“Chamisa has a solid plan!” read the Bulawayo 24 headline!
If each one of Chamisa’s “solid plans” was a brick then one would have built by now a pyramid of solid brick ten kilometres square and ten kilometres high! Higher than Mount Everest!
“Behind the scenes, SADC is reportedly deeply involved in addressing the post-election crisis in Zimbabwe through diplomatic efforts, as the crisis has divided both the nation and the region, drawing international attention,” continued the report.
“Chamisa, in a post on X formerly Twitter, suggested that CCC was making diplomatic progress and had temporarily set aside a court challenge in favour of pursuing change through negotiations.
"A new hope for Zimbabwe…Fellow citizens, your victory cannot be denied or delayed. It is sealed and guaranteed. The season of the new is upon us. Zimbabwe shall be known as a blessed nation with a delightful and great people! #Godisinit Joel 2:12-29 Blessed Sabbath," Chamisa posted on Saturday.
"When you know the full script, you don't panic! It will all end in unprecedented joy and celebration! We have a solid plan, not on their terms but on our terms! And they know it!"
Chamisa has “a solid plan and God is in it!” Yeah right!
Do not bother to ask what is the plan because even he does not know the plan.
He does not know the plan; so how does he know it is solid? It is all part and parcel of all that “God is in it!” spiritualism and “strategic ambiguity” mysticism stuff!
As for all these Biblical verses; any one, even the Devil himself, can quote from the Holy Bible. Only village idiots are bowled over and fooled by the quotations and mirage promises again and again and again.
Chamisa has completely abandoned the Court Challenge of the 23 August 2023 elections results; not temporary (he had a week from the 28 August to file his challenge and so has missed the deadline); because he did not have all the V11 forms to back his claim of winning the elections. The solid plan to win big was just a lie.
Zimbabweans are banking their hopes for change on SADC and AU standing firm behind their respective election observer teams’ reports that dismissed the 23 August 2023 elections as a sham that could not produce a legitimate result. This Mnangagwa Zanu PF government is illegitimate and must step down to allow the formation of an interim administration.
The primary task of this interim administration must be to implement the democratic reforms and end this curse of rigged elections and bad governance. This was the number one task of the 2008 to 2013 GNU too but, as we know, failed to implement even one reforms hence the reason we are still having rigged elections.
Chamisa’s solid plan is to muscle in and claim SADC are carrying out HIS plan and he wants to lead the new GNU. He has hit the ground running mobilising his own base in Zimbabwe and abroad and lobbying the SADC leaders.
Zimbabwe wasted the opportunity to implement the democratic reforms created in the last GNU, the nation cannot afford to waste the second opportunity this new GNU is creating by appointing individuals we already know will never implement ALL the reforms. Both Zanu PF and CCC failed to implement even one reform last time, it is naive, to say the least, to think they will do so now.
Zimbabwe is in this political and economic mess because Zanu PF and CCC leaders have betrayed the nation by imposing this corrupt and dysfunctional system of government these last 43 and 23 years respectively. They had the chance to redeem themselves by implementing the reforms during the last GNU; they failed to implement even one reform. If that does NOT disqualify Zanu PF and CCC leaders from playing any role in the new GNU then I don’t what will!
Both Zanu PF and CCC will do everything in their power to make sure they play leading roles in the new GNU. It is for the people of Zimbabwe to stand up and firmly reject those all attempts to hold the nation to ransom!
Chamisa's solid plan is no different from Zanu PF's vision 2030. They are all mirages, not clearly defined and forever out of rich!

The issue here is the both Zanu PF and CCC leaders are responsible for landing the nation in this mess, they are not just part of the problem they ARE the problem. And so they cannot be the solution too!
The nation has many other competent men and women who can implement the reforms and get the nation out of this mess. Let us find those men and women.
You just do not want CCC to be held to democratic account. You all never admit Chamisa and company sold out on reforms and in participating in flawed elections toggle Zanu PF legitimacy out of greed. You have your head in Chamisa’s backside and your brain is starved of oxygen you cannot think . That is your problem don’t try to force others to follow your stupidity!
The idea that those who landed us into this mess should be allowed to lead in the GNU is the very epitome of stagnation and failure. Only some one who is blind as a mole would want the same buffoons who got us into this mess to remain in power. We need to turn over a new page!

