Deluded Zimbabwean politician preoccupied in vanity while own baby drowns

The Politician was hosting very important overseas visitors who had a potential to invest US93 Billion by Zimbabwe in 2017. The politician's six year old daughter ran straight into the meeting room disrupting the attention of important visitors and said to her mother "he's making bubbles Mummy!" without even getting the message from the tiny child, the mother dismissively replied "l will speak to you later get out NOW!"
The investment meeting went on very well, of cause with calculated misinterpretation of fine detail, since the visitors were Chinese.
Very important documents were signed and everything was a indication of an impending National Transformation.
After the meeting, as per African culture, the Politian walked the visitors to the paved parking treading softly past a mind catching garden of best Zimbabwean Colonial roses.
The convoy of dignitaries pulled off and the highly excited Minister walked back to the house aiming to immediately call and update the President of the potential break through. One on which the President would harvest 60% of the gains as personal wealth and the hard working Minister would net 10% of US93Billion while Zimbabwe would suffer with 30% which includes risks.
As she was busy building that imaginative frame, the Minister noticed that her daughter Muchasvinura was looking very frightened with her tiny hands on the chest. She called her and asked, "Where is Tirimbwende?" Muchasvinura replied, "He's now floating Mummy!"
The honourable Politician did not believe that her only four year old son had drowned. She tore her clothes and wriggled undressed on the pavement crying with no attempt of contrived sophistication.
Neighbours came running finding an old woman naked, crying loud and banging her head on the pavement in her birthday suit.
All her known fame, wealth, sophistication and deep privacy were ajar. In her sitting room, there was a bag full of millions of unbanked cash and an assortment of automatic guns. The CCTV was operational and was capturing everything including nudity.
Neighbours, some of whom had never had a chance even to greet the famous Politician, spontaneously gave themselves the job to bathe the soiled Politician and help her to accept and re-gain her usual contrived sophistication. Unfortunately, Tirimbwende was dead and nothing could bring him back.
This analogy best describes Zimbabwean Politicians who, after many years of mis-focus, suddenly claim to gain consciousness the moment they are kicked out of the looting regime of Mugabe. Joyce Mujuru recently told the Aljezeera that she is sorry that she was so busy with important Government issues for ten years and she did not see how Zimbabwe drowned into massacres and poverty until she lost the lucrative job. She still wants me to trust that she will do things better this time around as a leader of ZiPF.
Mujuru is not the only one who woke up from fantasy only to find out that her contribution as a Zanu Politician was a disservice to the people of Zimbabwe.
Dydimus Mutasa exhibits the same awakening. Rugare Gumbo, Mutambara, Tekere, Nkala, Msipa, Jabulani Sibanda, Mutswangwa, Dongo and many others, have a case to answer for Crimes Against The People of Zimbabwe. Those who have not been kicked out yet, like Mnangambwa, Kasviruwere and Jonathan Moyo still cling on a system which benefits their PERSONAL WANTS and not National NEEDS.
Its too late now to recycle vomits like Mujuru and try to make Pizza out of sour vomits. If we, as a Nation, want to enjoy Pizza, we use fresh products to make real Pizza. Pizza made out of vomits by use of sophisticated technology can only be fed to dogs. It doesn't matter magnificently you try to wrap and spice vomit Pizza, if it's made out of vomits, we won't eat that in Zimbabwe even in our hungry state. Please go and advertise your vomit Pizza to my dog Gingher. Gingher does not think, he eats anything without questioning the details of ingredients.
Suka lapha!
