In a New Year's message, Zim Papers columnist Nathaniel Manheru has attacked the most prominent members of the Zimbabwean opposition saying that they are blind and set to lose in the upcoming elections.
Manheru has predicted that Joice Mujuru "will emerge from that by-election with a shattered limb. And when that happens, the purr of dissent in her party will rise to an open challenge, while the invitation to a coalition by the MDC-T will turn to grisly call for political self-immolation. She will have shown what her real worth is, well away and beyond the benefit of the doubt she hoped to profit from."
Mujuru was also blasted for being out of touch because of the court visits, hoping for the withdrawal of bond notes. "How out of touch can one ever be, how daft, how unfit to govern!" asks Mahneru.
MDC-T did not fare any better from Manheru's vitriol. He claimed that they are still too traumatised by the 2013 defeat have decided to sponsor a candidate disguised as an independent.
Attacking the coalition leaders Mujuru, Tsvangirai and Welshman Ncube, he wrote: "Meanwhile, the doting opposition is busy hoping that some businessman will emerge to pension off Mujuru and Tsvangirai, all to inherit their coalesced support base! It is called coalition through a corporate buyout! Is that not the Trump approach? An era of moguls in politics? Meanwhile, meanwhile the Mujuru-Tsvangirai coalition has come unstuck over the question of rogue war veterans!
"Tsvangirai, a non-war veteran wants a coalition with the rogue element; Mujuru, a war veteran, will none of that! Meanwhile, meanwhile, Professor Welshman Ncube, forever a transcendental intellectual, wants everyone in the broad church, tipped though he is said to be, to become Tsvangirai's top lieutenant in the coalition which includes Mujuru! The good Professor could not re-educate Mzila who wallows in tribal narrowness; the good Professor could not muster support in Matabeleland, and today walks back to Tsvangirai, alone, empty-handed. Still, it is a coalition!"
