Open Letter to President Mugabe

Dearest President Mugabe,
 
I was very happy to see you sitting together with your two vice presidents giving orders to those perceived to be fanning factionalism in ZANU (PF) and disrespecting the office of the president plus the first family.

My pleasure however quickly turned into despair as you started name calling and chastising the chairman of the war veterans association. This your excellency was a matter of looking at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and paying no attention to the plank in your own eye.

Just two weeks ago, your ZANU (PF) spokesman Simon Khaya Moyo communicated to the whole country that the use of tweeter for party and government was banned. In addition, he said there was not going to be anymore vote of no confidence without following the proper ZANU (PF) disciplinary process.

Three days later your own favorite minister was on tweeter communicating party and government business. Your own loving wife convened a rally where she accused your ministers of trying to kill your own son. Kasukuwere was at it again suspending provincial chairman accused of bringing the party into disrepute. Your own vice president, Mpoko was making funny of the karanga people.

All this your Excellency was "in your face" kind of actions. The actions at the Chiweshe rally your Excellency is the problem not the actions by war veterans of Mutsvangwa. If you are serious about resolving the problems bedeviling ZANU (PF) and bring peace to the country then you need to STOP being a referee and a player for the opposing team.

You went on to say we must be Zimbabweans first. Your Excellency, this is an admission by you that you have failed to solve your ZANU (PF) problems. What has Zimbabwe to do with the issues facing your party today? Put your house in order and start by being a husband to your wife and tell her to shut up before you vent your anger to people who have stood by your side for the rest of their lives.

I write to you as a war collaborator who is not aligned to all these shenanigans going on in ZANU (PF). I do not care what happens to Mnangagwa, Mutsvangwa, Moyo, Grace or all those you are victimizing but am worried about your deceptive ways. You managed to use us and dupe us for a long time. Be responsible and be truthful for once. Tell your wife to shut up or you risk losing everything you have worked hard for your entire life.

Gudo guru peta muswe kuti vadiki vagokuremekedza.
 
Sincerely,

Sam
