Misihairabwi a big threat to coalition

Mdc secretary general Priscilla Misihairabwi Mushonga has dismally and miserably failed to demonstrate capacity to lead the MDC.
Allegations of political corruption, backdoor power, moody behaviour, tribalism and nepotism seem to be weighing heavily on her political career.
The recent appointment of a Southern region Ndebele linked technical team to engage the renewal team over a possible reunification has exposed both professor Ncube and the secretary general.
Misihairabwi is in a hurry to find a political home for herself and not for anyone.
It has now come to light that the lady does not come from Masvingo as has been badly speculated by many party followers.
Masvingo is not valued in as far as MDC politics is concerned and most Zezurus and Ndebeles in the party do not think that anyone from Masvingo can be president of Zimbabwe.
Non of the people in the renewal would want to work with Priscilla Misihairabwi as secretary general because of her behaviour and high intolerance levels.
If the Ncube party goes to congress today she will never win a seat in the national executive because of the way she has handled party issues.
If renewal accepts Priscilla appointment into the management committee the coalition or union will collapse.
The corrupt grabbing of the Matebeleland seat after claiming to be Karanga caused the defection of most people to the renewal team in protest.
The dismissal of Petros Mkwena was a three people decision made without democratic consultation.
That was the most stupid decision by party leadership.
The reason why some of us joined renewal is the tribal adminstration of party affairs where a Gwanda based treasurer has usurped the powers of the vice president with the protection of party president.
The Zezuru and Karangas in the MDC are under threat and are considered daft and illiterate in a set up where a former Highlanders football club desk secretary was forcibly dragged into the MDC national executive by the treasurer who claims to be a former Zapu leader though he was never seen anywhere in the bush.
Tribalism in the MDC is now visible a disease that has caused most people to cross the floor to other parties.
The renewal team will prefer a coalition ahead of reunification with a four member club.
Prof Ncube should stop this woman from playing cheap tribal games thinking that people are not assessing every movement.
Cdes your people are watching every step you make all the time and may not join you when you go into any marriage with other parties because of the manner you handle Priscilla mistakes.
