Critics have called it a stunt to invite sympathy. Yet Amuriat says campaigning without shoes is a protest and that those who do not get its symbolism are missing a point.
Uganda is due to hold a general election on January 14. Amuriat and another opposition candidate, Bobi Wine have had their rallies violently dispersed by security forces or been arrested.
In mid-November, scores of people were killed as security forces attempted to quell protests against the arrest and detention of Bobi Wine.
Police has accused the candidates of addressing huge gatherings in contravention of regulations on COVID-19 prevention.
Swollen feet
In an interview with one of the dailies in Uganda, Amuriat said his feet hurt a lot and has to pour cold water on them in between campaign stops for some relief.
Doctors have cautioned him on the potential danger of contracting tetanus from cuts to his feet.
Yet Amuriat remains adamant. He says by refusing to wear shoes, he’s standing in solidarity with people whose wealth and opportunities have been stolen by the country’s longtime ruler Yoweri Museveni.

BY DESMOND CHINGARANDE PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa has pleaded with senior doctors to act in the national interest and return to work, warning their industrial action, coming in the midst of a COVID-29 pandemic would come at a cost to the country. Mnangagwa said the doctors should exhibit a sense of responsibility while government looks into their concerns. He made the plea at the National Heroes Acre in Harare yesterday while addressing mourners at the burial of Agriculture minister Perrance Shiri who succumbed to COVID-19. Shiri died early Wednesday in his vehicle while trying to seek medical attention after he failed to get help at a Highlands clinic due to the strike by doctors and nurses over poor salaries. In his address, Mnangagwa said the global pandemic was decimating the population and if people fail to heed regulations of controlling its spread, they will perish. “I call for our medical staff to act in the national interest and exhibit a sense of responsibility,” Mnangagwa said. “My government has always listened to your concerns. We will continue to address all your problems but this cannot be enjoyed through loss of lives.” Senior doctors declared a strike on Thursday demanding United States dollar salaries and personal protective equipment to be able to respond to COVID-19. The doctors joined nurses who have been on strike for the past six weeks. Ironically, Mnangagwa’s call for the medical staff to go back to work comes at a time his government has been pampering soldiers, police and central intelligence officers with huge perks, ignoring nurses, doctors, teachers and other government workers. The strike has crippled the country’s healthcare system. For six weeks, government has not made any meaningful effort to end the strike, but pampered security personnel used to suppress dissent over the Zanu PF rule. “When the pandemic spreads tinopera tose (we will all perish), we must stop the scourge of COVID-19 as it spares no one great or small. Through unity and discipline we stand a chance to reduce it,” Mnangagwa said. Zimbabwe has recorded 53 deaths out of 3 092 infections. Some of the prominent people that succumbed to the virus include Zimbabwe Defence Forces spokesperson Overson Mugwisi, journalist Zororo Makamba, former AgriBank boss Somkhosi Malaba, among others. Turning to Shiri, Mnangagwa described him as a unifier, saying after coming from the war, he went on to the areas he operated during the war and built schools and agricultural infrastructure. “Shiri, a fearless fighter; did a lot for us and knew the meaning of war, the value of national peace. He built irrigation (schemes) and helped in securing agriculture equipment from China, Spain and Belarus. He was in the middle of organising the Agriculture ministry,” Mnangagwa said. He said Shiri was instrumental in the restoration of trust between government and former white commercial farmers by committing to compensate them after a chequered history of conflict during the fast-track land reform programme.

Businesses under Cassava Smartech have joined hands to launch a new agribusiness product which the group says will improve agricultural production in the country. Steward Bank is partnering with EcoCash, EcoSure, Vaya, Moovah and EcoFarmer to offer AgroFuture which would offer tailor made solutions to specific needs of the agriculture value chain. “Agriculture and food security are at the core of basic survival for the general populace across the country, hence support of agribusiness activities will certainly have a great economic and social impact,” Steward Bank chief executive, Courage Mashavave said in announcing the product. “Our product will offer solutions focused on enhancing agricultural production by providing access to finance and key innovations to farmers, rural agro-dealers, aggregators and manufacturing companies,” he said The agricultural sector in Zimbabwe employs and provides income for close to 70 percent of the country’s population. It also supplies about 60 percent of the raw materials required by the manufacturing industry. However, production in the sector has declined over the past few years due to poor farming methods, lack of information and research, changing weather patterns and inadequate financing, among other things. This has seen the country spending hundreds of millions of dollars in food and agriculture-related imports annually. Mashavave said Steward Bank had made external, strategic partnerships with the Food and Agriculture Organisation, the United States Development Finance Corporation and the International Finance Corporation to provide comprehensive and holistic solutions that leverage technology to deliver value in agriculture for the country. “AgroFuture reaffirms Steward Bank’s position as the everyday bank for everyday people, as the package has solutions for all stages of the farming process, from preparations, production to selling of the product,” he said, adding that some of the solutions Steward Bank clients should look out for include Agric Mobile, an instant account-opening service that comes with instant mobile credit, as well as Smart Insure – guaranteeing insurance cover against any loss or damage to crops, livestock and equipment. He said AgroFuture would also offer Smart Tooling Support, consisting of short-term loans to support financing of smart tools such as agriculture-focused drones, soil testing kits, drip irrigation control systems and GPS technology. It will also offer Agric Advisory Services, such as corporate finance solutions for the agriculture sector, capital-raising, mergers and acquisitions, valuations and due diligence services. In addition, AgroFuture would offer financing of the Re-Imagine Rural initiative which seeks to address the financial needs of rural and marginalised agri-based communities across the country.
