A political commentator Allan Wenyika has accused MDC-T President Morgan Tsvangirai of behaving the same as war veterans by thinking that he is entitled to lead the party for ever just because he was bashed by the police for it.
He said the war veterans also think that they are entitled to do what ever they want in the country just because they went to war.
"MDC-T leader, Morgan Richard Tsvangirai, feels he is entitled to the party presidency by virtue of having had his head bashed and shaved by the CIO hooligans," he said. "How is he different from those war vets and the so-called national heroes who think they're superior to everyone just because they went to war and others didn't? We create our own dictators by allowing the politics of entitlement to supersede democratic conduct from our leaders."
Wenyika said Tsvangirai now feels he owns the revolution.
"As much as he was brave enough to confront the regime head on at some point in his political career, nothing makes him more Zimbabwean than Allan Wenyika," he said.
