There is a common saying which goes like "If you are in Rome you must do what the Romans at doing", it is clear that Mrs Mugabe is behaving more like South Africans especially at position of leadership.

It is not a secret that we are a very violent country. it has gone too far that even visitors adopt that bad habit of going around punching people with no reason. Mrs Mugabe opted for violence as she learnt that it is only in our country where you can punch a person without any punishment coming your way.

The PAC was disappointed with how lightly the deputy-minister's issue was handled as it encourages those with certain powers to just punch people with no consequences.

Our law-enforcement agencies have set a wrong precedence of allowing those with political network to do wrongs without accounting for their misdemeanours.

It is also disappointing that the ANC at government and party level have not said anything to sufficiently condemn all the wrong things that Manana and many of his comrades are doing when they punch women. We must first deal with the very citizen who think that they are above the law we make noise about.
