By A Correspondent- A social media account allegedly belonging to former Vice President turned opposition leader Joice Mujuru has exposed Zanu Pf infiltration within the opposition party, MDC.
In the posts, the account warns of an alleged well-funded plot to infiltrate and weaken the ruling party’s opponents.
The account alleges that the ruling Zanu PF uses what is called a “bait and bleed” strategy in which they induce rival factions to engage in a protracted war of attrition against each other “so that they bleed each other white”.
The warnings from the account come at a time when the opposition MDC seems deeply fractured and in disarray following a ruling by the Supreme Court which said that Nelson Chamisa is not the legitimate leader of the party.
Some of the posts from the Joice Mujuru account read:
The enemy within. it’s just the beginning. More is coming. plan plan plan and repeat planning. crucial times ahead. Good morning Zimbabwe.
…The amount of money being thrown on the floor to attract people for top & strategic positions is staggering. Very serious money involved, cars, free fuel coupons, farms. And with difficult times ahead, jobs will be lost. Very good comrades are going to fall for it. Remember these words – the enemy from within. Good night Zimbabwe.…I always avoid your questions. But this staying at home business maybe I can spill
lesson 1
They do what’s called “bait and bleed” that is induce to rival factions to engage in a protracted war of attrition against each other “so that they bleed each other white”
This has been perfected and don’t look at it from the top level. It’s very much active at the lower-level structures.
So this is not the time sit under a tree and drink whisky and have cookouts with girls. This is a war. You have 2 raging wars. Corona Virus and this obvious one. In wartimes, there are “situation rooms” dissecting every single structure and situation.
Your rival does not sleep. They plan plan plan and keep planing. Your rival has a situation room. Every day they go to a situation room to plan & replan, plan, go to the people & replan, gauge the mood, go to the people, plan & replan. What are you doing? Lockdown? Think again.
