Was Grace scathing dismissal of VP candidate for being too sick a subtle rebuke of R G Mugabe?

When you are not clever say nothing and let people think you a fool rather than open your mouth and prove them right! Being the First Lady for all these years Grace Mugabe could not always be on her guard and never say anything, so she said very little but enough to make people think her a half-shilling. But ever since she stepped into the full political spotlight by winning the Zanu PF Women's League chairperson position she has been like a hyper active dog with its leash finally removed. The whole world now knows that she is a half-shilling all ‘give her the benefit of the doubt' is gone!

Grace was scathing in her latest attack of one Zanu PF members who has dared put his name in the hat for one of the two Vice President positions.

"Uri murwere apo urikuisa zita rako forward. Unoita kunge dhongi. Pfungwa dzako hadzina kukwana. Tanga wazviongorora. Uchakambaira uchienda ikoko?" (You are sick and yet you put your name forward. You are like a donkey. You are not a full shilling. Are you going to crawl to get there?) She demanded to know.

There are five candidates vying for the VP position from the former PF Zapu camp alone. She did not say who she was speaking about.

Here is someone whose husband is not a spring chicken by any account, has been President for 34 years already, is as sick as a parrot – we all know since he has been going in and out of the country to Singapore like a yoyo, as much as eight times in one year, at princely sum of $3 million each trip. That has not stopped Mugabe putting his name in the hat again and she has never said anything! Or is this her telling him now in her own not so subtle way?

Grace Mugabe has grabbed as many as fifteen farms for herself; her son with her first husband, Russell; her brother the former Zimbabwe Ambassador to Canada; her daughter Bona (she was named in the latest farm seizure in Goromonzo); etc. She was boosting of how she seizure the Mazoe farm where she built the orphanage and that she will spill blood if anyone tried to take it away.

62% of the people are poor and 16% or 2 million now live in abject poverty because of the decades of corruption and all-out looting spree by this Zanu PF regime and Grace even boost of leading these marauding thugs from front. She uses a fraction of the looted wealth to build an orphanage to cater for but a tiny fraction of the impoverished populous and she expects the nation to be speechless and forever grateful! 

Now that Grace has grabbed the position of chairperson of Zanu PF Women's League before she has been confirmed into that position she already has her sight on being one of the Vice President with the view of being the de facto president whether RG Mugabe or the party wants it or not!  

If the electorate think a particular candidate is not suitable for whatever reasons be it age, health, shameless greed, incompetence, whatever; they will simply not vote for him or her. Why do she and Zanu PF not trust the electorate to make this decision in a free, fair and credible election?

Ever since Grace Mugabe embarked on these meet-the-people rallies, a poorly disguised rallies to spruce her image and de-campaign her challengers, she has left no one in any doubt she here to grab as much power as she can and will ride roughshod over everyone to get it. She was given a long rope and is in the final phase of hanging herself with it; we must be careful that she does not hang a lot other innocent people first!
