They were hoping for a political marriage to Mujuru and she and her people's knowledge of Zanu PF vote rigging will stop the latter rigging elections. Now it turns out that she has picked up nothing after all her years in power showing that she was not really as great a political catch as they thought.<br /><br />The big tragedy here is the nation is being dragged into yet another election with no democratic reforms in place and those who should be leading in this process are again gambling the nation's future.Zimbabwe Lighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16660690160173744190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4779437748296704455.post-70128708374112805162016-02-24T14:20:39.554-08:002016-02-24T14:20:39.554-08:00When Didymus Mutasa accused Patrick Chinamasa of v...When Didymus Mutasa accused Patrick Chinamasa of vote rigging in the 2013 elections MDC leaders' ears pricked up like Kudu's. The thing is what ever Mutasa had picked up during that election one has to ask why MDC candidates up and down the country had failed to come up with anything. <br /><br />It was election observers who noted that nearly one million voters had been denied the vote because their names were not in the voters roll. It was observers too who had picked up the unusually big number of polling station that few people were aware of, etc. The opposition politicians themselves picked very little or nothing! <br /><br />Not that MDC have known what to do with any evidence of vote rigging. They have threaten to take up the evidence to court and challenge the result but more often than not they have always chicken out the last minute. <br /><br />Leaders like Biti and Tsvangirai are free loaders, they were hoping to get back into power on the work of Mai Mujuru and the fact that she has turned out to be a free loader too has been a shock for them!Zimbabwe Lighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16660690160173744190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4779437748296704455.post-80440282389470540302016-02-24T08:18:35.161-08:002016-02-24T08:18:35.161-08:00I can understand people like Mafume and Obert Gutu...I can understand people like Mafume and Obert Gutu's anger and frustration with Mai Mujuru's failure to give them the details of how Zanu PF rigged the last elections. These opposition leaders were contesting candidates in the July 2013. They are the ones who maintain the elections were rigged but have failed to say how. The evidence of the rigging is all there, the bussed voters, failure to release the voters roll (the smoking gun) etc. these MDC leaders have not been smart enough to see it. <br /><br />The opposition was hoping that Mai Mujuru will provide them with the evidence of vote rigging they were not smart enough to see for themselves and, better still, provide the smart people to stop Zanu PF rigging the next elections. It turns out that Mai Mujuru and her ZPF friends are as dum as Tsvangirai and company. Drawing a blank from her means the opposition are no wiser at stopping Zanu PF rigging the next elections than they were in 2013!<br /><br />Anyone who even mentions Mai Mujuru of ZPF in Harvest House for the next week risks being man-handled out of the building as happened to Elton Mangoma. The knowledge that she is just as dum as MDC cadres has reminded them all just how hopeless their situation is, no wonder everyone is on edge!<br /><br />"There is no value if they were also innocent beneficiaries because they will simply become victims now," said Jacob Mafume.<br /> <br />There was no note of welcome in that, rather the opposite! The MDC cannot wait for the day ZPF members will be tear-gassed and beaten by the regime! <br />Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03002527980821483437noreply@blogger.com
