Open letter to Mnangagwa
13 Nov 2017 at 07:23hrs | Views
Hello Mr Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa, hope this letter find you in good health.
All along , why comrade you were failing to see that the party was glirding to a wrong direction?
Why telling us today and seeking sympathy from the generality of Zimbabweans who are wallowing in poverty due to under performing economy. It is because of your government which did not allow the succession issue to be tabled and give others an opportunity. Now that you have been sacked by the same government you served for more than 50 years then there is no need to ask the young people to bail you out of your problems. When you were dining and eating together with Mugabe we were not even picking the crumbles which were falling down. Hey Mr Emmerson Mnangagwa we progressive Zimbabweans don't want to be drawn into your vicious unwarranted internal fights caused by your insatiable aplomb and appetite to rule.
To show that you don't even care of the general public your letter is clearly directed to Zanu PF supporters only in a country where there are many tribes. Not even members of MDC-T, NPP, Mavambo, PDP, ZAPU etc were mentioned. If you were not booted out of the party, I would believe right now you would be enjoying yourself our taxes and hard earned bonds. I wonder why you failed to realise that you were just an unwanted element two years ago when Sarah Mahoka and Mandiitawepi Chimene undressed you before a big crowd at Shake Shake Building. You were supposed to throw the towel than to wait for such a time as this. Don't worry ask from the former South African Thabho Mbeki he was recalled by the government. So it's not something new and it shall not be the last.
Well dear comrade finish whatever you have started. There is a Shona proverb which reads "Waita chake ndihombarume" so you can stand at your own and fight the battles.
These are some of the words which you used to say and we shall always remember them for time immemorial. I quote "Kana ukabuda muZanu PF vupenyu bwako bwunovunyana seshizha rabva pamuti waro. Ramba uri mune vamwe ugofara kuti tirambe tichitonga, tichingotonga,
tigotonga.
Such kind of hate speech, inciteful language has been spewed from your foul mouth and does not have a place in a democratic country. No one should be proud of such statements from the person of your calibre as the second man in charge of a country.
You were planting seeds of division, regionalism, nepotism and finally you were being tribalistic.
You dismally failed to instill descipline amongst yourselves as leaders and again failed Zimbabwe's democratic principles. Like what the President said, go and form your own party and you are free to form it and make the disciples if your own.
Please we don't want war in the following weeks as what you are promising to do in the following weeks. I strongly believe in a dialogue. Your other former workmate left peacefully and she had not threatened any peace. If you want to keep yourself relevant you are free to join the likes of Joyce Mujuru whom you pushed out of Zanu PF so that you can take over the post and I think Dr Amai Joyce Runaida Mujuru is ready to receive you with both hands. You can also either join Dr Morgan Richard Tsvangirayi who has been in the opposition for such a long time and will share with you some few notes on how it is to fight the Mugabe regime.
Interestingly if you have supporters then good luck , they can vote for you and you can win an election resoundingly and you can be declared the next Head of State.
We don't want to extend our suffering in our beautiful country Zimbabwe We now need a new goverment which can support its people rather than this corruptive one which always think of grabbing our resources and leaving us more poorer everyday.
You have been the core of our problems and connived with the government in drafting unappealing economic policies. Millions of Zimbabweans are doled up in foreign lands not because they love being there but they ran away from unemployment, political violence and harassment.
Wish you all the best Mr Cde.
Yours truly
