Zimbabwean people must understand that the decisions we take now affect the long future. ED may rape the nation and conduct a sham election and win aided by ZEC. What is needed is for people to be given a chance to choose their desired leader. This can only happen if ZEC affords them this opportunity conducting a very transparent election.
But what we see now is ZEC and Zanu Pf resonating in defense of ZEC's efforts to cast darkness and clouds to the whole election process. Zanu pf is at the forefront of defending ZEC in all state/Zanu pf controlled, clearly showing that they are they are working hand in glove to rob the nation of victory. But it is us Zimbabweans who should resist that Zanu pf keeps stealing the elections, while our economy continues to shrink. ED and Zanu pf have already failed, 37 years is power and they have totally failed to improve the livelihood of the Zimbabwen, but have actually made it unbearable. ED is in power now and nothing is changing. Zanu pf has already failed, whoever leads it now doesn't matter. It is a corrupt party which will continue with corruption. Zimbabweans are being told to hope in Mega deals being signed. Mega were signed since independence and that didn't improve the economy and ED wants to continue deceiving many by just signing more Mega deals.
A fair election is needed and it is the right of the whole nation to have a fair election. All previous elections were manipulated, and ED wants to manipulate this one too, even though he cannot deliver. The Zimbabwean should not be cheated forever. The Zimbabwean must make the earthquake Chigumba solicited, and this election must not go, until it is a clear and transparent one. A fair and transparent election is key to all accountability in governance that will follow. But if Zimbabweans begin with a sham election, accountability in the 'elected' government will not follow. This 2018 transparent election is a do or die situation for the Zimbabwean, i.e if the ZIMBABWEAN cares about the future of his/her nation. It all begins with free, fair transparent election, and Priscilla Chigumba should not think Zimbabweans are fools who do not know what a free and fair election is like. She may force and aid ED to cheat the whole nation, but in the end we will remember her and the evil she did, blocking the way for the Zimbabwean to self-governance. She will benefit personally yes, but at the expense of immensely many suffering Zimbabweans. She is choosing to be on the wrong side of history. Great people do good things for their fellow countrymen, and not rob them in broad daylight. Chigumba should reason it out that the future is greater than the evil desires of a single man. The future is for us all, and for our children and their children's children, and we should not kill everyone's future, just for one man.
We see ZEC led by Chigumba truing everything to sway the election in ED'd favor. Police have already been forced to vote in total secrecy. ZEC has refused opposition access to the printing of the ballot paper. ZEC has come out with a voter's role with in excess of 250 000 ghost voters. ZEC is openly trying to manipulate the election in favour of Zanu Pf. People of Zimbabwe are left with no doubt that ZEC ic compromised. She is shamelessly trying hard to give ED victory and in the process she is in contempt of all values. She is disrespects JUSTICE. She also disrespects Zimbabweans.
Given that it is pointless to go through a clearly predetermined election in favour of ED. It makes no sense at all.
But if we Zimbabweans fail now then we will have failed forever. So it is important that we all come together and demand that we have free and fair election, this time around and always, and not be cheated by one man, who has in all his history in government, has never won a single election, but has always and can only cheat his way through. ED Munangagwa knows he can not win in a fair election. So he is going to force. In his memo from abroad, he wrote, and I clearly remember, ZIMBABWEANS I WILL BE COMING BACK TO LEAD YOU. Its not ED' Munangagwa's right or entitlement to lead us, but it is indeed our right to choose any leader we want, and not for anyone whatsoever to impose his leadership on us.
The election must not go ad ED Munangagwa should resign immediately, for he has shown himself to be a criminal who does gruesome stuff to get whatever he wants. He is simply not fit to represent me or any other Zimbabwean. ED Munangagwa cannot not uphold justice.
