu-PF and Mugabe these are white settlers who stole the businesses from the blacks. Nonsense of course but it is popular amongst local Zimbabweans for the short term. When investment dries up and it will of course it won't be Mugabe and Zanu-PF it will be sanctions and MDC-T at fault.
