After 500 days in hotel, Mphoko still refuse to go - primeval greed turned into madness
23 Jun 2016 at 10:35hrs | Views
VICE-PRESIDENT Phelekezela Mphoko is giving government nightmares as he is refusing to vacate a five star hotel.
Here is a nation whose health service has all but collapsed for lack of funds and yet it has money to house the ruling elite in a five star hotel for 500 days! The regime has already poured $4 million in buying the individual a new mansion and he is not moving in because it is not yet perfect!
One has heard of people being greedy and of insatiable primeval greed; what is happen in Zimbabwe, seen as it must with the contrasting back drop of the grinding poverty, hopelessness and despair of the impoverished mass; is greed gone mad.
Zimbabwe is now being ruled by the certified lunatics; they cannot be held legally of politically responsible for anything they say or do!
"If a madman were to come into this room with a stick in his hand, no doubt we should pity the state of his mind; but our primary consideration would be to take care of ourselves. We should knock him down first, and pity him afterwards."
Boswell: Life of Johnson
The madness at the heart of Zimbabwe's ruling elite has now reached point where their insatiable primeval greed constitutes a serious threat to the human lives and national cohesion and stability.
We must knock down the ruling elite to save them from eating all super refined five star foods every day and the very soles of their feet are evolving into skin from wearing Gucci designer shoes, slippers and socks! Besides how can we continue to justify the suffering of the millions, without whose sacrifice of bare necessities of life the ruling elite would not afford their obscene luxuries, knowing all this good living is eroding the ruling elite's health and sanity!
36 years of absolute power has turned Zanu-PF ruling elite into raving lunatics we must implement the democratic reforms to stop the party rigging elections; that is the only sure way to get these lunatics out of office and save ourselves from the consequences of their insatiable greed.
