Mugabe Lionel Messi of Zimbabwe politics
07 Nov 2017 at 01:32hrs | Views
Once more again it has proved that the President Robert Gabriel Mugabe is a schemer and Lionel Messi of Zimbabwean politics.
Vice President Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa was fired by President Mugabe for among other reasons disloyalty disrespectful, deceit and being unreliable.
This was confirmed by the Minister of Information, Media and Broadcasting Services, Cde Simon Khaya Moyo on the briefing at Munhumutapa in Harare.
The dismissal of the country's deputy Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa came after various sectors of the ruling ZANU PF have called on Mugabe to dismiss Mnangagwa who is the second Secretary of the party from both party and government duties.
It is likely that the President wants to appoint his wife Dr Grace Mugabe to the presidium because according to the constitution Mugabe is the one who is empowered to choose or elect a Vice President of his choice and in this case nothing can stop him from electing his wife Dr Grace Mugabe. All the provinces will just rubber stamp on that decision. Grace Mugabe was catapulted to the Women's League and does not have a constituency.
Dr Mugabe once said that she can as well succeed President Mugabe as Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa had set the precedence when he left Chirumhanzu-Zibagwe constituency seat for his wife, Cde Auxillia Mnangagwa.
Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa has also been accused of his double standards when on the other hand he was seen bootlicking and on the other hand doing the opposite.
His firing has also seen some casualties the likes of Oppah Muchinguri, Patrick Chinamasa, Christopher Mushowe and 29 others being affected in Manicaland.
The country is in dire state economically and people should not celebrate too much because these are just two powerful elites politicians who want to get it all through fighting to control some resources.
It's not wise to pick a side in this fight between Team Lacoste and G40. They are not fighting for the general Zimbabweans but are only fighting for power. They are not even fighting for democracy, freedom, justice, peace or anything of value to the general public.Whoever ends up victorious, is all the same and it's only that we have a very weak opposition which is failing to take advantage of this fighting and start serious mobilisation to prepare winning the 2018 election.
It's like a fight between two crocodiles whichever wins that will still not make the river passable, it will always be unsafe and dangerous to cross the river.
Both sides have not done justice to the economic development of our country. The people are struggling to access cash in banks and are spending much of their time queuing for cash. We are still using bond notes and we don't have our own currency. Both sides continue in their evil buying expensive cars for themselves and when they are sick, they are flown out of the country to seek medical attention. People should not be hoodwinked thinking that there is a better side.
What goes around comes around.Now Cde Emmerson Mnangagwa understands how it feels. He was cheering when the same was being subjected to Joyce Mujuru. Instead of supporting the former the VP was adding more paraffin to Mujuru's sacking.
Cde Emmerson Mnangagwa could have forseen it long back that the plot to fire him was thickening each and every day. Two years ago at Zanu PF Headquarters he was undressed by Mandiitawepi Chimene and Sarah Mahoka in front of Zanu PF cadres and he failed to read between the lines. That is when he was supposed to have thrown in ghe towel.
Zimbabweans should now start focusing life after Zanu PF and President Robert Mugabe. This should not distract the mission and goals of real democrats who want to see a new political dispensation. A new Zimbabwe is possible.
