1] This development has to be the worst kept secret.
As expected, the puppet party is moving for the ALLIANCE name.
The concern for me, is that the democratic alternative risks being left internally focused, the reason why the regime sponsored the infamous SC judgement.

2] The hypocrites in the puppet party (28 July), claimed that only 3 parties constitute their MDC-A coalition Principals Forum.
This was in response to the Guchutu expulsion letter.
Fast forward to August, their coalition now has 6 Principals all over gain.
It's all hypocrisy.

3] This "coalition" without Chamisa, Ncube, Biti is absolutely useless.
None amongst the parties & "leaders" who constitute this coalition was voted for in 2018.
Soon, they will be faced with the conundrum of choosing the best useless candidate amongst themselves, for 2023.

4] In terms of significant electoral performance:
•The current MDC-T MPs only followed Dougie for fear of expulsion
•All ex PDP MPs are with Biti & Nero
•All ex MDC-Green MPs are with Ncube & Nero.
These are the real electoral players in Zimbabwe.

5] In direct contrast, those constituting this puppetry coalition, whilst maintaining post 2018 autonomy, came out of that very election with nothing.
Zanu Ndonga, Zim PF, MCD, and the newly smuggled Matibenga PDP, all have no elected representative.
Havana vanhu vanhu ava.

6] Their 2023 candidate conundrum reminds me of a time when we had to bring one of our orphaned nieces to "town".
We had heard of her impressive grades in the rural areas.
Once in "town", her grades were shocking.
It became clear, "aingove shasha yemadofo" in her class kumusha.

7] Noone can wish away the electoral legitimacy of Nero.
Citizens & the world know who the real MDC-A is.
More importantly, noone can take away the legacies of Nero, Ncube, Biti, Wiwa, Kore,Thabita etc
They can lead/belong to a party called PATATI-PATATA, the people will know.

8] The EFF is proof that you can move away, and curve your own legacies.
They are further proof that histories & ideological identities are bigger than parties which always want to personalize them.
So if someone somewhere fears "rebranding", they aren't students of history.

9] My concern isn't even necessarily with the "rebranding".
Its actually that the democratic alternative can ill afford being internally focused, & playing in matches where the referee plays for & supports the weaker team.
The focus on voter registration risks being derailed.

10] Its problematic enough that the democratic alternative operates in a military dictatorship.
Getting drowned in fights with political dodos benefits noone.
It's time to build something fresh, on the foundation of yesterday's battles, in pursuit of tomorrow's dreams.
enkosi!
