Mujuru's cabal has no chance against Mugabe
21 Jan 2015 at 09:53hrs | Views
Recent reports have emerged alleging that former Vice President, Joice Mujuru, and her allies have decided to form a new opposition political party that would challenge the leadership of President Mugabe.
It is alleged that the party, to be launched, will led by the sacked Zanu-PF Secretary for Administration Didymus Mutasa, expelled Zanu-PF Spokesperson, Rugare Gumbo, former Zanu-PF Mashonaland East Provincial chairperson, Ray Kaukonde and a lot other ousted provisional chairpersons. It is also said that this new party will join hands with Mavambo/ Khusile/Dawn leader, Simba Makoni and ZAPU leader, Dumiso Dabengwa.
What surprises me is that all these political players have one thing in common. Surely, they are all sellouts and politically greedy. Indeed there are; so who will lead who? I wonder. Honestly, the idea of forming this opposition party will not work at all. Politically, where is Makoni and Dabengwa right now? Their political environment is not juicy at all. They seem to be extinct in the world of politics. The time we hear of them, they will be uttering reckless political comments and press statements in the media.
Mujuru should go back to the drawing board and think twice before reconsidering this foolishness. Mujuru camp should look behind history of all politicians who left the ruling party to form their own loose political parties. All of them have failed in their backroom attempts to dethrone President Mugabe. It is well known that noone will ever challenge President Mugabe and his people centered ideologies. President Mugabe remains the indisputable choice of all of his followers, hence, the Mujuru camp should never boast of forming a senseless political party.
Truthfully, President Mugabe's politics will never be gauged by sellouts. Unlike most politicians and opposition leaders, President Mugabe's position to deliver is always noticed through peace and prosperity. Peace is already in his hands and noone can deny that. What Mujuru and her cronies want to form is a political party full of uproars and chaos. The way Mujuru's colleagues are putting pressure on her, tells it all that nothing good will ever come out from that coalition.
MDC-T leader, Morgan Tsvangirai, can rightly confirm that his efforts to topple President Mugabe were fruitless. Tsvangirai was used by westerners who have an agenda of regime change. The same could be the case in the Mujuru camp. Kaukonde, who has been sponsoring the entire vote buying process, is believed to be strongly linked to Americans. Honestly, this camp should not waste its time trying to confront the unchallengeable. Trying to challenge a head of a state unconstitutionally can be explained as a recklessness idea in its highest form.
Some of the Mujuru cabals are even distancing themselves from press statements that were issued by Mutasa. Mutasa, in his statements, condemned the Zanu-PF 6th National People's Congress held in December last year regarding it as unacceptable. This alone indicates that Mujuru's ideology of forming a political party will not hold water. Most of the ousted provincial chairpersons who failed to land central committee posts, said they will remain Zanu-PF members under the wise leadership of President Mugabe.
Therefore, all those who are linked to this Mujuru cabal should be encouraged to disassociate themselves from this group, as this will tarnish their images and political reputation.
