After 37 years of being cheated and bamboozled one would think the likes of Mnangagwa and the rest of the Zanu PF subservient concubines would be wise enough to put an end to all this charade. But alas the goons as still being mesmerised and baffled like rabbits caught in the flood lights! <br /><br />Mugabe is calling to the end of factionalism in the party although what he really means is he wants the Mnangagwa faction to be dismantled and disbanded whilst it is full steam ahead with his G40 project. What everyone else wants to see happen in the party is of no consequence to him the only thing he cares about is what he and his wife Grace wants! <br /><br />After years of using the war veterans and making them feel they were very important in the country, when they did his dirty bidding. Now they have dare express an opinion contrary to his selfish plan, he is shuffling them to one side in favour of the youths who have shown an equally blind zeal to do his dirty bidding. <br /><br />It is one thing Mugabe imposing his tyrannical will on his party, it is quite another to let him do the same with the nation. We must continue demanding the implementation of democratic reforms and never tire!<br />Zimbabwe Lighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16660690160173744190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4779437748296704455.post-14800426959274389402017-06-18T06:21:10.748-07:002017-06-18T06:21:10.748-07:00Tsvangirai has already proven beyond doubt that he...Tsvangirai has already proven beyond doubt that he is corrupt and incompetent why anyone continues to follow such a man only goes to show how politically immature they are. A health and vibrant democracy demands a diligent and alert electorate who pay attention to detail. <br /><br />Tsvangirai was elected on a ticket to deliver democratic change and has been on the forefront of opposition politics for the last 17 years and yet he failed to deliver even one change. He has had many opportunities to deliver change but wasted them all. He is about to drag the nation into a totally meaningless election on the basis of the most stupid argument. BVR system will never stop Zanu Pf rigging the vote, that is a fact. Only a naïve and gullible electorate would believe the nonsense that it will!<br /><br />After the serious economic and political mess the country is in, one would expect the people of Zimbabwe to be paying a lot closer attention to what is happening to the country. If they are paying attention and are so easily fooled by this Tsvangirai nonsense then it is little wonder the country is in a mess! <br />Nomusa Garikaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04964205157943684601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4779437748296704455.post-49124491525191142412017-06-18T05:59:20.968-07:002017-06-18T05:59:20.968-07:00Contesting next year's elections with no refor...Contesting next year's elections with no reforms in place would be one of the dumbest things we have ever done - we have done many dumb things these last 37 years!Nomusa Garikaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04964205157943684601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4779437748296704455.post-41543876540301742452017-06-18T04:01:45.326-07:002017-06-18T04:01:45.326-07:00Zanu PF is repossessing farms giving to party loya...Zanu PF is repossessing farms giving to party loyalists who failed to put the farm into productive use so why not give the youths these farms instead of taking even more white owned farms? This is just greed gone mad!<br /><br />Chipanga would know all about "leafy Borrowdale" no doubt he has a house there all paid for by the party! Zanu PF is very good at rewarding the rabble rousers, njambanja, and does not care how much the lawlessness cost the nation at large.

PDP...ZEC abolish special vote for security sector.<br /><br />PDP spokesman Jacob Mafume said scrapping special votes “removes the element of intimidation”.<br /><br />“And it reduces the identification of a class of voters, voting depends on the secrecy of the vote and the more secret it is the better.”<br /><br />The trouble with our opposition politicians is that they are like hungry hyenas that are easily fooled. Throw at them fossil bone soaked in blood and they will fight over it! There is nothing wrong with the special vote, it is just a variation of the postal vote or vote for those in foreign countries. With the political will, there is no reason why the special vote should not be secret and above board. <br /><br />It is ZEC itself as it is presently constituted that needs scrapping as long as the commission is stuffed full of Zanu PF operatives there to ensure no-regime-change the elections will never be free, fair and credible. The opposition should be concerned about reforming ZEC and all the other state institutions and not waste time on trivial matters that change nothing.<br /><br />Jacob Mafume should tell us how all those deployed to man the elections are going to vote in their respective constitution and still be at their respective post somewhere else! He is just talking nonsense, as usual!<br />Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03002527980821483437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4779437748296704455.post-91247626447506430262017-06-18T02:57:09.713-07:002017-06-18T02:57:09.713-07:00President Mugabe has master the art of duplicity, ...President Mugabe has master the art of duplicity, he has castigated his political opponents for being puppets if they get any assistance from outsiders and yet he has been getting help from outsiders ranging from business gurus like Tiny Rowland of Lonrho, Nikuv and the Chinese. He paid Nikuv US$ 10 million to corrupt the voters roll sold the nation's diamonds and other resources for a song to raise money to bankroll his vote rigging schemes. MDC gets a few hundred thousand dollars donation for its election campaign and President Mugabe will go Bezek with rage. <br /><br />Last year President Mugabe bought cars for war veterans, in an effort to win them back after the fall out. If anyone else should try to do anything for the war veterans or anyone else Mugabe will accused them of bribery. When he bribes someone, it is all legal and above board but when others do it is corruption! <br /><br />All these Youth Interface rallies President Mugabe is holding there are nothing but a continuation of Grace Mugabe’s Meet the People rallies which started to ouster Joice Mujuru. Whilst G40 is campaigning the Lacoste faction is being forced to stay home or else will be accused of factionalism. <br /><br />President Mugabe is a control freak. <br /><br />He can continue to toy around his Zanu PF goons what we must now allow him to do is do the same with the nation. We must insist of the implementation of all the democratic reforms and break his corrupting influence of state institutions such as ZEC, the Police, Judiciary, etc. Implement the reforms and Mugabe’s tyrannical control of the nation will end.Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03002527980821483437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4779437748296704455.post-20235211443935316472017-06-18T02:55:54.007-07:002017-06-18T02:55:54.007-07:00@Marallas

The party has the cars and buses and cash to hire even more buses to ferry its supporters from every corner of the province.<br /><br />If Zanu Pf is so popular then why is the regime refusing to implement the reforms so elections are free, fair and credible?<br />Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03002527980821483437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4779437748296704455.post-88316901989865898312017-06-17T12:46:47.897-07:002017-06-17T12:46:47.897-07:00Robert Mugabe said plans to deliver prosperity to ...Robert Mugabe said plans to deliver prosperity to people in Manicaland through their diamond wealth were frustrated by ousted mining Chinese firms with whom he said he was still “upset” because they “duped him”.<br /><br />The Chinese were able to “dupe” Mugabe only because corruption was rampant.
