Tendai Biti, we Tendai!. In 1980 PF-ZAPU felt the same way you feel today. They had lost, their loss master minded by the British and ZANU-PF. PF-ZAPU as one remembers was a national party. It united the nation, knew no tribe, colour or creed yet it was humiliated.
PF-ZAPU was then destroyed gradually. When the MDC was later formed it was viewed by all as a uniting party, that would recognize the equality of all citizen rising above tribal politics that have seen the death of both the Midlands and Matabeleland. It was not long before the MDC emulated ZANU-PF, broke into two just as it happened in 1963.
The majority tribe was now being used, but the people of those two regions not wanting to be associated with ZANU-PF hung on hoping one day Tswangirai and his team would change. During the formation of the GNU the true colours of MDC-T were displayed for all to see.
You cry Tendai yet you are one of the divisionist culprits. You watched as people of Matabeleland were left out of the GNU and took the best positions for yourselves and left the Matabeles in the wilderness, yet you shameless fail to first look at yourself or fail to offer an apology to those you turned your backs on when they needed you so much.
Give us one thing your party did for that poor Matabeleland region while you shared power with ZANU-PF, know what nothing
As MDC you failed to plan going into such crucial elections, elections that everybody put their hopes on yet you cry foul. Tendai many months ago ZANU-PF indicated its interest in holding elections at a date this year. Surely a budget was initiated for the exercise, what interest did your party show on the ballot print, inks and all necessary logistics for the elections. I bet nothing you left everything to the capable hands of ZANU-PF and Nikuv.
AS leaders you have failed the people of Zimbabwe, divided them and shamed them. It is time you and your lot get out and stop wasting money going to court. Which court has ever ruled anything in your favour. You just want the people to think you are doing something yet it is a ploy of staying on without a clue as to how to unsit ZANU-PF old men and women walking on zimmer frames.
People of Zimbabwe its time to unite and look for leaders that will not put their own interest first but your own and remove ZANU-PF in order to develop and refocus the country's resources
It has been suggested that people go on the streets to demonstrate. Zimbabweans dont be fooled only go onto the streets once you see your leaders and their families out there demonstrating. Never sacrifice your children for your leaders and their families to live even a better life. They remember you only when times are hard, but during their sweet times they dont know you. Tell them to prepare well for the next elections and not sacrifice you.
