Nelson Chamisa not leadership material

People have expressed their disappointment in MDC T leader, Nelson Chamisa, saying that he is still politically immature and a cry baby.

This follows a statement that he made on electoral reforms before the SADC Electoral Advisory Council displaying a complete lack of leadership qualities.

"The irony of it though is you are sceptical to meet with President Emmerson Mnangagwa who is advocating for a meeting with all political parties to discuss the forthcoming elections yet you make noise about electoral reforms, a subject that can be freely discussed on that platform," Rillib Dowora said.

Dowora rubbished Chamisa's assumption that the people who support him on Twitter translate to votes on the ground. He said that some of them were not even registered to vote, or were living in the diaspora, as such; he should stop making noise about elections being rigged.  

"Other political parties are quietly taking people by hand to register to vote, they then spoil them with full packages of campaign hand-outs.  You are relying on the noise that makes your name popular without materialising in actual votes. The worst rigger in this country is people who don't register to vote," she said.

Bevan Musoko posted on Chamisa's Twitter thread after MDC-T's meeting the SADC EAC saying, "Did you also tell the SADC EAC to call for the removal of ZIDERA which you called for against the people whom you expect to vote for you, its existence shall be your undoing."

Meanwhile, President Mnangagwa has plans to invite all the political parties for a dialogue, and MDC T has since indicated that it preferred to have a special invitation.
