So now we have This Flag campaign. It has become so successful that Ministers in the Junta are waiting in car Parks late at night to threaten Pastors. As minister of IT he threatened to remove the said Pastor from Twitter….. #THINGSTHATSHOULDSHOCKSUPA……. Twitter is not owned by the Junta comrade.

#THINGSTHATSHOULDSHOCKSUPA……. You are much better at selling cranes than being a minister.

Where have you ever heard of such despicable tactics? Oh in Zimbabwe, done by the Junta on a daily basis.

Another minister on his Twitter account- I thought Junta had banned their members from social media?- says the entire movement is sponsored by the West. What exactly was sponsored? A cellphone, Facebook and maybe data bundles??? As educated as you are, surely you should know that a cellphone can take videos, they are uploaded and shared on social media. Are you that ignorant that you cant understand that as Zimbabweans we actually can see for ourselves that you have messed up the entire country and the only solution left is for you to leave office?

What we have seen is the power of just one person, backed up by the vision and the courage to follow through. Imagine if there were 2 such people? Imagine 10? What about 100? 10000?

This is the time for everyone out there to stand up. We now need to speak out. Wherever you are in this world, Diaspora, at home, whether you are young, old, whether you want to go back to Zim or not, whether you're born to Zim parents who don't live there anymore, if you have just an ounce of Zimbabwe Blood in you, STAND UP. Tell everyone in your circle of influence, use social media, visit government departments of other countries and tell them we have an illegal Junta raping our country.

This is just one initiative. Done by an ordinary person. Its time we combine these efforts to form one big Initiative. Our opposition parties don't seem too keen to form a coalition, maybe we the people should show them the way and form our own coalition, led by just normal people, who actually have the interests of Zimbabwe at heart, and not these "Permanent interests" that politicians keep telling us about.

It doesn't need a bolt of lightening to realize that as 20 or so different opposition parties entering the same presidential race, all fielding different candidates in the 210 constituencies, the Junta stand to benefit the most. It is absolutely vital for some form of coalition to be formed going into 2018.

These are interesting times indeed, where we have a lot of new activists standing up and being counted. The church has a massive base, mostly made up of decent morally upright people, who would make great presidents, ministers and Directors of Parastatals.

One thing is for certain, if the opposition parties don't form a coalition, there will be a massive gap in the politics of Zimbabwe, which will be easily filled by a coalition of activists, people who don't have dirty records, compromised histories and massive amounts of baggage. Be warned, Politicians are now on borrowed time. Activists find each other and form the very thing that we are all talking about. A united front against the Junta.
