Harare, Zimbabwe – For days now, Lolo Zuma, a 37-year-old mother of three, has pondered and agonised over how she will provide for her three school-going children.
“If Zimbabwe African National National Union-Patriotic Front (Zanu PF) wins, I will become a sex worker to earn a living for my three children,” Zuma told Al Jazeera as vote tabulation in the general elections was under way on Thursday. As if to underscore her commitment to her new profession, she opened a box containing hundreds of condoms she had picked up at a local clinic earlier in the day.
