MDC-T in shadow politicking

Perhaps it's high time the MDC-T rebrands from being a movement to a revolution as time lapsed so far is speaking volumes of another biblical exodus towards the idea of changing the face of democracy in Zimbabwe which is already thriving under the present political dispensation.

Tsvangirai can thus play Moses in this new arrangement and ensure that he will lead the perceived legion of his supporters to death. Indeed if it was a movement then we could be seeing tact changing and a lot more new faces trying their chances and luck.

One thing people should understand is that Tsvangirai has reached his pinnacle as far as being a leader is concerned. The man's vision is full of shadows which he keeps mistaking as dawning of a new era. Call it democracy but living the dream of one man is nowhere near appealing.

Indications at hand as many would be having it now are that maybe not enough feasibility researches were done on this project after all. Instead of creating a responsible and loyal opposition, a dictator was born to the disappointment of the expectant West. Apparently there wasn't much to oppose hence the unceremonious collapse of the idea altogether.

They say whatever is begun in anger usually ends in shame.

Recently, MDC-T leader Morgan Tsvangirai came out guns blazing hinting that he was aware some of his lieutenants were plotting his oust. This shouldn't come as a shocker to the embattled Tsvangirai since he has failed to deliver on his promises made since the last two decades. Apparently his handlers have also grown weary of his political barrenness.  

They are now financially starving the opposition leader who has since resorted to feeding from his dwindling support base. In spite this clear demonstration of dying confidence in him, Tsvangirai has the guts to go on off balance.

Adding injury to the insult, Nelson Chamisa had to spit venom on the troubled leader who for now cannot trust even his shadow, contributing to his boss's suspicion of an internal coup as hallucination. Chamisa is one character that has refused to be buried by Tsvangirai and in this case is playing the shadow which is keeping Tsvangirai on his toes with eyes wide open.

Thinking deep on the developments in MDC-T which are not new anyway; the epicentre of the brainstorm was the question why don't these chaps change game plan for once? It is given that foolishness is the repetition of the same tact regardless of the poor results.

In this case people could have been choosing foolishness but are wise enough to be taken in which Tsvangirai and his cronies are not prudent enough to recognize right under their nose. Hopefully, this time around the axe falls on Tsvangirai's neck. All people cannot be wrong in Tsvangirai's eyes, from the old Mangoma to the Chamisa age group. The buck has to stop somewhere.

Given the chance to make a diagnosis on MDC-T one would authoritatively posit that it has been marred by personal egos and eventually prescribe anti complacency doses which might help them get in touch with reality and accept fate as it comes.

The Tsvangirai camp is docile to the notion that people simply want change more than the sense that should define the transition.  The notion being ZANU PF has messed with West hence the electorate will vote even a donkey rather than Zanu pf. Ironically, the assumption holds water in the case of the MDC-T; people simply want a change from Morgan Tsvangirai to whatever donkey available in MDC-T hence the splinters that characterize the political establishment.
