A critique of MDC-T President Morgan Tsvangirai, Melusi Tangweni has claimed that the former labour movement leader is not a solution to Zimbabwe's problems but constituted the problems.
He said he was so glad that in the last few weeks more and more people have realised what I found out in 2005 that Morgan was part of the problem and not the solution.
"Morgan was a very important cog in the gears of the democratic movement vehicle that brought democratic awareness to the people of Zimbabwe, thanks to his popularity by virtue of his secretariat to the ZCTU," he said.
"He was the perfect face of the movement, but truth be told he has long out lived his purpose. Morgan knows nothing more than activism, and at this stage we need much more than that. We need a person with enough political clout to stand pound for pound with the oppressors. Someone who is decisive and quick to act. A tough negotiator with a long concentration span ,who is highly principled and wont attract trash to their name."
Tangweni said even though Tsvangirai is a power hungry megalomania who is clueless of his responsibilities as a presidential candidate , all the blame should not fall on him as there are millions of Zimbabweans who are holding him up that pedestal the same way Mugabe also has millions holding him up a pedestal.
"The time to break those pedestals is now. Lets reclaim our lives. Hero worshiping must fall. Lets not support individuals lets support great ideologies," he said.
