Insecure Professor Moyo fearful of 'Gamatox 2' calls for Zanu PF trucel

The infighting in Zanu PF took a new twist last week with Mayor Wadyajena, a Zanu PF chairperson of a parliamentary committee pushing for the parliamentary censure of Zanu PF Local Government minister and party political commissar, Saviour Kasukuwere.
Professor Jonathan Moyo, an ally of the beleaguered Kasukuwere, is calling for an end to the infighting. He smelt "Gamatox 2", he twittered.
As the man who masterminded the now infamous 2004 Tsholotsho debacle to ouster President Mugabe; Professor Moyo will know all the ins and outs about political intrigue, be it Gamatox 1 and now Gamatox 2. Indeed, why did he not just call it Tsholotsho 2 since he has been doing his own scheming to counter the Gamatox 2 faction - fighting in Kasukuwere's corner in this case!
"With the leader of the House, chief whip, Speaker of Parliament, portfolio committee majority and its chair all ours how do we move to charge our commissar?" Moyo asked. Kasukuwere's censure were personal, not legal; Moyo argued.
What was legal basis for Grace Mugabe's the ruthless attack of former VP Joyce Mujuru and subsequent purge of her and her Gamatox 1 supporters? Professor Moyo attended some of Grace's public rallies and witnessed the verbal attacks; it is inconceivable that he did not play a role in this.
Professor Moyo is reaching for the law now because he is feeling the heat of the savagery of the infighting in Zanu PF. His unceremonious kicking out of the powerful Ministry of Information a few weeks ago must have reminded the Professor just how insecure his own position in the party was.
So when it has him who has riding roughshod over Mai Mujuru and the others he was not bothered about the legalities of it all; now that he and his allies are on the business end of the whip he wants the infighting to stop!
Didymus Mutasa from Gamatox 1 has already confirmed that Zanu PF rigged the last elections and so no one is fooled by Zanu PF's majority in parliament, control of parliamentary committees, etc. Professor Moyo is referring to. Zanu PF is imploding and the party's rigged majority will do nothing to stop its tearing itself apart.
Now that the self-distract gene in the party has been fully activated there is no going back; there will be Gamatox 2, Tsholotsho 2, etc. and the infighting is not going to stop until this corrupt and tyrannical Zanu PF dictatorship is reduced to ashes and dust.
