Open letter to Morgan

May I greet you in the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, my brother and former Prime Minister of this beautiful country, Zimbabwe. I know that you are not feeling very well but I am happy that you are recuperating following your visit down South on health grounds. Please get well soon.
I am writing this letter to inform you that I am praying for you dear Morgan; just like I pray for myself so that my sins might be forgiven by the Almighty. Morgan, lets pray for we are all sinners. All human beings are tempted to sin. However, sinning against one's country and nation has other dimensions bordering on high treason even against the creator. So dear Morgan, please join me in prayer so that the Almighty may forgive you for the following sins you committed against your fellow Zimbabweans.

Sin number one
Morgan, you instigated politically motivated industrial strikes and food riots in the late 1990s to please your foreign handlers. You even connived with employers to stop production by sending away workers who reported for duty. Your actions then contributed immensely to our economic difficulties.

Sin number two
After forming your political group you called for economic sanctions, which you later nicknamed "restrictive measures", to be imposed on your country by your western handlers. A sin by any other name is still a sin. Morgan, we all heard you shouting on top of your voice that there are no sanctions against Zimbabwe forgetting that you and your colleagues in sin against this country helped to draft the cruel United States of America's Zimbabwe Democracy Economic Recovery Act (ZIDERA), which was later cosmetically changed to Zimbabwe Transition to Democracy and Economic Recovery Act (ZTDERA). During his motion to put Zimbabwe under economic sanctions in the USA Congress in 2001, the then Assistant Secretary of State, Chester Crocker croaked, "To separate the Zimbabwean people from ZANU (PF) we are going to have to make their economy scream, and I hope you, Senators, have the stomach for what you have to do."  I am sure that you are very aware of the harmful provisions of the devilish Act on the welfare of your fellow Zimbabweans. Morgan, just to refresh your memory, do you remember calling on South Africa to cut electricity exports to Zimbabwe so that the economy would suffer, leading to people rising against their government so that you could sneak into the State House through the back door?

Sin number three

In your rabid and treasonous intention to remove President Mugabe from power at all costs, you hatched a plan to assassinate the President with the help of assassins from Israel. You had to hire some of the most experienced and expensive lawyers found on the African soil, who resorted to a legal technicality, to save your head from the hangman. Morgan, on this one you were acquitted on a technicality but the truth is that you wanted to have the President assassinated.

Sin number four
You used your position as Prime Minister of this country to abuse women and girls. Some of these innocent souls are still nursing their emotional wounds as I write to you. Morgan, you caused serious heartbreaks in your quest to please your zip; hence, you need to sincerely ask for forgiveness from these humble souls.

Sin number five
You created a group of hired henchmen who meted untold violence on fellow Zimbabweans, including members of your political association. I think you still remember the cruel bashing of Trudy Stevenson and petrol bombing of buses and police camps at the hands of your henchmen.

Sin number six
You are lying to Zimbabweans that the introduction of bond notes marks the return of the Zimbabwe dollar, thereby causing unnecessary national panic and speculative tendencies to the detriment of the economy. Soon after waking up from your hospital bed in South Africa you quaked criticising the intended introduction of the notes without proffering an alternative solution to the liquidity crunch. Your political group is full of educated people including economists like Dr Mashakada who should school you on some of these national issues before you resort to making a total fool out of yourself.

Morgan, before concluding this letter, I again implore you to join me in prayer, ask for forgiveness from your fellow Zimbabweans for causing a lot of their suffering. Most importantly, ask for forgiveness from the Almighty for causing pain to his subjects. Take my advice and repent so that our Lord, the all merciful, will forgive you. However, if you continue on your wayward path then the path to hell is waiting for you. Amen.
