1] Took time to go through details of the reinstatement of @mdczimbabwe VP, @BitiTendai & other ex PDP MPs to Parliament.

The Judge makes interesting observations, particularly the frivolous nature of how certain individual are abusing the recall clause.

2] The Judge reasons, rightfully so, that by the 2018 elections, there were two distinct PDPs.

In doing so, the Judge recognizes the right of association, by the Biti led PDP faction, to belong wherever, without being entangled in some supposed "one PDP" under any individual(s).

3] The judge makes another determination, on how frivolous it would be, for individuals who went to the 2018 election under "rainbow coalition", as did Matibenga & team, to now claim ownership over MPs elected under MDC-A.

He calls the imposter PDP Secretary & team, "cuckoos".

4] Couldn't help draw parallels between this Judgement, & the Supreme Court one, which ushered in the Khupe/Mwonzora madness

Just like with PDP, towards 2018, we also had two different MDC-T factions, one under MRT/NC, the other under Khupe, going separate ways.
It's undeniable

5] After 2018, the SC Judgement attempted to "reunite" MDC-T factions under one "acting leader" who supposedly was the "rightful MDC-T VP".

In the Biti case, the Matibenga group attempted to reason that she was the rightful PDP Leader, after having had "fired Tendai Biti".

6] Now, just like with PDP in 2018, MDC-T factions existed separately.

One coalesced under NC, the other under Khupe.

Yet a judgement purported to not only unite them, but give Khupe shepherdship over officials elected under NC.
Matibenga attempted to do the same in this case.

7] The immediate consequence of the SC judgement's strange attempt to ignore the separation that existed prior to 2018, was that Khupe & team became beneficiaries of their electoral performance of their 2018 rivals

The HC Judge castigated Matibenga for also attempting to do this

8] The Biti-Matibenga judgement brings out few issues.

The first one obviously being the role of the Speaker of Parly in recalls.

Its tragic that this important institution is headed by a member of a rival party, more so in election season, who makes political decisions.

9] Mudenda, a lawyer in his own right, has shown unmatched energy, in illegally recalling @mdczimbabwe MPs.

Instead of just acting on the reinstatement of Biti et al, Mudenda is rather giving Matibenga's PDP, legal advice.

It consequently directs us to the source of the recalls

10] The other issue is the evident role of the State in the attempted dismemberment of @mdczimbabwe

The HC Judge castigated PDP lawyers, labelling them "hired guns".

The MDC-T unsurprisingly embraced Matibenga as their "2018 ALLIANCE partner" knowing fully well, this is untrue

11] This script, expose how these shenanigans are indisputably, ED's re-election plan.

•You've a court making Khupe leader of an institution which defeated her

•Defeated people replacing the elected

•The MDC-T attempting to create a new "MDC-A " with unknown & unnamed CIOs

12] Another issue, perhaps more worrying, is the general reaction of citizens to this Biti judgement.

You know there's a judiciary crisis, when citizens only "half-celebrate" a judgement they nevertheless acknowledge as being "sound".

The reason being, "we've been here before".

13] Instead of acting on the judgement, the Speaker of Parly, a member of ZanuPF's politburo is advising the applicant to "appeal" to the SC.

Doesnt this criminally expose the logic behind this evident madness?

ZanuPF and its variants in the 'opposition' are clearly determined.

14] This should fuel citizens towards a convergence to save our country & its institutions.

We can't have a 'ruling party' absolutely disinterested in governing, rather focusing on 'destroying' the democratic alternative.

There's no other way,
