A political commentator Brighton Musonza has criticized the shadow cabinet appointed by MDC-T Leader Morgan Tsvangirai last week saying the caliber of the selected members can not run even his village.
He said when he look at the latest names of the MDC Shadow cabinet or whatever they may call it; he feel dejected.
"I feel let down. I remember in the late 90s when first I took part in the formative stages of this party and prior to that; my role in the NCA and with it, all the cream de la cream of individuals opposed to Zanu PF; from labour unions, academics, student unions and us the ordinary working people," he said.
"That formative grouping had the country's best human resources mine of brilliant individuals who could undoubtedly put Zimbabwean man on the moon. The problem with Zanu PF and Robert Mugabe's style of leadership that has got our country to this is that of human resources development of people who are loyal and not those capable of doing the job."
He said this is manifesting itself in the MDC and that shadow cabinet thing can't even run his village.
"Morgan Tsvangirai must know that there is a possibility he may form the next government but surely not with those mobs around him. It's laughable! Where are the men and women who can reassure people of a better Zimbabwe under your guidance Morgan? Why have you not recruited from many of the professionals and instead you're stuck with that mediocrity simply because they are loyal and they have the founder label?" he said.
