Chamisa using David Coltart to play dangerous tribal political games in Bulawayo

Where is Welshman Ncube, where is Thokozani Khupe, where is Mqondisi Moyo of MRP, where is Sibangilizwe Nkomo of ZAPU? As for Cde Paul Siwela, I know he is pained and ashamed of what is happening in Matabeleland in general and Bulawayo in particular. The City of Kings is being captured by foreigners right before our eyes.This calls for all Matabeleland leaders and indeed all Matabeles in their diversity to stand up, unite and save our city and the entire Matabeleland territory from Mashonaland political rejects, tribal oppressors, fortune seekers, and opportunists.
When the enemy captures the capital city of Matabeleland it means that Matabeleland as a whole is captured. It means that the enemy is right inside the King's palace worshiping and serving the spirits of witch- craft and idols of Nehanda and Kaguvi which is an abomination. Bulawayo is the city of our kings, the symbol of Matabeleland nationhood, epicentre of our culture and our pride. As Matabeles we should know where to draw the line that should not be crossed by foreigners.
Chamisa has shown his true colours as an unashamed dictator, tribalist and the driver of the satanic and evil 1979 Shona Grand Plan by imposing Shona councillors and members of parliament in Matabeleland in general and Bulawayo in particular. This shows that he does not care about the tribally oppressed and suffering Matabeles but cares only about enabling and implementing the evil 1979 Shona Grand Plan to preserve and maintain Shona supremacist rule in Matabeleland. He is using Matabeles as voting cattle and launch pad for him and his Shona comrades to go to our local government and Zimbabwe parliament to enjoy fat salaries, allowances and millions of dollars disbursed to the main opposition under Political Parties Financial Act.
Its all about money, resources and benefits. The majority of councillors who unfortunately are Shona, have no interests of Matabele people at heart.
Those who view Chamisa as a fair leader must explain to us why he did not exercise the very absolute political powers he used to impose Shona councillors and parliamentarians in Bulawayo to do the same in Harare. Not even one Matabele under Chamisa's CCC holds a position in Harare let alone Mashonaland. Shonas are being deliberately imposed in their numbers in Bulawayo and Matabeleland with the evil intention to achieve the goals of the Shona Grand Plan ie to tribally oppress, dominate, subjugate, drive Matabele masses out of Bulawayo and other towns to rural areas where they would become poor and jobless peasants.
If by any chance or miracle a Matabele finds themselves representing Shonas in Mashonaland, I bet they would not last a minute in the office. They would be burnt alive in that office or if they are lucky, they would be bashed and chased out of Mashonaland. Those who do not believe us must ask Thokozani Khupe who was saved by the police when Shona youths wanted to burn her inside a thatched hut for showing an appetite for the position of president which is a reserve for Shona people in the CCC. Ask Welshman Ncube who in 2005, along with the late MDC Vice President, Gibson Sibanda and other Matabele leaders were beaten up chased out of Harare for upholding the MDC constitution.
There is this embarrassing trend in Matabeleland whereby certain individuals go to Mashonaland shopping for Shona leaders to come and lead them in Matabeleland. God have mercy! Are there no leaders amongst yourselves? Are you afraid of leading your own people?
In 1999 Morgan Tsvangirai was invited from Mashonaland to lead Matabeles and it all ended in tears. He caused the MDC split that happened on tribal lines. Matabele leaders were chased out of Harare to Matabeleland. The project was a total failure. It only managed to settle more Shona people in Matabeleland than ZANU-PF.
The same Matabele leaders who were stoned out of Harare went back to Mashonaland to look for another Shona leader. Professor Arthur Mutambara came and he was also a disaster. He did not even command a dissent political support in Mashonaland.
The same people went to Mashonaland again and this time they brought a dictator, tribalist and perennial looser, Nelson Chamisa who was rejected by his own Shona people in Masvingo. His briefcase party, CCC was rejected by the Shona people who prefer the original puppet of the West, ZANUpf. The tin pot dictator that took the reigns through a civilian coup must realise that he is not the permanent sweetheart of Matabeleland. He is just a beneficiary of the protest vote in Matabeleland just because Matabeles do not want a genocidist and oppressive party ZANU pf. His days of abusing and deceiving Matabeles are numbered.
If Matabeles ditched their beloved party, ZAPU for for failing to protect them and uniting with ZANUpf, who is Chamisa? What is CCC?
We salute the people of Victoria Falls who have bravely resisted the imposition of Shona councillors and mayor. The people of Bulawayo and elsewhere in Matabeleland should unapologetically do the same. The deadly mistake of allowing imposed Shona councillors, deputy mayor and parliamentarians to represent us must be corrected as a matter of urgency.
We understand the so called Donaldson Mabutho, after he was successfully imposed as Deputy Mayor of Bulawayo, hurriedly flew to Victoria Falls with the list of candidates that were to be imposed as Mayor and and Deputy Mayor of Victoria Falls. The people of Victoria Falls chased him away and showed Bulawayo how to deal with tribalists and undemocratic invaders from Mashonaland. It is frightening as it is embarrassing that the foreigners easily walked into the high offices in Bulawayo without meeting any resistance. The strategy to "occupy and guard our space" is failing.
However, all leaders and fellow Matabeles must realise that breaking away from Zimbabwe to restore the statehood of Matabeleland that should join the family of nations as The Republic of Matabeleland is the only permanent solution to our political bondage and tribal oppression in Zimbabwe where the Shona supremacist in the ruling and opposition party take turns in inflicting pain on us.
