Why Biti's long Historical presentation must be adopted by every Educated Zimbabwean

Education dispels fear! Education is the most important tool a modern human being MUST possess and UTILISE. We should salute Biti for using the tool of the Educated in narrating the History of violence in Zimbabwe. There is no point in getting Educated and failing to use that power to eradicate repression which reduces you into a rubble of uselessness.

With the essence of an Educated man, Biti refused to be abstract in narrating the seminal seeds leading to the events of August 1 2018 by people who have, in the past, carried out genocide in Zimbabwe. In a presentation which was expected to take 30 minutes and concentrate only on August 1 2018, Biti took more than two and a half hours, and he touched the seeds and fruits of violence. An incompetent narrator would have dwelt on August 1 only. August one was just a daily fruit of the cruel seeds which were planted a century ago.

I advise every Zimbabwean to try Biti's skill in every case where one is accused of handling the fruits of a bad seed which was planted by others. Zanu fought Colonialism for ruling Zimbabweans cruelly, and then used Colonial cruelty to rule Zimbabweans. They did not innovate the cruel arm of Governance in 1980, instead, they mastered and tripled it.

At one point in 2012, I wrote an article on Bulawayo24 advising Zimbabweans claiming Asylum in UK to refuse to narrate their story limiting it ONLY to the year 2000's Mugabe violence. I advised them to narrate their history from the seed of violence back in year 1888. I mentioned that if Colonialism had not happened, no Mugabe would have led Zimbabwe. Most Zimbabweans failed to narrate their asylum because they did not show Britain how it was culpable in producing Zimbabwean Asylum seekers of today.

What Biti did is very helpful and educated.

First of all, an educated person should not accept to be invited to give a presentation and be bullied to limit his presentation ONLY to the interest of the inviter. As an educated person, you should be free to use your time to narrate every detail which informs every atom your psyche. If you know that the Zanu you are dealing with, copied the traits of Colonial repression, then be free to take time to bare it out. If you know that the Zanu you are dealing with, killed Nhari for complaining that the leaders of Zanu had a Blue Roof mentality, as far back as 1976, then, be free to take time to bare it all out. If you succumb to the time restriction and tactical constraints of the inviter, you risk being contained in a basket of fruits, while the free orchard where the seed was planted by others, is the real cause of problems.

If you can't tell the World that Mnangagwa and Shiri were protagonists of Gukurahundi which killed 30 000 Zimbabweans till 1989, then you won't have ground to expose the causes of August 1 to a panel of a Commission which is blinkered to the FRUIT and not the SEED of violence.

Hats off to Nelson Chamisa for refusing to make his presentation when the ZBC is turned off.

Dear Zimbabweans, you are now treading into the educated Politics which I can join. I wouldn't want to work with fools in trying to free Zimbabwe. I would be happy to work with futuristic innovators who apply modern tools to deal with these old and cruel leaders who build Blue Roofs at the expense of our sweat, our freedom, our tears and our demise. Well done MDC Alliance.
