1] As the MDC circus continues...

....Our politics has too many lawyers, such that some basic political conversations & developments become difficult to comprehend & discern, respectively, for the random layman, as politicians hide behind Latin legal jargons.

2] In simpler terms...

@DMwonzora, who lost a chance to contest @nelsonchamisa for the @mdczimbabwe Presidency, convinced #DrKhupe that she was actually the Acting President of her own #MDC_T party which elected her uncontested in Bulawayo.

And she fell for it

3] What Dougie did, is actually akin to convincing someone that he actually is just his own wife's boyfriend, because of some love letter from the 80s.

This is besides the fact that the two are married.

Dougie even had Khupe making some hilarious DA comparisons

4] Anyways, Dr Khupe is now a MP

Perhaps its poetic justice because she was once recalled by the same people she has now replaced.

Yet there is no justification for being a PR MP on the basis of votes which were made against you.

this is political desperation

5] Yet even as i post this, these MDC-T developments do not make me sad or anything like that...

other than the continued clampdown on human rights, what bothers me is the discord amongst MDC-ALLIANCE members on these streets

watching from a distance, i worry...

6] Whereas disagreements define politics, why fight & make public confrontations?

Why would you choose to refocus citizens away from national issues & concentrate on petty party politics?

I do not know why some people are obsessed with always being right.

7] Some of the MDC followers on these streets are close friends..

Some are not, but have earned my respect

I feel sad, especially in light of the journey we walked in 2018, long before being a "murakashi" became fashionable
