Brother Musewe just join ZimPF in a coalition or whatever just do not try to hoodwink the people by falsely portraying people like Joice Mujuru as reformed democrats; being booted out of Zanu PF did not cure her of being the lazy, corrupt and incompetent she was in her 34 years in Zanu PF.
"This also applies to Mujuru et al. We must admit from where we are coming from that nobody has been left unscathed by a toxic political environment that required some amongst us to take the wrong side of history for reasons best known to themselves. Their fault was because they were more concerned about their personal ambition than the fate of the country, but now that they have realised that supporting evil is wrong, even with the comforts it may temporarily provided them, we should therefore celebrate their revelation because it adds more voices to our cause," said Musewe.
My brother, you have your eyes on securing a seat on the political gravy train; you are so desperate to get that seat you have thrown all caution to the wind. You really do not wish to see Joice Mujuru and her ZimPF team for the corrupt, incompetent and murderous tyrants they are and hence the reason you have those rose tinted glasses on. Your choice! What some of us find nauseating about you is your pathetic attempts to force us to see the falsified image to justify and thus hid your blind greed!
You say "nobody" has been left unscathed by the toxic Zanu PF politic; that is rubbish because not every Zimbabwean is corrupt and certain not everyone has shed innocent blood for selfish political gain. Indeed the overwhelming majority of Zimbabweans are the victims of the regime's ruinous misrule and not co-actors in this macabre tragedy.
We all know the reason people like Joice Mujuru, Didymus Mutasa and the rest of her ZimPF members have played their part of establishing and imposing the corrupt and murderous Zanu PF dictatorship for all those 34 years they were at the heart of the regime – greed. You say only they know why they were "on the wrong side of history" and then admit it was greed, or "personal ambition", to use your words.
So Mai Mujuru stayed in office for 34 years to pursue her personal ambition; she joined as deputy minister was elevated to minister and then Vice President and God knows she did her best to get her lion's share of the looted wealth that went on during all these years. She was doing just fine and would have remained in Zanu PF forever if she had not been booted out. She should have seen it coming, everyone knows Mugabe is a cunning fox with a knack for rigging elections, but the fact that she was caught by surprise only shows just how naïve and incompetent she and her ZimPF friend are.
Mujuru and her ZimPF friends were booted out of Zanu PF and they failed to mount any effective defence only because they are naïve and incompetent. How anyone can now twist the facts and claim what happened was an awakening as the group members suddenly "realized" they had been supporting evil.
Mai Mujuru and friends had smart enough to know that if they are to be elected back into power they have denounce corruption and political oppression they took part in during their Zanu PF as evil. Brother Musewe wants us to take the denunciation as proof Mujuru and friends will never ever be corrupt and oppressive ever again.
We are to believe that if Mai Mujuru and her ZimPF were to win the 2018 elections, they would implement the democratic reforms necessary for free, fair and credible elections. They will do this regardless of the their Zanu PF track record as corrupt and incompetent which means they will be setting themselves up to lose the next elections. Brother Musewe is painting a false picture here which only the naïve and gullible will believe.
It is no secret that Tendai Biti and his PDP,of which Musewe is a member, is seeking to form a coalition with Mai Mujuru and her ZimPF, hence the reason Musewe is as rose a picture of the latter to justify why the coalition.
Musewe and Biti are smart enough to know Mai Mujuru has not change one bit, she and her ZimPF friends are the same corrupt and incompetent politicians they were during their days in Zanu PF. PDP is forming the coalition to enhance its own chance of being elected back into office and if painting a false picture of Mai Mujuru will help then great.
"We need to move away from debates on the pros and cons of others joining the struggle. Let all Zimbabweans join the struggle en mass regardless of where they are coming from because what is more important is where we are going and not where we have been," Musewe argues.
But that is exactly the point; we are still in struggling for freedom, human right, free and fair elections, etc., 36 years after independence, because Mai Mujuru and her Zanu PF cronies betrayed us and failed to take us where we, the people, wanted to go. Just because Mai Mujuru and her ZimPF friends were themselves kicked out of Zanu PF does not mean we can now trust them to deliver the free, just and democratic Zimbabwe we want!
Mai Mujuru will never ever implement the democratic reforms necessary for free and fair elections if ZimPF was to win the 2018 elections. She is corrupt and incompetent but not that incompetent not to realize that she will never win free and fair elections.
Musewe you see in ZimPF your chance to get into power, you also know ZimPF will never deliver the free, just and prosperous Zimbabwe we want but are going out of your way to deny this because admitting it will endanger your seat of the gravy train.
Zimbabwe's economic meltdown and political mess are all man-made problems born out of failed leadership. We are cursed with a whole army of political leaders but few, if any, are competent and have any moral scruples. President Mugabe has enjoyed absolute power because he was able bribed Joice Mujuru, Mnangagwa, Tsvangirai, Biti, every one!
If we are serious about ending Zimbabwe's political and economic mess then we must start looking for quality leaders with a political spine and not be fooled by conman like Musewe pedalling recycled yesterday's proven corrupt and incompetent sell-outs who are only interested in chance to continue the looting from where they stop last time they were in power!
