By Terrence Mawawa |Vice President Phelekezela Mphoko a self confessed disciple of the First Lady Grace Mugabe is under fire for his sensational claims that the Karangas will never take over the presidency of the country.
The bootlicking Mphoko went out of the way when he claimed the Karangas will never rule the country, drawing the ire of politicians across the political divide in Masvingo. Mphoko who has aligned himself with the G40 camp stunned all and sundry when he claimed Karangas would never rule the Zimbabwe. Senior Zanu PF officials known to be sympathetic to Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa said Mphoko was a man of stature but he had little brains.They said Mphoko’s utterances were calculated to belittle Karanga politicians -particularly Mnangagwa.
“Mphoko’s comments are unfortunate, reckless and uncouth. He made a clear insult to us. Mphoko must quickly retract his utterances before the 21st February Movement celebrations -otherwise we will stage a demonstration against him and his supporters,” said a Member of Parliament who chose not to be named. In a rare alliance, albeit of perceptions, former Zanu PF politburo member Dzikamai Mavhaire said, “Mphoko’s views are full of hatred .All people have the right to choose their own leaders despite tribal backgrounds.We do not tolerate such kind of talk”.
Former MDC MP and current PDP deputy national secretary general Tongai Matutu said Mphoko did not deserve to lead the national healing committee . “We have been segregated by Mphoko’s comments. He must apologise for his utterances,”said Matutu. Political analysts here said Mphoko insulted the entire Karanga tribe through reckless comments meant to please his boss Grace Mugabe in the G40 formation.
Mphoko has torched yet another fire in the already raging storm in the ruling party and the Vice President’s sentiments have ignited further tension in the troubled party. Mphoko’s sentiments have triggered anger even outside the ruling party.

But Mphoko is not alone, even Dr Obert Mpofu said there was no one in Matebeleland with capacity to be president. Prof Jonathan Moyo made a futile attempt to rescue the man but failed miserably

That’s a lie. How could they say that when Nkala was leading the charge against dissidents. And mind you all those Ndebele brigadiers were in the ZNA. You need hearing aids or someone to translate shona for you. And don’t get too excited about Zezuru, Karanga, Manyika fights we always get over it even though one or two people may get bruised.

we have always said that people from other areas you have benefited from writing leaked exams always, thats why you cant even read what mphoko said and comment according to what he said but you buy to your tribal agenda which have been always the case with the karanga people. can we go over wht he said again and deduce whether he attacked the karanga people. but anyhow its better to see the shona people being divided along tribal lines too, we have been in this mess as a country just because of your recist and tribalistic attitudes, but mphoko did not insult the karanga people. we better have a parliament divided along tribal lines so that debates and corruption can be done away with.
