Mutasa, the Chinhoyi diesel discovery illusionary badly miscalculated

EDITOR,
Didymus Mutasa badly miscalculated his political fortunes in Zimbabwe. It boggles the mind that a normal human being can get it so wrong.
It is evident that Mutasa completed his political life cycle when the final nail on his political-coffin was hammered in at the December 2014 Congress in Harare.
All the vitriol that he spat thereafter reflects the last kicks of a dying horse. His inconsistency, clandestine evils and insatiable desire for political aggrandisement have cost him dearly.
His desire to be the sole member in the "Old ZANU-PF" is a perfect example of a day-dreamer in the contemporary world. Mutasa is a victim of his own delusional dreams which propel him to build castles in the air.
In the forthcoming by-election in his constituency, where he vows to participate on his banner of 'Old ZANU-PF', he is assured of receiving ridicule on his ultimate destination to the political dustbins.
Very soon Mutasa will be screaming louder after vowing to play it alone. He should know better that no-one is bigger than the party.
There have existed like minded people prior to his ordeal who believed they were political assets, and chose to abandon the party and pursue their parallel political aspirations alone.
Names that come to mind are Edgar Tekere, Dumiso Dabengwa, Dr Simba Makon, and Margaret Dongo. The bandwagon is growing with the likes of Didymus Mutasa, Jabulani Sibanda, Temba Mliswa and Rugare Gumbo as latest arrivals on this ship. So far there is none of them who ever registered an inch of success on the political front.
Mutasa needs to be reminded that ZANU-PF is a formidable and invincible political organisation whose legacy hasn't changed since the time of the liberation struggle. I think he is the one who is well-placed to lecture this to others, than acting like a stray donkey.
I wonder how he wishes to keep his head above water in Headlands constituency where he lost popularity dismally owing to his inability to serve the constituents that voted him into Parliament.
In this constituency he is infamous for cruelty, terrorising political opponents even from the same party, womanising, nepotism, favouritism and being the protagonist of illusionary Chinhoyi diesel discovery.
All this is clear testimony that he is headed for doom where he is going to record a resounding thunderous fell when the imminent by-election poll is held in Head¬lands. His expulsion from ZANU-PF came as a sigh of relief for many in his former constituency as it paved way for sanity to prevail.
