People's Democratic Party official Fortune Mlalazi has warned other opposition political parties with big brother mentality to swallow their pride and come together with other parties for a positive progress in democratization of the country.
MDC-T lead by Morgan Tsvangirai and the ZimPF led by former Vice President Joice Mujuru appears not interested in having a coalition with the other oppsition parties they view as small parties.
Most of the opposition parties were formed by former members of the MDC-T in which Tsvangirai recently questioned their leaders aim of breaking away from the party and later want to have a coalition with the same party they left.
But Mlalazi urged the so called big parties to swallow their pride and join others in a coalition.
"For people who got the second highest number of Senators two years after calling themselves an anti Senate group and physically breaking limbs off those who supported the Senate contest; and for people who have a history of paying US$300 000 bride price only to terminate the relationship after 12 days to find themselves in positions where they have to make comment on what makes sense and what doesn't is just but a big joke," Mlalazi said.
"Comrades, just swallow your pride and come to the Coalition. Never confuse your mistakes for strategy or divine destiny. You made your mistakes, we made ours. However the time to climb down those high horses is now."
