MDC-T President Morgan Tsvangirai "must give a state of his bedroom address" and stop dreaming of a second unity government, Zanu-PF politburo member and Information Minister Professor Jonathan Moyo said last night.
Professor Moyo told the government controlled Chronicle that Tsvangirai "said a lot of things which are far removed from reality, including that Zanu-PF needs his party to run government and turn around the economy, or alternatively that there must be an election now."
"The main points of his purported state of nation address were two-fold: one, that his party should come back into government ostensibly because Zanu-PF needs it, and two if Zanu-PF doesn't agree it needs his party there should be election now," said Prof Moyo.
"These two things can't be the state of the nation by any stretch of the nation. You can only give an address about something you are pre-occupied with and thinking about every day, exercising your mind and being seen to be hands on with it.
"Clearly, Tsvangirai has not been hands on with national affairs, he can't give a State of the Nation address, but he can give a state of his bedroom address. We would all be ears, with the goings on there it seems more fascinating."
Tsvangirai's wife, Elizabeth Macheka, recently walked out on him barely six months after their wedding. She said Tsvangirai could not "get it up", and accused him of trying to marry his late wife's sister.
"With all the dysfunctional things around him, let Tsvangirai give a state of his bedroom address, but let him not pretend to be giving a State of the Nation. There is a big difference between the state and his bedroom," Prof Moyo added.
Tsvangirai spoke to supporters and diplomats at a Harare hotel last Friday in what his party dubbed a "State of the Nation Address".
He claimed that "the current parlous state of the economy is the true result of that stolen election", before going on to state that "the solution is unconditional dialogue".
