Mugabe exit, How Zimbabwean police and army will help Zimbabweans in August
16 Jun 2016 at 22:53hrs | Views
Each and every Policeman and Army Officer who serves in Zimbabwe is a son and a daughter to a Zimbabwean mother. Zimbabwe does not import Police and soldiers from other countries. We sleep in the same womb, eat in the same plate, use the same hospital, road, banks and shops. Regardless of National anger directed to those who use the Police to continue to maintain increasing hardship which affects everyone, Zimbabweans still believe in the Police and the Army.
The National Project, to help President Mugabe to take pension will need all Zimbabweans, the Police and Army included. Helping the President to take leave will be a job well done if no single drop of blood is lost in the process. Everyone, including people in Zanu PF and including 90% of the Police and Army, know that the President cannot germinate new ideas to bring any change that will bring any better to anyone in Zimbabwe now.
The Army, the Police and every Zimbabwean knows very well that no one in Zimbabwe can co-ordinate the Nation in Unison to help our President retire. Inside the heart of every Policeman and military man, there is a suppressed voice which asks, "When is the President announcing his exit". At the same time, every Zimbabwean, including the Police, the Army, Mnangagwa, Mujuru or any Zimbabwean, have found out the truth that our President is not the kind of a man who will cede leadership to liberate our country from oblivion.
Joice Mujuru, a Zanu Patriot who killed for Zanu tried to help the President to go.
Emmerson Mnangagwa who spent his life protecting the President, tried to help the President to retire.
Zimbabweans thought Democracy as a civilised tool to vote out the President and install Tsvangirai would work, but the President is clearly incapable to retire in his own accord.
It is interesting that we are all Zimbabweans. We face people, even at family level, who cannot admit failure and will never willingly cede the failing positions they hold until pushed by loving family members. We know of so many fellow Zimbabweans who find it embarrassing to admit failure even if denial can result in death. Unfortunately we all had faith that our President, as a highly educated man, would be the first to realise when such a time has come that he is no longer productive.
Mostly, educated people do things in a way that puzzles many. They acknowledge and teach that every organism and machine suffers from a natural phenomenon of fatigue. President Mugabe, with his level of education, even at this old age, will not accept to be flown to Singapore by a 92 year old highly experienced pilot. The President is not foolish. His drivers, cooks, guards and even, controversially his wife, are young people within the acceptable working class.
So, it is definitely not a bad thing to wish the President to go, with all the decline of economy, infrastructure and systems clear for all in Zimbabwe.
When our President was 36 years old, he joined millions of Zimbabweans who tried to tell the Government of Rhodesia to accept Democratic voting to help alleviate the diabolic system of racism. There was a sitting Prime minister in Rhodesia who was protected by Law, Police, Army and Governmental Institutions. But, for the love of his country, our youthful Robert Mugabe pushed for the Prime minister to step down for failing to address issues of racism which made other Rhodesians less human. Prime Minister Ian Smith is famous for saying "it will take a thousand years for Rhodesia to be ruled by a black man". Ian Smith had Police as Mugabe has today. Smith's Police intrinsically knew that Smith was guilty of failing to infuse into the brain neurons of the oppressed African man and feel how he was feeling.
The traversing of our country from Rhodesia to Zimbabwe happened even when Smith's Army and Police were carrying weapons. When THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN, nothing that is impossible can hold its position. Even before worrying about Smith, in Mozambique 1976, the leadership of Ndabaningi Sithole had lost ability to effect objectivity. Sithole had begun to forget the mandate and job the people had given him to lead effectively, and was spending time in America leaving guerrillas standed in a state of oblivion. Mugabe took over.
It is therefor a National Project on the 25 of August 2016, for every Zimbabwean in any position, to help the people take President Mugabe to a safe house in Gweru and take back our country.
Our New Zimbabwe will need the Police, the Army, and all existing Governmental Institutions of Civilisation just as we needed them at independence in 1980. In 1980, we proved to Ian Smith that the gun does not lead Zimbabwe, people do. In 1980, we proved beyond doubt that the WORD of the people of Zimbabwe stands firmer than any mortal human being. Smith feared that we would kill him but he forgot that we are Zimbabwean. We are Zimbabwean and we are not Libyans or Iraqis. Our way of doing things is such that we would not want to carry a life-long identity to be internationally known as people who lynched their President like Romanians, Libyans and Iraqi.
The hand of a Zimbabwean, helping another Zimbabwean, to achieve that which benefits us all, is a patriotic hand. In reality, each one of us came into this World with the help of a midwife. The midwives who pulled each one of us out of our mother's womb had just eaten Sadza that had been produced by another patriotic Zimbabwean whose job was to keep the country nourished. From the midwife came a nurse who wrapped us in warm towel when our mother was still being taken care of by other nurses. At School, we found a teacher, waiting to teach and show us how to interact and later own become oiled tools who are fit to defend and rescue this country for ever. President Mugabe and Ian Smith went through the same cycle which cannot be stopped and that is why the WORD of the people is supreme.
