Comrade Chris Mutsvangwa is such an
idiot. One that shows how the sick men and women around a sick Robert Mugabe are fighting for the soul of a sick party.
So now we still must be loyal to people
who have shit on us just because they fought in the war – or rather
they went to Mozambique?
I would respect Joyce Mujuru for being
on the frontline. Those who know about the war are familiar with the
name Teurairopa Nhongo and Rex Nhongo.
And if Mutsvangwa's yardstick measure
for leadership is based on war credentials, what are Grace Mugabe's
war credentials? And why does Mutsvangwa want Mujuru to talk about
the so-called Mazowe declaration as if it was any other such
declaration that would put bread on our tables?
If the war means a lot to Mutsvangwa,
what is Mugabe's war name? Mugabe just like Didymus Mutasa
stayed in plush suburbs of maputo during the war. What about Sally
Mugabe? Was she not in London just like Mutasa? Both contributed to
the war in kind. Which makes all those who did things for the
liberation war valuable.
I don't like Mutasa. But he is a human
being whose efforts in and for the war should not be demeaned just
because he did not go out to the frontline. There are so many cowards
in Zanu-PF today who never went out to war. We know Emmerson
Mnangagwa was out there. And by virtue of being out there, Mnangagwa
is one of the top leaders in Zanu-PF today. I doubt if Mnangagwa has
a liberation war name. So can we say that Mnangagwa just like Mugabe
and them who stood behind the lines, did not fight in the war because
they never went into the bush?
This is where Mutsvangwa's idiocy
comes in. If many young people who wanted to participate in the
Zanu-PF youth league were blocked, why should Grace be parachuted in
the party? She did not go to war. She would not have gone to war
even. And just why does Mutsvangwa support Grace's nomination at the
so-called Mazowe declaration?
Let's talk about Oppah Muchinguri. She
was out there but typing letters unlike Joyce Mujuru who had the guts
to fight side by side with Mutsvangwa. Can Oppah then be a leader on
the virtue of her having been out in Mozambique?
If Mutsvangwa's criterion is to be
used, Oppah does not qualify to be on the high table. If Oppah does
not qualify, then anyone whom she nominates does not also qualify.
Simple logic.
