Richard Chakwizira, Former Zimbabwe Partnership for Prosperity (ZIPP) National Chairman
A member of Zimbabwe Partnership for Prosperity (ZIPP), Richard Chakwizira has been fired from his duties as the national chairman.
This follows an article published on Bulawayo24.com on April 22 about Chakwizira failing to send his son for A'levels.
Chakwizira, who has admits that the Bulawayo24.com article was true, claims that his position as national chairman was terminated on Sunday after the party had conducted some investigations on who might have leaked the story to the media.
Read Chakwizira's full statement below:
One fired member/ partner once said "ZANU PF is going to be replaced by theocracy and party controlled by MDC-t fired political prostitutes who calls the shots by endorsing their favourite candidates." I want to agree with him.
I believe as a person called by the Holy Spirit I performed my duties very well despite what the party is talking about. I also believe that everything in ZIPP is controlled by this spirit. Today I received a letter to terminate my position as National Chairman of the party.
From the beginning I was told I was joining a Godly ordained party and should not worry about political experience for it was the choice of the Holy Spirit. I had questions about my position given to me after the inauguration on the 16th Dec 2016. But after prayers conducted their Chaplin General in Mash East Mhondoro rural and in Mash Central Chiweshe I was convinced to accept the Chairman's position. Also prayers forcing me to speak in tongues which I did convinced Blessing Kasiyamhuru the party president that I was the chosen one.
Since I was obedient to the Holy Spirit I am actually surprised when they talk about non-performance of my duties.
If there is anything I hate it is lying. In paragraph 1 they are absolutely lying. Maybe they must consult the spirit for the truth. I did everything the best I could considering that I did not have political background neither qualified for the position.
On paragraph 2 they are also lying. The day I met Blessing he promised a lot and told me not to worry about anything everything I needed was going to be provided fo and this included school fees for my children. He actually regarded my concerns as a small matter as God was in control, he was going to assist.
He started by buying me a laptop,
and replaced my passport which had been stolen two weeks before I
received the great calling. How then could I have doubted God and man
who had not only replaced the stolen items but also paid for my air
tickets, food and accommodation. Without short of a doubt I knew that
all things were possible.
They are talking rubbish when they say I desperately pushed for a remuneration, rather it was the other executives who used my position to push for that agenda. I saw nothing wrong in their attitude towards money issues because their concerns were genuine.
My failure to pay for my children's fees is as a result of lies from Blessing. The last time I reminded the party about my issue I was viewed as a freeloader and someone who wanted to milk the party in its infant stage. A big talk about the president funding the party from his pocket and wife managing the account stopped me from further requests. It is very true that since the opening of ZIPP account early this year there has never been money in that account. It is now common knowledge to party members that the treasurer general is the president's wife who is on the party brochure now carrying a different surname to hide from the majority that she controls party funds. One can imagine how difficult it has been for me to ask for assistance from bedroom discussed budgets. Although my wife and I had given the wife a budget of about $600 on one child for boarding school, nothing came apart from $170. The hypocrisy was revealed to me when the president bought a big car for the vice president and another for the youth president. Not only that but he is also building a house in Bylaws to for the Chaplin General as well as assisting his child with university fees. Now speculations are that the president has fallen prey and bought a flat for the young lady youth president who was fired from MDC-t after campaigning for Themba Mliswa. So while others were benefiting the National Chairman was and still struggling to send children to school.
There was a time I wanted to find out really why I could not be assisted. Blessing openly told me that the Holy Spirit had refused to assist me. Since that day I knew my children were not going to school. On this day their National Spokesperson was there sympathizing with the president saying I must have faith that things will work out. So they must stop lying and using God's word to abuse and manipulate innocent people.
The article that came in the Bulawayo24 media is very true and their party has spent two weeks deliberating on who exactly sent the story to the media. I thought they are concerned about the future of my children instead they worry more about concerns of a selected few. I believe the decision to terminate my position was done immediately after the article exposed them. The party president wrote to the NEC suggesting that I should excused from the party to sort out my personal problems. So I am not really surprised about the decision for most guys in the committee are scared to challenge the president.
Paragraph 3 is full of nonsense. How can I not have faith in the word that called me to be ZIPP National Chairman. I have never judged Blessing's spiritual status neither did I say he is demon possessed and ZIPP is satanic.
The only spirit I challenged and I still continue to challenge is when he said in shona " manje daddy muchaita sei mweya waramba kuti ndikupei mari".
It is funny that I am now considered as someone not sharing their vision because I have challenged the diabolical spirit. My question is if God gave Blessing Kasiyamhuru a vision to answer the cries of many Zimbabweans, am I not one of those pleading with the Holy Spirit to hear my humble cry? If he could afford air tickets, accommodation and food not only for me but for most in the executive chambers how did he then fail to honour his promise to me.
What prosperity are my children going to talk about? What posterity is there for them? To those who want to join ZIPP please go ahead I did but was used and dumped like a chewing gum that has lost its sweetness. There is a lot of hypocrisy in this so called Godly ordained party.
Zimbabwe need a party with people at heart not these theocratic ideas. I wish ZIPP leaders would start paying attention to Holy Spirit than any other spirits.
