Mthwakazi Republic party spokesperson Mbonisi Gumbo has accused the ruling Zanu PF government for taking the people for a ride by introducing a national flag salute pledge which makes people violate God's commandment that they must have no any other God beside him.

The beginning of the pledge reads,"Almighty God, in whose hands our future lies, I salute the national flag."

Gumbo said this opening part was designed to capture the attention and allegiance of an increasingly christianised society, and ensure a sacred subservience to the whole string of hidden evil that follows. Heb said Christians have a tendency to follow as holy anything done under God's name,....here Zanu PF is taking people for a free ride.

Party of it reads, "United in our diversity by our common desire for freedom, justice and equality."

But Gumbo said this is a big lie after a remark that acknowledges the seniority of the creator, God.

"Who in Zimbabwe is united with who? This is by all means an attempt to outdo the existing ethnic tensions among the new generations, noticing that after a score and a half after the matabelaland ethnic genocide, tension continue to swell than subside," Gumbo said.

"This is calculated mischief, that is set to allow a domineering ethnic group to exploit and dupe the other other to accommodate their selfish interests! A preamble of definitions could have protected these words( 'united', 'justice', equality') from abuse"

Another part reads, "Respecting the brave fathers and mothers who lost lives in the Chimurenga/ Umvukela and national liberation struggles."

"We all know this is a lie! Nkomo's nationalist concept has been greatly violated together with that of other zipra Cdes who died for Zimbabwe,  No respect of any kind has been conferred to them with utmost genuine of course the divisionist interests of Zanu PF has been respected," he said.

Part of the pledge reads, " We're proud inheritors of the richness of our natural resources. We're proud creators and participants in our vibrant traditions and cultures. We commit to honesty and the dignity of hard work".

Gumbo said this bottom line pays respect and sums the commitment to the 1979 grand plan.

"In essence, our children will be forced to recite a victory prayer for the grand plan with the blessing of its victims, their parents!" he said.

Zanu PF is a sly party! Masking evil by pretending to acknowledge God!
Cdes let's watch out!."
