Mugabe Slapped with Gupuro
“Let’s not under-estimate what has happened today (yesterday) with the war veterans,” said former Finance Minister Tendai Biti. ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW…
Speaking during the weekly ZimEye LIVEBLAST session chaired by ZimEye’s Grace Kwinjeh, Biti continued while emphasising saying, “let’s not under estimate the war veterans are the people who liberated this country. So for all intents and purposes they have been the epi-centre, the heart of the creature known as ZANU PF. So what has happened slowly in the last two years culminating to today is the war veterans saying we are disowning that which we created. They created a rapture.
“I have got an uncle who is a war veteran called vaGandamuseve…he phoned me saying mwanangu, tapa Gupuro ZANU PF today. He was so excited. The reason why he was excited is because he understands the impact of what he has done. That is why I come back to my point that we are in a transition. ZANU is not the same. When in ZANU PF did you see ministers fighting each other?
“…If you read Jonathan Moyo’s Twitter, its a pure civil war. We heard what Sarah Mahoka used to say against Lacoste…what Mandi Chimene… so they are in an absolute war. That’s why boycotting the election is not an option because ZANU is not the same thing, it has been rapturing and fragmenting since 2013.
can someone tell me what these reforms are????
well said. hope they read your message. its also one thing to win an election and another thing to govern! as ’08 had it!
However, unlike any other party, Zanu PF has the capacity and marbles to regroup and spring a surprise. They dismally lost in 2008, played delaying tactics, regrouped, killed many and beat up everyone. In the end they got away with what they wanted. Seeing that their star was on a serious fall, in 2013 they hired Nikuv and again got away with what they wanted – victory.
Apart from articulating, analysing, predicting and waiting for their self-induced fall, what collective strategies as opposition do you have to ensure electoral victory and take over of power? Have any of you thought of infiltrating the intelligence or extending a diplomatic hand to the generals? You need to play it smart and do these things in order to secure the election result and guarantee yrself of governing. Otherwise its all talk and u will be caught by another surprise – helplessly.
