The prayerful Robert Mugabe or the dreamer? Nomatter how you look at it, either way he has fallen. @Pic by Archives2015
As tee-total and abstemious human beings, the manner we perceive is dependent on the perspective used whilst observing. Whether it is Robert Mugabe the Dreamer, or Robert Mugabe the prayerful one, or as the one who has fallen depends on the degree of sobriety in the subject. Robert Mugabe has a dream for Zimbabwe and never ceases to pray for it day and night! But the truth of the matter is that either way, literally and actually, Robert Mugabe has fallen.
It is crystal that those who throw stones whilst residing in goblet houses are never of sound and sober senses. Only the selected few in Zanu Pf whom the demonic legion has entered and occupied their faculties; Only those who have a psychosomatic degeneration take part in such.
Over the years Zanu Pf has taken to employ full time scribes whose term of office and terms and conditions is to soil the name and personality of President Morgan Tsvangirai. The government has taken the warfare to greater heights in attempts to tarnish the people's choice by dotting the government owned media with claptrap and twaddle about Morgan Tsvangirai. What Zanu Pf seems to forget is that its own is guilty of more damaging actions.
It is sad that Zanu Pf has written the name of their lifetime elderly president Robert Mugabe as a man of integrity. This is a travesty of justice to English as language. It should be an offence punishable by hanging to print or speak about Robert Mugabe and Zanu Pf and immediately have integrity as a predecessor. Robert Mugabe was never a man of integrity and he is absolutely nothing but, a man who went under his wife's deathbed and played ‘let-me-hide-my-sausage-in-your-honey-pot with his secretary.
And of course it was in a such horizontal position with her former boss that she attained a doctorate in fifty-one days and twelve hours. After being academically excluded at a British university, she attained a tertiary qualification in Mandarin, a Chinese native language. Trusting Dr. Grace Mugabe based on her academic capabilities is like trusting a dentist without teeth or having a minister of home affairs being deported. It is just impossible.
It is common knowledge that the bulk of Robert Mugabe's young and old crop of lieutenants have brotherhood-tendancies-of-Cannan-Banana! Oh well, rather him and his secretary than the appointment of Oppah-Chamu-Zvipange-Muchinguri as Minister of Education who happen to be a first grade drop out!
Such dubious actions by Robert Mugabe were cheap and futile attempts to rekindle the old guerrilla love-fare. There was no intention of transforming the education system of Zimbabwe. What does she know about homework and corrections? How do we expect to improve our education system in Zimbabwe when the ministry is headed by a pre-school drop out?
Unlike Father Zimbabwe Joshua M.N. Nkomo who showered us with fatherly love, Robert Mugabe has depleted all the resources that Zimbabwe possibly had. In no way does Robert Mugabe deserve to be trusted by Zimbabweans as he is neither a man of integrity, nor an upholder of the law. Robert Mugabe has supported exploitation of the national resources for the benefit of the elites.
Such Robertic behaviour is typical in irresponsible men and fathers who never come home after pay day, those fathers who buy rounds for everyone in the club and practice carnivore tendencies by feasting on braai-ed meat yet at home the wife and kids are perennial herbivores. This behaviour has been inherited by Zimbabweans in South Africa who have turned into gamblers at Superbet outlets. Sad indeed.
Lest we forget that in as many months ago a report by the Parliamentary portfolio committee on natural resources and tourism discovered that the allocation of indigenous beneficiaries in the Save Valley Conservancy had been done through unscrupulous means. Those who benefited were comrades with suma-cum-laudes in corruption that included the likes of comrade Shuvai Mahofa, comrade-cum-Governor T. Maluleke, comrade Senator Hungwe, comrade Army General Engelbert Rugeje and the now demised comrade Stanley Mudenge, was not based on business principles.
The abovementioned beneficiaries were simply imposed notwithstanding assurances from the Ministry of Youth Development, Indigenisation and Empowerment that there was a transparent system in place to identify indigenous partners through the ZIA's Independent Board using the databases for both foreign and local investors.
To Zanu Pf we ask what and where is the integrity that it claims to uphold? Are these not individuals and are they not party faithfuls benefiting because of the political allegiance? Did I say Zanu Pf faithfools? Yes I just did! Zanu Pf has shown that it can not to be trusted period. The old have always said that, like all things with a beginning this too shall come to pass.
