Chamisa is a very bad and poor chip off the Tsvangirai block

Mario Vargas Llosa, the world-famed Peruvian writer, penned a small, but sweet collection of incisive essays titled "A Writer's Reality." My favourite from that collection is "Novels Disguised". Its a...

Simba Makoni, Nkosana Moyo emerged from defeat far, far better than Chamisa

I HOPE Chamisa's simmering and smarting hordes are now settled, after what by now should be a long enough cooling period. He is himself showing signs of recovering from zealous political Pentecostalis...

Chamisa is not a factor in parliament, which is good

Since there are so many impious hands on Zimbabwe's internal affairs, so many hands challenging its sovereignty, I thought my opening paragraphs should address those meddlesome, self-righteous foreign...

Chamisa to be arrested after elections?

Judging by on-line reaction, this column has only a handful of readers, but millions of critics! Which is what makes writing it worth every of my while. Week in, week out, you get fiery feedba...

Chamisa: don't play with fire in a village so full of thatched roundavels

Grand National Unity?

"The turbulence in India this time hasn't come from foreign invasion or conquest; it has been generated from within. India cannot respond in her old way, by a further retreat into archaism. Her borrow...

Chamisa flying on broken wings

Following the passing on of Tsvangirai, the late leader of a faction of the MDC, I had an animated discussion with some opposition figure whose identity I shall not disclose. Congenitally boisterous a...

Jonathan Moyo's false hope from Malaysia

I have just been reading Deluze and Guattari's Anti-Oedipus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia. It's a big book, one quite opaque and thus requiring stout intellect and a liberal outlook to digest it....

Nathaniel Manheru resurfaces as Igomombe?

DEAR reader, we regaled each other leisurely under the eaves last week. But it can't be play, play, play forever. We have to get down to the business of interpreting our times, what with so much happe...

Our bad patch called Nelson, more ambitious than Satan

DEAR reader, we regaled each other leisurely under the eaves last week. But it can't be play, play, play forever. We have to get down to the business of interpreting our times, what with so much happe...
