MDC-T 'a duplicate of ZANU-PF'

It is sad to listen to people like Obert Gutu and the entire MDC-T leadership mislead the people of Zimbabwe as they do by making people believe that they are still a strong opposition party. In the face Zimbabweans who are angry properly so over the criminals of ZANU-PF not showing signs of let go of power, MDC-T seems the only hope.
What the Zimbabweans are not aware of is that even if Tswangirai were to take over power from Mugabe nothing and absolutely nothing will change at all the economy will go down even faster than it is at this time. The investors have suddenly realised that Tswangirai and Mugabe are the same coin showing just two different sides but of similar value.
The people that are not honest in this game are diaspora chair persons of the MDC-T, the leadership in the MDC-T and those capable of using both social media and commentaries offered on media in wider Zimbabwe. What one would say is that the extent of the MDC-T misleading propaganda is keeping this party alive.
In the international world the MDC-T and its leader Tswangirai are no longer representative of the opposition but self centred interests. They are now viewed as opportunists who have no vision, violent, corrupt, power hungry and in every way a duplicate of ZANU-PF in every way possible. A number of significant issues will show, for example not one person, group or organization is willing to sponsor the MDC-T hence they turn to their struggle supporters. Governments in most or all countries have stopped recognizing refugees coming into their countries seeking asylum under the MDC-T sighting the fact that the party does not fall under opposition entities and therefore their supporters are no longer prosecuted or persecuted for their allegiance to MDC-T.
This has been taken by most countries so seriously that any person fronting the MDC-T membership in requesting for asylum as untrue and worthy deporting over night. Deportation can delay due to procedures to be followed, but no matter how much it will happen.
The sad thing in all this, is that it is other people that have looked at the horse's mouth and seen its age but the buyer insists that it is still young and gets pushed out of the race course during competitions and will therefore keep it and retrain it to stand its ground while the truth is glaring that it will never ever win a race. Our MDC-T stands well and truly in this picture, while our Zimbabwean people cry foul when ever they loose in elections and still nurse this dead opposition party.
ZANU-PF are an intelligent lot of mafia criminals who take time to study their opponents and use their mistakes to remain in power. They have systematically studied MDC-T known them well and used every bit of their weaknesses to their favour. Looking at the GNU, so many weaknesses were displayed by the MDC-T group and their leader, they wanted posh cars and status, their leader gladly ran to a ZANU-PF house which he still keeps to date, they displayed such tribalism against Ndebele community never expected. They supported the suppression of people like Welshman Ncube and raised no questions as Mugabe ignored him, they brought in not one difference except investors having hope that they will force reforms poured in money they surely lost, they failed to bring into effect even one reform.
The MDC-T went into bed, and became contemptuous believing that their mere presence in the GNU which made things appear to change, would make them win the elections. Their talk became careless, their weaknesses became even more visible to Mugabe's criminals who were ever waiting such opportunities. Tswangirai even went on to tell other parties to join his or be left out, his obscene contempt and unwillingness to see the pit he was going into cost not only the MDC-T, but the country of its valuable opportunity to get rid of the tyranny who we are today saddled with. A country run by a 91year old!!! Sadly some of our opposition parties still believe those above 60 can and should be put forward for elections who are likely to retire at over 90!!! Cry our beloved country, when do the young take over to get us out of the 50s and 60s politics and tendencies mafia thought out and driven?
