Shyleen Mtandwa | Former Vice President Joice Mujuru made a political blunder this morning after she snubbed a demonstration organised by the National Election Reform Agenda (NERA).
The demo was held defiantly against a background of police issuing stringent conditions for NERA which organised the demonstration against government’s decision to take over the procurement of biometric voter registration (BVR) kits.
Mujuru was this morning overtaken by People’s Democratic Party President Tendai Biti who attended the demonstration which endorsed Morgan Tsvangirai as the preferred presidential candidate to stand against President Robert Mugabe in 2018. Biti told scores of people gathered that they would soon go after the Mugabe’s including their rats.
A source close to developments told ZimEye in confidentiality that, “Mujuru is naive, she seriously blundered.” Apparently an Aide of Mujuru’s upon being called to confirm attendance at the demo rubbished it as just another “Tsvangirai gathering.”
Mujuru who now leads the National People’s Party, was also overtaken by her former ally Dydimus Mutasa who represented Zimbabwe People First and addressed the crowd.
Don’t underate this woman
Funny! where is freedom of association, it is within her right not to attend. Besides just because Tswangirai attended it does not mean every opposition leader has to attend. Isn’t Tswangirai himself selective. He has not yet signed to CODE and refuses to attend code meetings. Have people ever complained. He is even selecting who he will partner with to defeat Zanu PF which I think its lack of focus, zealous and over confident for a person who have lost three times. Three times is 15 years and people may decide its a waste of their time and change their voting pattern. they have done that to Zanu pf. If Mujuru decides to join the Code and is put as a residential candidate, then it would be disaster for Tswangirai. There is that possibility. I smell a rat, the fact that The former CIO boss and Mujuru are not in good books and Tswangirai and his home boy Mutasa seem to get on well, then Mujuru might decide to join code. This still is within her rights no matter what people might say. He should be aware that there are alternative strategies that other political leaders could come with and ACT maturely. count your chicks when they have been hatched not while they are still inside the egg shell
NOTHING PROFFERED PARTY (NPP)! SHE HAS NOTHING TO OFFER WHY WORRY ABOUT HER!
