1/ 🔥🔥The day Shaky Mukoyi, CiC of Vanguard was to appear on @kwirirayi’s ZiFM show, he wanted bury @hwende & Wamba & tell all about how they used him & violence to take over MDC last yr.

Mukoyi had bn promised the Kuwadzana seat.

2/ The promise for Kuwadzana seat, which Wamba was vacating, was good for Mukoyi to do violence for Wamba since it was a “safe seat”.

But Mhofu @hwende who is from Kadoma also wanted the safe seat. So he took Mukoyi on.

3/ Prior to his @kwirirayi show on @ZiFMStereo, Mukoyi widely circulated a video of his appearance.
That day I had passed through Wamba’s office, he was a worried man, quite frantic.

Around 6pm, most MDC top honchos we’re waiting eagerly for the show.

4/ A coupla days earlier, Wamba had called Shaky Mukoyi & threatened to fire him from the party.

But Mukoyi reminded him that he had no such powers & was illegitimate anyway.

5/ Meantime, the Kuwadzana seat primary had been postponed several times with Hwende complaining that Shaky Mukoyi was threatening him with a gun.

6/ Hours before the Vanguard appearance of Mukoyi on the @kwirirayi show, the man of God, Pastor Wamba dia Wamba & Mhofu @hwende were left with no option but to pay Shaky Mukoyi $10000 to be quiet!

He took the Cash & played truant on @kwirirayi.

He was a no show.

7/ @kwirirayi kept calling him, but Shaky let the phone ring off. But at this point he had $10000 in cold cash.

Remember Shaky had played a key part in making sure Wamba took hold of MDC by “kidnapping” Khupe & Mwonzora at MRT funeral. Remember this at Tsvangirai’s funeral 👇🏽

8/ Remember after Morgan funeral there was severe violence in Bulawayo that led Khupe & Gutu to say no this is not what the MDC stands for. Even @JessieFMajome complained about Vanguard. @maDube_ complained too but did not condemn the instigator.

9/ The Lesson: if you rise by illegitimately by bashing everyone around, you may win today by your opponents live to fight another day.

This is why Wamba can’t keep the MDC ship stable. He has to keep it rattling. For his own ends.

10/ MDC has been sustained by violence for many years. That’s why the likes of Ian Kay left because it was becoming an unfamiliar animal.

Wamba’s challenge today is he used Vanguard & alienated it. That’s why pple saying Chete Chete are outsiders like Biti & @JobWiwa

11/ The Pastor’s leadership did not come from MDC structures or the people. That is the bone of contention today!

It’s a significant issue.