Zanu Pf is so close to the microphone that it waffles on about every political party having a very unfortunate moment after which things are never quite the same again. As for Zanu PF, that moment came when it failed to properly tackle the economic challenges of the early 2000s and again the divisive succession debacle which claimed Joyce Mujuru and her cronies.
What an anti-climax! Zanu Pf has repeatedly and conveniently feigned amnesia on the genocide in Matebeleland and the Midlands code named Gukurahundi. The type of political violence unleashed by Robert Mugabe and Zanu Pf handlers at every election is disturbing to the last degree. The Gukurahundi genocide is the climax of the violence and helps to show how merciless Zanu Pf is. It started unleashing violence from the times of ZAPU, ZUM, ZANU Ndonga, MDC-T and anyone with a different political view.
Zanu Pf has degrees in election rigging and that is the edge that it has. Its evergreen rampant corruption and the opaque agrarian reform all sums up on how those in power have ceased to care for the people, but for their stomachs only.
I was never married, but I know that cheating is an offence punishable by desertion or divorce, I have been there and I got the t-shirt. The cheating of Zanu Pf has manifested in failing to do anything ever since they cheated into power.
What bothers me is that even up to now, after as many elections as possible, no one outside of Zanu Pf has the know how when it comes to the technical-mechanical-tooth-fairy-now-you-see-me-now-you-don't rigging methods used and implemented by it. For Zanu Pf, as long as their offshore Swiss bank accounts benefit from the blood diamonds, the ruling party will never give a dime about the citizens.
The sad reality right now is that the opposition has been engraved in hedonism by some forces from within who are on a Zanu Pf pay roll. From Zambezi to Cape Town via Johannesburg, Zanu Pf has been greasing the hands of opposition party members with the green leaves to divert the winds of change. There are a few of anti-change winds within political leadership of the change-party and that is acting at the expense of those who are sold out for change. It is never easy to sail against the wind, let alone swim across the current and gradient.
The writing is on the wall and it probably is high time that those who are stalling change be exposed. Daniel is upon us and he has interpreted the writing on the wall. If Zanu Pf did it for its own reasons, why can't the sell outs from the MDC-T be exposed? Let the games begin! Without fear, favour or prejudice, divisive camps and personality under hand politicians must and should be exposed.
Anyways as common knowledge, the nation has suffered long and hard. There is no more fair play and even-handedness for the masses. Everyone has been pushed to the edge and taken advantage of. Just imagine the street kids who are now street fathers and mothers and soon to be street grandparents if not already have also not been spared as they have been employed to be hooligans for Zanu Pf. They have been forced to work for Zanu Pf for a packet of drugs and beer.
Everything that Zanu Pf touches has failed. A failed health delivery system claiming thousands of lives per week and an ever dropping education standard has been the order of the day. The standard of potholes is just out of this world, and not to be forgotten is the sea of sewage all over the country. All these unfortunate and unprecedented developments have happened under Zanu Pf's watch.
Under Mugabe the nation has been promised heaven on earth, but all the nation has received thus far is a spiced up taste of hell. This is too much cataclysm about nothing. It must be put on record that a resolution endorsing a cabbage in the form, manner and state of Robert Mugabe as a competent leader of Zimbabwe smells and smacks of desperate juvenile exuberance. This is possibly the most nauseating sordid and disgusting decision in the history of Zimbabwe.
Zanu Pf has dangled a carrot to influence the sane and hungry to drive poppycock messages about Zanu Pf and indulge in sickening acts of treachery defending the indefensible.
Enough is enough. Zimbabwe must be free. Let the real Zimbabweans stand up and occupy their rightful positions. Change demands action. If ever we as Zimbabweans get tired of no service delivery, we will do the right thing. Change is claimed by those who are thirsty for it. Power will never be transferred on a silver platter.
Yes we can. The MDC-T is pregnant with solutions to the Zimbabwean crisis. In 2008 change was seen, and the MDC-T saved the day. The future of Zimbabwe is with President Morgan Tsvangirai.
With MDC-T Yes we can. Together we can. United we can. A new constitutionalism for devolution and development, Equal opportunities for all! Morgan Tsvangirai is the future and hope of Zimbabwe.