The 2008 to 2013 GNU was one of the defining moments in Zimbabwe’s history especially as the time the nation had its best chance ever to end the Zanu PF dictatorship. Alas! The golden chance was wasted. There were many important lessons the nation should have learned from all this but it s clear no lessons were learned.
Here we are 15 years since the GNU and still there are many who still have no clue what the reforms are about even with the benefit of hindsight. Worse still, the ignoramus have the cheek to dictate to all on matters they have no clue what they are talking about.
If the primary task of the new GNU is to implement reforms; what hope is there that Zanu PF and CCC will implement any reforms since they failed to implement even one token reform during the 2008 to 2013 GNU?
You clearly do not know anything about reforms, GNU, etc. Why don’t you shut your trap and listen!
Well lets hope those with ears will hear! Those in the habit of making outrageous claims of "God is in it!" will stop. And those in the habit of believing such nonsensical claims will now stop being so gullible!
ReplyDeleteSo you think MDC/CCC have been trying to change Zanu PF by selling out on reforms and participating in flawed elections to give Zanu PF legitimacy out of greed. What has been happening here is Chamisa and company have been taking advantage of the naive and gullible voters and their desperation for change to sell out. MDC/CCC have failed to bring about even one token change in 23 years and many out there have not even noticed it! Indeed anyone who dare point out that CCC are running with the povo hare and hunting with the Zanu PF hounds are attacked by povo (out of ignorance) by CCC and Zanu PF leaders (to protect the status quo).
ReplyDelete@ Vums
ReplyDeleteI said Chamisa was lying about plugging ALL the hopes to stop Zanu PF rigging the elections. Was that nonsense too?
The trouble is we have too many demagogues who have no respect for truth, facts and reality. Chamisa had no problem conning these idiots into believing he had winning in rigged elections strategies even after 43 years of Zanu PF mafiosi rigging elections!
FCUK me! No wonder Zimbabwe is a failed state, we have too many village idiots! No nation can ever thrive with so many village idiots and demagogues!
The truth is we are fighting Zanu PF tyranny and the opposition are busy copying and assimilating ready to be the next tyrants. That is Africa for you; yesterday’s liberators and today’s oppressors and today’s liberators are, in the case of CCC who cannot wait for tomorrow, are today’s oppressors too!

You want to construct a GNU with people who have never made a mistake, unovawana kupi vanhu ivavo?

MDC/CCC leaders have failed to implement even one token reform in 23 years including 5 years in the GNU. They have been participating in flawed elections; so flawed there was no verified voters’ roll, voters are frogmarched to vote, etc.; to give Zanu PF legitimacy out of greed. And you call that “A MISTAKE!”
Worse still, you want the same greed and incompetent individuals to be in the GNU whose primary task is to implement the same reforms they have failed to implement these last 23 years? And you consider yourself to be “smart Alec and wiser than King Solomon himself!” FCUK me!
The vote rigging shenanigans were revealed in the 2008 elections and that was why SADC and AU denied Zanu PF legitimacy and forced them to go into the GNU. The primary purpose of the GNU was to implement the democratic reforms so there will be no vote rigging and wanton violence in future. We have continued to have vote rigging and wanton violence precisely because MDC failed to implement even one reform during the GNU.
ReplyDeleteAre you saying MDC failed to implement even one token reform all these 23 years, including 5 in the GNU because they wanted Zanu PF to rig elections so SADC and AU can, once again, write an adverse report condemning the elections? Of all the foolish arguments to justify MDC/CCC’s treasonous betrayal on reforms this is one of the most foolish one.
So Zimbabwe could have implemented the reforms and the country transformed into a healthy and functioning democracy by 2013 at the latest. We forfeited that for the sake of letting Zanu PF rig elections and for SADC to report on the rigging.
There is to be a new GNU, I take it CCC will not implement even one token reform again for the purpose of SADC and AU reporting on the rigged elections in another 15 years from now! No wonder the country is a failed state we do have some seriously mentally retarded voters amongst us!