No one is allowed to ask the President to go. The Police will arrest that person the same way Ian Smith Police were told to do. But, to say no one does not mean even the WORD of the people cannot prevail. The Army and the Police, should follow the direction of the WORD of the people on the 25th of August 2016.
The WORD of the people cannot be wrong, it is always correct. It is not possible for anyone to co-ordinate Zimbabweans to bring them to this Unison state of once per lifetime opportunity except the WORD. The Scriptures teach us that all materials or matter that fills the World was created by the WORD of God. The WORD has more power to co-ordinate atoms and make materials and the WORD of God teaches us to use the WORD to move mountains.
A big mountain cannot move itself and yet it uses the Police and Army to remain intact and obscure our success as a Nation. The scriptures promise that the WORD only can move that mountain and please do not let any evil force give you a different word that the mandated WORD of the people of Zimbabwe.
The people no longer want anything that divides Zimbabweans into the wanted and unwanted, the "my" and the "their". The people of Zimbabwe no longer want to be told that so and so has been give a tender for $200 Million Dollars while the perpetual "their" will never be Zimbabwean enough to deserve a tender.
A mere Police Officer needs to earn money enough to fend for his family as much as any Zimbabwean. If Companies close everyday and some are given nepotismnically to people who later shut them down, where is the Government going to get the money to pay a Policeman in the next two years? Foolishness makes us fail to see the interdependency of systems which prosper a country. We need a new system of leadership which is does not come from one corrupt individual, but one that fears the WORD of the Nation.
Please Police and Army, stand on the side of the people on the 25th of August 2016 as we come to Harare to take President Mugabe to his retirement home in Mambo. Be the Heros of Zimbabwe. Go into Zimbabwean history as a Police and army who turned to become the Herbert Chitepo, the Joshua Nkomo, the Robert Mugabe, the Josia Tongogara, the Solomon Mujuru, the Dumiso Dabengwa, the Nikita Mangena, the Edga Tekere, the Lookout Masuku, the Simon Muzenda, the Jaison Ziyaphapha Moyo.
Please Police and Army, be our bloodless liberators and carry the indelible Hero tittles of the Nikita Mangena, the Chikerema, Edison Zvobgo, Malunga, Hananda, and many Heros who helped end Colonial Racism in a hope that our infrastructure by year 2016 would be like that of Botswana. Working roads, growing economy, improving standard of living, exponential salaries, increasing confidence, dynamic National Unity, soundy institutions, quality Health care, World Class Education System, Competent Judiciary, Rehabilitative modern Prisons.
Please Police and Army, on the 25th of August 2016, help Zimbabweans bring about a new system of customer service, a trusted and loved well paid Police-force, a happy and well equipped and well paid military, Futuristic Industry, Competent road and Transport infrastructure.
To the Army and Police of Zimbabwe, please on the 25th of August 2016, stand with the people to fulfil the real dream of Zimbabwe. To reinvent the country we always needed to be, a country which does not export the wealth of its citizens. A country which is emulated by all in the World, a peaceful, solutionful, rare, a country to be proud of, a productive country.
If we work together in Unison, in the morning of the 26th of August 2016, stranger will be hugging stranger. The full potential of Zimbabwe will be unleashed. You October Salary 2016 Salary above $1 400.00 per month will be paid by a new National Administration where no one but all Zimbabweans will be bosses of our country. There is $3,4 Billion ready to guarantee your pay and all the civil servants. But, the WORD is honest. The people's WORD is honest and do not say you have not been told this because this text will be there as a witness, "YOU WILL BE EXCUSED FROM CIVIL SERVICE IF YOU ACT CORROPTLY AFTER THE 25TH OF AUGUST 2016". Again, it must be said now that current Military and Army and Intelligence bosses will cede office on the 25th of August 2016. The two Deputy Presidents and their Boss will lose their jobs on the 25th of August 2016. No one should be harmed by anyone on this day. Anyone whose action will harm a Zimbabwean in defence of the outgoing, will not see the magnificent sky of New Zimbabwe outside jail.
Your October Salary will come from our National Pocket which is outside the shows of Zimbabwe. If you remember the story of Frozen Zimbabwean Asserts, they will unfreeze in September after New Independence. You too, as respected Zimbabwean Army and Police Officers will be able to take your wives to South Africa, France or Canada, not to seek jobs or asylum, but to take them for Holiday.
A Zimbabwean who has a long future, has to work with a Zimbabwean who has a long future, to uplift the long future of Zimbabwe and stop delving with those who have no future.
