There is evidence against Mujuru, Moyo announces on Facebook - the arrogance and madness

"Corruption is an evil and prosecuting corrupt elements is a national duty. The challenge is that there's no way of fighting corruption without evidence that can withstand the scrutiny of the judiciary process in the courts of law," Prof Moyo said during a Facebook interface with followers on Thursday evening.

"Even newspapers can do better by using investigative skills to come up with evidence-based stories on corruption. In the final analysis, the responsibility to fight corruption is shared by all and not just some of us."

So Mugabe took steps to derail the election of Mai Mujuru and all her supporters into party postions and destroying their political careers and reputation on the bases of false allegations. And now that the deed is done and Mugabe and his select cronies shoved Mujuru and her supporters out of the way and got all they wanted; Mugabe and his cronies now admit they never had an iota of evidence to support their allegations. They do not even has the courtesy to apologize but make the admission on face-book as if the whole matter is nothing but a fight between kindergarten kids. This is political arrogance at its worst.

Zimbabwe is in this political nightmare and economic mess and the only way to end this is by having regime change. The notion that only Mugabe, a corrupt and murderous tyrant and his Zanu PF one-party dictatorship are the only one fit to rule the country, even with all the evidence of the misrule, is as outrageous and preposterous as me waking up tomorrow a teenage again. No amount of wishing so will turn the clock back; no amount of propaganda can ever change Mugabe to be anything other than a corrupt and murderous tyrant he is.

The people of Zimbabwe have a right to elect a leader who sees them as human being worthy of all the rights, freedoms and human dignity the rest of mankind out there take for granted. No one has a right to deny them this basic right and hope on the false expectation that a corrupt and murderous tyrant will somehow undergo some metamorphosis transformation and to become the visionary and just leader the nation has been dying for all these last 35 years.

The people of Zimbabwe demand that Mugabe and his cronies step down now to allow for free, fair and credible elections and an orderly end to the political nightmare and economic mess the tyrant land the nation into.  Regime change is as certain as the sun rising tomorrow the only question to be settled now is whether the change is evolutionary and orderly or revolutionary and violent.

We argue Mugabe and his cronies to accept the former route by accept they have failed and step down now without further delay. By stubbornly hanging on to power Mugabe will per se elected violent change in which he will be swept out of office the Muammar Gaddafi way! The people of Zimbabwe have suffered a great deal these last 35 years, the cup is full to overflowing, there is no need to drag the nation any deep into this hell just to gratify the insatiable appetite of a tyrant and his cronies for power and wealth. The political arrogance and madness must stop now!
