Who really is Jabulani Sibanda?

Yesterday, Jabulani, despised Joseph Msika, who was Vice President of the country and said umsika he knew was where, vagetables and old clothes were bought. In other words to him Vice President Msika was as good as Umkambo.
John Nkomo was also Vice President of this country and he did not recognise him, as Vice President. Yet Jabulani is head of a Para military Organisation, the War Veteran's Association, which recognises the rank structure and seniority.
However, Jabulani, has high regards and respect for Vice President Mujuru, better than Joseph Msika and John Nkomo who were Vice Presidents just like Mujuru is today. He respects Mujuru, even more than President Mugabe, and the First Lady. Is this, really genuine support for Mujuru, or its a cover up of what we are failing to uncover? Because, some of his utterances are treasonous, or are statements that can only be issued by an opposition party spokes person or someone with a mission to operate from within.
From a military point of view, Jabulani as leader of the War Veterans who should be holding a military rank of an Officer, cannot refer to his Commander In Chief as organising a bedroom coup against his junior for that matter. Talking about the bedroom of the President is an insult. You did not want to talk about the coup, but you wanted to show that you can say anything about the President, including his private life.
The question is that those War Veterans who support you, are they really War Veterans of the armed stuggle produced by ZIPRA or ZANLA, or they were produce by the Selous Scouts.
As for your cultural up bringing you were brought up like an animal that knows no law and has no respect.
