While the removal of Tagwirei was in line with the need for ratification of his membership the method in which it was done makes the incident very unfortunate. This was a simple issue that could have been handled differently& avoided the current drama& conspiracies.

One cannot help but ponder the lost opportunity for the matter to be addressed with the measured dignity it deserves, particularly considering the circumstances surrounding his ascent. It is, after all, an established fact that he emerged as a product of a legitimate initiative.

In the interests of party cohesion, there was little justification for the hasty imposition of measures that the President may not have endorsed. A more judicious approach would have been to await the First Secretary's perspective before embarking on any resolutions.

Being acutely aware of the procedural intricacies surrounding impeachment, I could easily dismiss Gambakwe's ravings. However, it is alarming to recognize that many individuals genuinely subscribe to these disjointed narratives. The lack of understanding is disturbing.

During the impeachment motion directed at President Mugabe I was involved at a high level. Initially,Maridadi was slated to propose& I would second. It was changed later that Monica Mutsvangwa sponsor it, with Maridadi seconding. Thus I have intimate knowledge of this process.

Contrary to the current climate, 2017 witnessed a notable cohesion among the political parties. ZANU legislators and War Veterans were unequivocal in their demand for Mugabe’s ousting, and the opposition stood in solidarity, with its leaders openly endorsing the endeavor.

In the aftermath of Geza's uprising fizzling out like a wet firecracker, many hopefuls have resorted to spinning tales of a frail& sickly President. Let me clear the air: those whispers couldn’t be further from reality. The man remains as sharp as ever for his age.

You can't just fabricate a narrative & genuinely expect it to take root. While differing views are a staple of democracy, it’s far more constructive to strengthen your party or candidacy than undermining an elected leader with fabrications, hoping we will buy into the fiction.

I had the chance to see the President up close at a recent vaMhari event at his farm. He was lively, even dancing to some traditional tunes—definitely not the behavior of someone who is frail and ill.

1/One onerous burden of seeking asylum as a FALSE victim of politics is the need to frame and maintain your status as a victim facing death in your country. It leads one to create non-existent enemies. In serious instances, one starts to believe their lies. Ali Naka is one such !

2/The guy has made a name for himself by constantly feeding social media exciting conspiracies& rumours none of which turns to be true. The agenda is to maintain his asylum by being strongly anti-government. I will return with more on this scheme for guys like him& Maswerasei.

3/It's pitiful that the editorial standard for social media is so low that he repeatedly gets to throw whatever fictional contrivances he manufactures in South Africa and gets away with it. That has to stop and should start with him substantiating his latest accusations.

I was invited to a SADCOPAC event and what I witnessed there was both saddening and tragic. I never imagined I would see something like that in terms of the behaviour of some MPs led by Hon Charlton Hwende, current Public Accounts Portfolio Committee Chairman.

There was an AGM to elect new office bearers. Unfortunately the Hwende clique thought because the country has the current Chairmanship of SADC then it had a bye in getting the Chairmanship of SADCOPAC too. Their misguided and unruly actions decimated the decorum of the event!

In one of the Governing Council meetings, with 11 PAC Chairpersons, Hwende, with Hon Mugwadi, who was clearly drunk and seemingly enrolled as muscle, went about insulting the other 10 members arguing that Hwende should be Chairperson.

My kids are back from school and while going through their report books I noticed that most of them performed badly in Shona despite it being their mother language. I asked why and the uniform answer was that they are not allowed to converse in Shona at school.

@MoPSEZim is this Gvt policy? Many nations are so proud of their languages such that English has failed to dislodge their native tongues. The Chinese, the Spanish, South Africans, etc. Are we literally allowing our kids to be colonised with the teachers/schools as enablers?

@MoPSEZim A lot needs to be done in these schools and can the responsible Hon Minister Torerayi Moyo do something. When Hon Priscilla Misihairambwi was the Chairperson of the Portfolio Committee on Pry& Sec Education, we effectively dealt with unjustifiable increases in tuition fees.
