4/5 All politics is local. No one has a national address, and no one lives on @Twitter. Social media users are not its owners. I'm happier to stay connected with #Tsholotsho and its neighbouring communities, where votes count. The north, as the electorate, remembers pretty well! Image
5/5 In #Tsholotsho we will always be each other's keeper, whether one is ZanuPF or MDC or whatever; we work as Proud Zimbabweans in MatNorth and, yes in Matabeleland!

Phambile le Tsholotsho
Phambili le MatNorth
Phambili le Matabeleland

"Only 2 000 registered to vote, says ZEC"; @NewsDayZimbabwe

Sobering blow. Hashtags, retweets & likes are not a voter mobilization strategy. When people urge you to "retweet for awareness"; they're just pushing their profile, not a national strategy!

newsday.co.zw/2021/12/only-2… ImageImageImageImage
Digital communication can be very useful in highlighting or explaining praxis, i.e what's going on, but it is not as useful in starting praxis. It's useless to have a tweet for retweets or likes; that's not targeting anyone who is actually doing something real in the real word!
Electoral authorities in Zim wanted a monopoly to do voter education for voter registration etc; but they lost the argument as civic society & political parties resisted it since they knew the monopoly would undermine democracy. Key: VOTER REGISTRATION IS MOBILIZED ON THE GROUND!

1/5 When President Mugabe announced he would vote for @nelsonchamisa, and not @edmnangagwa, on the eve of the 2018 elections; it was on the back of lots of ground work that had been done by "G40" around the country, in some provinces more than in others, since the Nov 2017 coup!
2/5 The "G40" 2018 Chamisa campaign didn't extend to MDC; as shown by the messaging & the results. Hence ZanuPF won 145 out of 210 parliamentary seats, out performing @edmnangagwa who got 125. Chamisa won 85, outperforming MDC with 63; he won the poll but it was stolen from him!
3/5 In actively & openly campaigning for @nelsonchamisa in 2018; and exposing the stolen vote since then, in various fora including here; President Mugabe & "G40" never said they wanted to join the #MDC; never. IT WAS PURE COALITION POLITICS. Only dogmatic cultists don't get it!

1/25 It's the end of another tumultuous year for Zimbabweans which, like 2020 that ended with the peak of a 3rd wave and new Delta variant, is ending with a surging 4th wave under a new variant, Omicron. And so lives and livelihoods in Zim are threatened, as the new year beckons!
2/25 With the exodus of some 2,000 specialised health workers who have left the country in search of greener pastures, due to deteriorated working and political conditions, the readiness of Zim's healthcare system to deal with the highly transmissible Omicron is in serious doubt!
3/25 Even more disquieting is the ill-preparedness of Zimbabweans to deal with the deteriorated political conditions in the country. With 100 days before the by-elections and 18 months before the 2023 elections, 2021 is ending with no respite on the horizon for ordinary people!

1/6 While the USD100 & US 200 fees for ordinary & express e-passports are extortionate, the USD20 application fee paid at "any CBZ Bank branch countrywide" is shocking corruption that stinks to the high heavens as it's meant to benefit CBZ owners who include Mnangagwa & Tagwirei!
2/6 At the core of the Rule of Law, and in concert with Constitutional Democracy, is the cardinal principle that legislation must be of general application and not specfic to individuals, save for exceptional circumstances where mention of individuals or entities is unavoidable!
3/6 An example where mention or listing of names of individuals or entities in legislation is situations where a party, person or entity is named in tax law or an investment scheme, as having met some general criteria which otherwise is open to other parties, persons or entities!

1/6 This documentation of the gukurahundi genocide is crucial @zenzele: going for specific cases; based on available and incontrovertible information, as in this 5 Brigade murder of Lieutenant Edias Ndhlovu, his wife and two others on account of being Ndebele in 1983 in Lupane!
2/6 Lieutenant Ndhlovu, his wife & two others were murdered on 11 Feb 1983 & buried in a shallow roadside grave by four Five Brigaders: Corporals Charles Simango, Simon Chayana & George Chivayi and Private Samuel Gwatirera who saw their victims as "dissidents" for being Ndebele!
3/6 Corporal Chayana told a board of inquiry that they murdered Lieutenant Ndhlovu, his wife & two others in Lupane on 11 Feb 1983 on orders to "kill anybody whom we suspected to be dissidents"; the operational rule was that dissidents were Ndebele and Ndebeles were dissidents!

1/24 Moro Sahwira wangu, you know I've lots of time & respect for you & your views. Clearly, we have profound differences of opinion on this issue, sparked by the personal tributes that some of us, so-called G40 guys, have paid to the late SK Moyo. Out of respect, let me explain!
2/24 First and foremost, for me and in all circumstances at all times, I'm unable and unwilling to adopt "an eye for an eye" as a moral precept or compass, political ideology or legal principle. An eye for an eye is the antithesis of humanity and flies against human civilisation!
3/24 Coming to the specfic case of the late SK Moyo, it's untrue and unfair to basket him as one of those who "chased" the so-called G40 "out of ZanuPF and Zim" with "AK47 breathing at their necks". I know for a fact that SK was troubled and conflicted by sad events of Nov 2017!
