Thokozani Khuphe attack confirms evil gukurahundi spirit in Tsvangirai

MLO condenms with all contempt it deserves, the abuse and violent behaviour by Morgan Tsvangirai towards the people of Matabele origin.
MLO is not surprised at all that Morgan Tsvangirai sent Shona speaking thugs all the way from Harare to beat up and abuse Thokozani Khuphe, his Vice President, Lovemore Moyo the MDCT National Chairman and Abednico Bhebhe , the MDCT Organising Secretary and other MDCT senior leaders in Matebelelland.. He is not even ashamed to hire more than 30 thugs to attack a defenceless woman.
MLO is aware that Morgan Tsvangirai has a long history of unfettered violence especially towards Matabeles. His former comrades in crimes against humanity in ZANU pf have solidly confirmed that during Matabeleland genocide in the 80s, he was a foot soldier of the 5th Brigade. He led a group of thugs that attempted to assassinate Joshua Nkomo and bombed a police station in Tsholotsho and involved in many heinous crimes against humanity.
He did not end there. In 2005 the same Morgan Tsvangirai sent violent thugs to beat up and chase out of Harare, the then Vice President of MDC the late Gibson Sibanda and Secretary General Welshman Ncube. Treasurer-General the late Fletcher Dulini Ncube and MDC Spokeman Paul Themba Nyathi.
We are not yet done exposing Tsvangirai's selective punishment which borders on Shona supremacism, tribalism ,hate and gukurahundism.
In 2005 Job Sikhala left the MDC to form MDC99 but he was not touched or beaten. In 2014, again,there was a misunderstanding in the MDC-T and Tendai Biti then Secretary general left MDC T to form MDC-Renewal which would later become People's Democratic Party (PDP). He too was not touched or beaten.
The only reason Biti and Sikhala were spared the humiliation of being beaten and belittled in full glare of the world is because they belong to the Shona tribe in Zimbabwe which enjoys supremacy status in Zanu-pf and MDC T.
Khuphe's attack is full evidence that Matabele lives are not safe in today's Zimbabwe and the so called new Zimbabwe under MDC T. There is no reason for a right thinking Matabele to remain in Zimbabwe where they are not wanted. Hence calls for the revival of Matabeleland statehood have been received with open hands.
Morgan Tsvangirai knows that if you want to kill or abuse someone in Zimbabwe it has to be Matabele. If you murder, rape, abuse or publicly humiliate Matabeles in Zimbabwe, impunity, promotion and heros status is guranteed. .
Those who committed genocide in Matabeleland including Tsvangirai are walking free and holding high positions. Those who stoned Welshman Ncube and Gibson Sibanda out of Harare were not punished. And the latest thugs who attacked Khuphe will go unpublished. Thus Matabele genocide will continue. Physical and mental abuse of innocent Matabeles will continue, marginalisation and domination of Matabeles will continue, discrimination and hatred of Matebele people will continue.
But Morgan Tsvangirai and other Shona supremacist must be warned that the political environment in Matabeleland has drastically changed and Matebeles are now ready to clam our land and protect our citizens from abuse they have been subjected to since 4 November 1893. The atmosphere is tense, Matabeles are now tired of Shona hegemony and misrule.
Any idiot who is in the habit of playing with matches in this part of the world will one stupid day, light a fire that will consume the fake state called Zimbabwe.
When Matabeles are under attack MLO does not need to be invited to jump in and defend Matabele nation. Instances like these will be taken as irresistible invitations.
Our message to our Matebele citizentry is , get ready and stand to fight for your independence and sovereignty. It is the right thing to so.
