TSHOLOTSHO DECLARATION; HOW FAR CAN MUGABE REFLECT?



The current political turmoil in the revolutionary party should be granted a coin status; the other side of the coin being treated with positivity towards a prosperous nation that most citizens envy. The recent developments might be a positive step towards the disintegration of a harmonized political hegemony, a synchronized dictatorship that haunted our polity for more than a decade.

The recent fight between Dr. Mujuru and Amai Mugabe is a welcome development in the Zimbabwean political arena, though; other desktop analysts arguing that the fight is a mere gimmick of a political group that seeks to divert attention from real economic issues through a political strategy of factionalism-hymn. 

The analysis from our desktop friends carries an element of truth, that is, the current factionalism has helped ZANU PF to divert attention from their election promises, but that does not imply in whole that there are no cracks in the party.

The factional fights have brought a sasant political trajectory premised on the succession issue. The appearing of our own Amai also carries a coin status, the famous side being Mugabe‘s feared incapacitation that may be knocking his political door, hence triggering political preparedness by Amai.

One very interesting thing is the defense line being built by the Tsholotsho Team; coming at the defense of the person they are being alleged for being have a ploy to topple, it is such a delicious peace of political story. 

The King maker and long time critic of His Excellency President Robert Mugabe, the Professor of Politics Jonathan Moyo being seen fundamentally giving credence to the first family, few years ago in his constituency there was well crafted strategy, few years back he wrote acres of articles criticizing now his favorite, a strategist per excellence.

For the opposition parties, they should pay gratitude to Moyo (Professor), as  he deserves more than a gold medal; it is their man who is doing what they failed to do for almost one and half decade, to destroy ZANU PF.

Zimbabweans should also have respect for Mrs. Mugabe on one tropical thing; bravery, she successfully took the opposition parties space; there seem to have nothing to say, than an empty statement which goes by Mugabe should go! 

Grace’s act of bravery has exposed such under dealings in the ruling party, which can be a catalyst towards creation of a political order which is accountable to people, a political dispensation that is questioned and a future nation that does not promote greed and corruption.

Apart from the fights in ZANU PF, people should still know that the party still has chances to survive a split, find each other and continue with their known dictatorship.

A fragmentation of ZANU PF will be a better option, which might bring another opposition with internal information of the former, then follows road to a democratic nation. 

Let’s pray for a split, Zimbabwe will never be the same and a colony again.

Let’s wait and see.
