Evan Mawarire jumps from Rugs to Riches overnight!

The Evan Mawarire saga is the tale of a poor man that jump-strides from rugs to riches all of a sudden in an innovative action packed fashion. One is forced to believe that he is a pragmatic psychology expert that can tactfully manipulate human mind to rally behind his covert goals for his personal benefit.

Evan managed to achieve his vision expeditiously within the record shortest period before all band-wagonists who rallied behind his trademark, #This Flag, could realise that they were exploited in a foolery manner as conduit pipes to his earthly paradise.

The pseudo pastor was leading a miserable poverty stricken life-style which is synonymous with the biblical Lazarus who ate bread crumbs from tables of the rich men. Evan declared his pauperist status when he pronounced publicly that he was a failing father who lost self-esteem after he could hardly satisfy his fatherly responsibility of paying fees for his two daughters.

This is a clear-cut testimony of a reckless father that cannot meet the elementary responsibilities of a normal modern day dad that is expected to work hard to fend for his family like any other in the country, in spite all odds.

However, the inventive Evan was so crafty in his personal problem-solving plan to extricate himself out of his financial predicament. He hatched the clandestine project dubbed, #This Flag which he popularly glorified as a gimmick to represent almost every Zimbabwean. He managed to arrest and command an amazingly big followership instantly which assisted him to gain media-hype which facilitated his extensive publicity both on social media and main-stream media.

He gained local and international fame over-night to the best of his personal glory that he is still riding upon till this day. As soon as he recognised he had gained sufficient fame which could permit his acceptance outside the country, he sneaked out of the country where he successfully managed to short-circuit and convince the international community that his life was in danger.

The same skill he used to deceive his now dumped Zimbabwean followership is the same tact he utilised to mislead the gullible members of the international community to put him into comfort zone. Now Evan is leading flamboyant life-style tapping on the benefits of his so called self-exile. He is now assured of the daily three-course meals that he could not afford for his family while he was local.

What is next for all of us that he used as stepping stones to his new haven? Really, it was so frustrating to listen to him this week when he visited the Studio 7 Headquarters, in Washington DC, where he was bragging over his latest life vision without even mentioning or acknowledging us all for propping him up to that height.

God can see this #Evan Mawarire lively, and I say the judgement day is coming for such deceitful personalities to pay for their sins of exploiting us for their personal aggrandisement.

This is a real life lesson for me and my fellow countrymen that some people in the name of pushing for economic emancipation with covert personal agendas, are riding on us to their respective destinations of glory. All I need is to work for myself, and lead my own life quietly, lest I become a successive victim of the political hullaballoo for no apparent reason while I languish in poverty.
