2] The #unrelenting#hypocrites who accused the #MDC-A of lacking party discipline want to christian #Chamisa a dictator for taking measures to realign party communication channels with the constitution.
They prefer seeing #MDC-A officials excitedly behave like a #Vikings army.
1] Thank you brother @BantuPower for this submission.
I hope noone insults you for your choice, yet in the spirit of engagement and normalizing having conversations regarding our politics, I felt compelled to do a quick response as a mere supporter of CCC & Advocate Chamisa.
2] Firstly brother @BantuPower, I felt disappointed by your inability to explain further on what it is, that would make a leader be able to "unite Zimbabweans".
Accusing Adv Chamisa of not having something you didn't bother explain, only but made your submission confusing.
3] Secondly, any narrative that characterizes Adv Chamisa as some instigator of the "chaotic" Tsvangirai succession is misleading.
He neither appointed himself as a VP (outside a MDC Congress), nor made himself MDC Acting or Substantive leader.
1] @OurMDCT National Spokesperson Morgen Nkomichi:
"There's nothing new anymore, the people have sent a message to us that they prefer @nelsonchamisa as the Opposition Leader. There is no doubt about that."
"If we (MDC-T/MDC-A) are to be in the competition ourselves, then we have to change the approach and strategy. We've learnt a lot of things (from the by-elections). We need to deal with our brand, our strategy, tactics, mobilization and recruitment."
3] Nkomichi:
"Opposition political parties must never be enemies. An 'enemy' is a very strong word to be used by any human being. As Opposition parties, we are all working toward one goal. We only differ on that others are MDC, others CCC, and so on."
Have noticed growing sentiments, around the inaugural Citizens Congress, both from well meaning citizens, as well as the regime counterintelligence structures.
I've decided to share some random views on the matter.
2] A few weeks ago, I wrote a (long) article, on how @nelsonchamisa's opponents had failed to understand his #plan
I equally argued that Zimbabwe isn't a normal democracy & thus CCC wouldn't survive for long, if it's leaders behaved & acted as if we were
3] Yes, in a normal democracy, it would be ideal for CCC to go for Congress & participate in the 2023 elections with a leadership without a legitimacy question over their party positions.
However, it's important to query why ZanuPF is very vocal over the CCC Congress concern.
1] Once again, ZanuPF is exposing it's desperation
For this who may be unaware, @daddyhope is currently in Switzerland, at the Geneva Summit for Human Rights & Democracy
@daddyhope delivered a powerful speech on corruption, plunger & human rights abuses, by ZanuPF & its cronies
2] @daddyhope drew parallels between poverty/underdevelopment & corruption.
For instance, Zimbabwean gold worth US $100 m, is smuggled #monthly, at a time where ZanuPF has failed to built a single maternity ward in 42 years, contributing to death of 2500 pregnant women annually
3] Take this into context...
Our biggest hospital is Harare Hospital, after 42 years, it only has 2 maternity theaters (both build in 1977) and only one is working.
To build one maternity theatre, we only need US $37 k.
After 42 years, ZanuPF hasn't build any, at Harare Hosp
'Suspended' Chairperson of @OurMDCTHarare, @ZMhetu has broken rank with embattled party leader, @DMwonzora accusing him of a litany of charges, including leadership failure & responsibility for @OurMDCT by-elections humiliation
'Was blocked entery into HH after reporting what the voters said. I'm being victimised for telling the truth. I wanted to raise a vote of no confidence motion on Mwonzora in the National Council. Since the formation of MDC, it has never failed dismally in elections'
'a President is the party CEO. Our failure to not even get a single seat was caused by Mwonzora's failure to create good strategies, friendly to the electorate. I can clearly state that Mwonzora is dining with ZanuPF. He doesn't do anything that grows the party.'
