'Tsvangirai was robbed with his eyes open,' says Chamisa - true, but so are you, Mr Know-It-All

"(President) Mnangagwa wants to get into office through the window abusing conditions for elections. That's why I told him that I will not accept what they used to do to Tsvangirai who was robbed with his eyes open. As long as we don't agree on the issue of ballot paper, the election will not be done," said Mr Chamisa.
"We will push until it's done. What I am saying is as long as we have not agreed on who prints the ballot paper, where it will be printed and how the security around the ballot paper will be like, there will be no election in Zimbabwe."
Well, well! So, you, Mr "Know-It-All" Nelson Chamisa saw Tsvangirai "with his eyes open" being robbed by Zanu PF all these last 17 years. You clearly did not thing to stop the robberies. The real big question here is WHY DID YOU DO NOTHING TO STOP THE ROBBERY!
The MDC leaders, not just Morgan Tsvangirai, had five years to implement the democratic reforms necessary to stop the scourge of Zanu PF rigging the elections. This was the single most important task MDC leaders have had to accomplished in the party's nearly 20 years in politics and they had the golden opportunity to get this done during the GNU. The party failed to get even one reform implemented.
We accept that Morgan Tsvangirai was breathtakingly corrupt and incompetent so much so he was robbed "with his eyes open"! But what about you Mr "Know-It-All" Chamisa why did you too fail to get even one reform implemented in five years of the GNU?
Even is Zanu PF granted you your wish to know who will print the ballot papers, etc. are you sure these concessions will be enough to guarantee free, fair and credible elections?
When it was clear that MDC had failed to get even one reform implemented at the end of the GNU SADC leaders advised that the 2013 should be postponed. "If you go into next month's elections, you will lose; the elections are done!" they warned the MDC leaders at the June 2013 SADC summit in Maputo.
MDC leaders paid no heed and, as we know, Zanu PF went on to blatantly rig the elections that year. Since not even one meaningful reform has been implemented since the July 2013 rigged elections, Zanu PF is set to blatantly rig this year's elections too.
These elections should not be going ahead without first implementing the democratic reforms, it is insane taking part in flawed and illegal elections hoping against hope to win the rigged elections, especially after 38 years of rigged elections.
It was not just Morgan Tsvangirai who was robbed with his eyes open, you and the rest of the equally corrupt and incompetent MDC leaders like Tendai Biti, Welshman Ncube, etc. were all robbed with your eyes wide open. Chamisa, you talk too much and your mouth is getting far ahead of your sluggish brain.
