Answer:

A. Because the president rules the country like a dictator.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Republic of Zimbabwe was a former British colony and gained independence in 1980. Since then, Robert Mugabe was in power as prime minister first and ten as president until 2017. After social turmoil by the military force of the country, Mugabe quit the presidency and, eventually, his vice president Emmerson Mnangagwa has been in power since then. Thus, corrupt governments like in Zimbabwe and other countries occur with populist leftist movements that become democratic tyrannies, in which presidents refuse to leave power.