ReplyDelete“Everyday of your life you talk against voting for Chamisa and no one else.
You make sure Chamisa is not a credible presidential candidate, only chamisa.
Chamisa should say things and do it himself. When ED is winning, he won't be anywhere near the polling station except where he casted his vote.”
Don’t get big headed! By failing to implement even one meaningful reform and participating in these flawed elections it was not MDC/CCC who benefited the most. Zanu PF are the principle beneficiaries in all these blunders. The greatest losers in all this is the ordinary people like me and may be you - whose knows you might be one of the CCC leaders or better still Zanu PF ruling elite pretending to be a CCC supporter for the sake of encouraging CCC to continue propping up Zanu PF.
Chamisa is a corrupt and incompetent upstart and his track record speaks volumes. You do not see him for the utterly useless leader he is because you don’t have the intellect.
@ Gambia
ReplyDelete“Why don't those with better plans implement theirs than just wait for the so called futile plan.”
Zanu PF has rigged elections for the last 43 years, you might as well ask why have the people done nothing to stop the thugs rigging the elections.
Answer: they thought they had done something, they have risked all these last 23 years to vote MDC/CCC into power on the understanding they would implement the democratic reforms to stop the rigging. Even when MDC got the golden opportunity to implement the reforms during the 2008 to 2013 GNU, they have fail to get even one token reform implemented.
As if having a corrupt and incompetent MDC/CCC leaders was not bad enough the nation has had the misfortune in having an electorate that is naive and gullible. They have no clue what reforms the nation need to implement much less how they were supposed to be implemented. And so MDC/CCC leaders betrayals have gone unnoticed.
And so although MDC/CCC leaders sold out by failing to implement even one reform during the 2008 to 2013 GNU the wildebeest herd will happily appoint the same leaders together with the Zanu PF counter parts into the new GNU. Frankly the herd will be none the wiser if, once again not even one reform is implemented at the end of the GNU.
So the short and sweet answer to your question does those who can implement the reforms get it done? Because those is position to do it lack the will and ability and those who should be pushing for competent leaders have no clue those already in power are taking them for fools!
I actually I am NOT the manager nor supporter either of the crooks. Getting the substitutes is the easy part the difficult part is getting the brain dead supporters to accept that both Zanu PF and CCC sold out by failing to get even one reform implemented during the last GNU. As long as the crooks know their brain dead wildebeest herd will support them staying in the GNU of course they will want to stay.
ReplyDelete@ Munyoro
ReplyDeleteYou really are foolish.
I have advocated for the implementation of reforms so we can have free, fair and credible elections - the very thing Zanu PF does not want because the party knows they cannot win free and fair elections. If MDC has implemented the reforms Zimbabwe would be a healthy and functioning democratic nation right now. How anyone can say that is not in the national interest beggars belief.
The truth is you are one of those simple minded individual who believes everything Chamisa says and anyone who dares to differ must be an enemy of the people. Chamisa’s pathetic track record speaks for itself and by supporting him blindly it speaks volumes of you.
Both Zanu PF and CCC leaders were in the last government and therefore are responsible for the failure to ensure these elections were free, fair and credible. Of course, they are the problem and per se cannot be the solution too. Why anyone would be defending the proposition that either of these leaders should be in the GNU only underline why Zimbabwe is a failed state - we have too many people who don’t even have common sense!
BBC documentary on the growing threats of violence against foreigners in SA. This must be a remind to all Zimbabwe why we really need to do something to end Zimbabwe's failed state reality.
ReplyDeleteThe possibility of Zanu PF being forced by SADC to step down gives us the golden opportunity to implement the democratic reforms and finally end the curse of rigged elections and bad governance. We need to appoint men and women who will implement the reforms that is not negotiable.
The very suggestion that Zanu PF and CCC can be trusted with this important task can only come from one who has no clue what they are talking about nor of the dire consequence if this GNU fails to deliver democratic change.
Zanu PF does not want any reforms to dismantle the regime's de facto one-party state dictatorship has kept the regime in power all these last 43 years implemented. And the party’s role in the GNU would be to disrupt and undermine all reform implementations at every turn.
CCC could have implemented the reforms during the 2008 to 2013 GNU, they did not - that says it all.
Zanu PF and CCC cannot be in the new GNU - that is not negotiable.
South Africa is facing some serious economic challenges the economy has collapsed, unemployment has soared to over 30%, there is serious load shedding, drug abuse, etc., etc. and foreigners have become the scapegoat. The pressure on Zimbabwe to sort out our political and economic problems has never been more urgent than it is now.
ReplyDeleteWe need a GNU that will implement ALL the democratic reforms and get the country back on a democratic footing without failure. This means Zanu PF and CCC cannot be in the GNU, period! This is not negotiable!

