Tsvangirai concentrate on MDC-T, leave ZANU-PF affairs
By Peacemaker Zano
It is disheartening to note that the embattled MDC-T leader, Morgan Tsvangirai, seems to be worried and more concerned with ZANU-PF political affairs, leaving behind his party problems. Tsvangirai who is running out of ideas for the prosperity of his party has showed that he has dismally failed politically.
There is no doubt in my mind that President Mugabe has the final say on matters pertaining to the succession debate. It is up to him to decide whether he intends to make himself available for the party presidency or appoints a successor. For that reason, Tsvangirai should stop impinging on ZANU-PF matters as if he is done with his party crisis.
While addressing a handful congregation at a rally at Ziko in Seke near Chitungwiza, Tsvangirai articulated that President Mugabe should resign and appoint a successor. "As long as Mugabe is there as the President and at 90, no one was going to invest in the country. He should even pass the baton to Mujuru or Mnangagwa," he claimed.
Contrary to Tsvangirai sentiments, with age the President is getting wiser and magnanimous, which are virtues worth emulating by all. Rather than labour Zimbabweans with irresponsible and mundane rhetoric, Tsvangirai should leave the people's President to seize himself with State matters, including addressing economic decline for which Tsvangirai and his acolytes are responsible.
Tsvangirai's utterances at the rally proved that he is incompetent to lead his party, let alone this great nation. It is such statements from pretenders to the throne that chase away voters.
Remember that Tsvangirai once received full support from grass root structures and external structures, but this time the tables have turned against him. The number of people that attended Tsvangirai's rally fully explains for itself that this man has lost his grassroot support. Next time he says "we", people will be perplexed because he now stands alone.
Recently, 60 Manicaland provincial and district women's assembly executive members dumped Tsvangirai and joined the former MDC-T secretary-general Tendai Biti's Renewal Team.
Tsvangirai should plan about his party congress and stop interfering with ZANU-PF affairs. What Tsvangirai must know is that his policies are not ZANU-PF policies, hence he should mind his own business and live ZANU-PF and its leaders to run the country.
He should stop looking at the speck of sawdust in ZANU-PF's eye and start paying attention to the forest of logs hindering his own vision. At he accused President Mugabe of sponsoring factionalism in MDC-T, yet all along it has always been him meddling in the activities of President Mugabe and ZANU-PF.
It is actually sad to note that, Tsvangirai cannot even resolve the problems that are at his home and in his party. I understand Tsvangirai has wives that are waiting for funds to settle rental arrears while on the other hand he is failing to raise money for his party's congress.
It's true that, charity begins at home. Tsvangirai should put his house in order first before jumping the ship to other political party affairs. I believe ZANU-PF is brave enough to handle its disputes, if there are any.
