It is not because people are happy with the status quo; it is not because people are cowards as suggested by some MDCT leaders; it is not that people do not want to join the demonstrations.
The answer is simple; people no longer have confidence in Tsvangirai's leadership. When the MDC won elections in 2002; 2008 and robbed in 2013, in all these elections they expected Tsvangirai and the entire MDC leadership to lead the demonstrations, particularly the 2008 and the 2013 ones.
What did Tsvangirai and the MDC do?, in 2008 Tsvangirai ran away to the Ducth embassy and finally to Botswana.
What did Tsvangirai do in 2013, he did virtually nothing, people were ready and waiting for him to tell them to go and occupy the state house, but he came out telling people to be patient portraying himself as if he was a statesman.
People have simply lost confidence in Tsvangirai's leadership and the prospects of the MDC T ever assuming power.
People will wait for a brave leader who will lead from the front and they will join that leader en masse to remove the dictator from kwaZvimba from state house.