ReplyDeleteWe are talking about holding free, fair and credible elections: are you saying the existence of sanction is a good excuse for denying Zimbabweans their right to a meaningful say in the governance of the country?
@ Bachpeneti
ReplyDelete“It’s you who is very stupid put your house in order first. Learn to leave those who are trying to do what is right.”
I said that CCC’s flagship winning in rigged election strategy of mass voter registration was died in the water based on the facts on the ground. As of May 2022 only 1/4 million new voters had registered according to ZEC’s own figures. This was 4% of CCC’s own set target of 6 million. You said I was talking rubbish.
You are not man enough to admit you were wrong. Indeed, instead of admitting you and your CCC friends misled the nation you now shooting from the hip blaming me for your incompetence. So now CCC did not win big, failed to stop Zanu PF rigging the elections, etc., etc. because Mukori did not get his house in order.
No wonder Zimbabwe is a failed state, we have some truly pathetic individual who are total brain dead. You cannot keep reason with them. They are always talking of trivial and irrelevant issues because they do not have the intellect to deal with the substantive issues. And, if not controlled, these village idiots will drag the whole nation into the gutter.
I am not interested in how well or badly your are running your family Bachipeneti. I never asked about that and will never ask, because it is irrelevant to the public affairs issues we are debating here. I know you are a man of little intellect but do you think you can confine yourself to issues of national interest and promote public debate and not stifle it.
CCC are a political party whose leaders have and holding public office and per se are accountable to the public regardless of whether the said public are members of CCC or not. This means parents like me whose family are not exemplary citizens like you and your family of nobilities too have the right to hold those in public office to account. This is not negotiable!
ReplyDeleteDid MDC/CCC have the chance to implement the democratic reforms to ensure free and fair elections? The answer is yes they did and they wasted it. You cannot keep talking about the 10m thick and 20 m high prison wall, the razor fence, etc. as the excuse why you have not escaped when you were given the get out of jail card and refuse to use it.
ReplyDeleteLeaders like David Coltart had admitted the opposition is participating in these flawed elections out of greed.
“The (2013) electoral process was so flawed, so illegal, that the only logical step was to withdraw, which would compel SADC to hold Zanu PF to account. But such was the distrust between the MDC-T and MDC-N that neither could withdraw for fear that the other would remain in the elections, winning seats and giving the process credibility,” confessed David Coltart in his Book, The Struggle Continues 50 years of Tyranny in Zimbabwe.
There it is in black and white! Just because you do not want to accept MDC/CCC are corrupt and incompetent for whatever reasons; does not change the reality on the ground.
Zimbabwe is a failed state and we need to implement the reforms to get out of this mess. We need people who will implement the reforms and I know CCC will not do it because they have already proven that they are corrupt and incompetent!
@ Mukanya
ReplyDeleteTrue! Zanu PF wanted the July 2013 elections to go ahead. The two MDC factions could have boycotted the elections, they did not because of greed as Coltart admitted in his book. Indeed it was the same greed that stop them implementing the reforms in the five years of the GNU.
You have no clue want the reforms are much less how they were supposed to be implemented during the GNU and hence have failed to grasp that MDC leaders sold out. You are defending MDC/CCC blindly and will never accept they are fallible.
Zimbabwe is a failed state because we have buffoons as leaders, that is obvious. What is not so obvious is the reality of the army of brain dead wildebeest herd on both sides of the political divide who are doing their best to keep the buffoons in power! You cannot reason with the herd, facts and reality mean nothing to one programmed like Boxer the horse in Animal Farm to believe “Comrade Napoleon is always right!”

ReplyDelete“Where do you come in yourself is it a crime to be in politics if not stop this stupidity of yours there were 11 political parties that contested in the past election so Y you targeting CCC??? You personally failed to parent your child who is a rapist.”
Are you saying I cannot hold CCC to account until I hold all the other political parties to account? You stupidity never cease to amaze me. I hold CCC to account for lying about plugged all vote rigging holes, participating in flawed elections out of greed, etc. As long as the party holds public office they are accountable, period. If you think all the other parties are accountable for whatever, go ahead hold them to account.
You suggestion that I should not hold CCC to account until I have held all the other parties to account is rubbish and must be dismissed with the contempt it deserves.
Zimbabwe, like every other country the world over, has individuals who have committed crimes and after due process many have been convicted. Having been convicted or having a family member who was convicted should not bar one from participating in public life.
You cannot defend you foolish statements in support of CCC, you can bear to see CCC held to democratic account, etc. You are hell bent on stifling debate on these matters of national importance by bring up irrelevant issues and even making up the rules as you go along.
Let me say this again Chamisa and his CCC friends are elected public officials and they are accountable for what the do in public office. And I know there are dimwits like you who will do anything to stifle public debate and stop CCC leaders being questioned. I refuse to be dragged into your gutter debate and remain resolutely focused on national matters.
You are not mad at being called an idiot, per se, I have given reasons why you ARE an idiot. You have called me worse but we both know it never bothered me because we both knew it is just the renting of a village idiot!
Frankly, I am disappointed that the administrators of this platform have allowed you to post the nonsense designed to stifle debate and nothing else.
The real issue here is that you do not get the golden opportunity to implement reforms and fail to implement even one token reform because of greed and incompetence. Then you keep participating in flawed elections to give Zanu PF legitimacy out of greed. And then lie to the people that you have winning in rigged election strategies to justify why you sold out on reforms and to hide your greed!
ReplyDeleteMDC failed to implement even one reform during the GNU and has been participating in flawed elections since 2013 to give Zanu PF legitimacy out of greed. And you think they dd the nation a great favour! It has not occurred to you that Zimbabwe would have been far better off if the reforms were implemented and the nation cured of the curse of rigged elections. And you think the EU would be impressed with MDC/CCC's track record?
ReplyDeleteChamisa has a solid plan - to sell the narrative the political crisis born by the SADC's damning election report was all his master plan. The next step is to muscle into the new GNU.
ReplyDeleteZanu PF know that if CCC are in the new GNU then it would be inconceivable to leave them out.
Zanu PF and CCC must not be in the new GNU, they will not implement any reforms. They did not implement even a token reform in the last GNU; nothing has changed.
