Pursuant of the ancient wisdom "dzokororo ine simba", Simboti decided to redo his Harare Rally, after the unsurprising, yet embarrassing Zororo ground disaster.
Took time later on, to watch the rally, and a few things are becoming clear.
2] In terms of optics, one wonders why they decided to redo the rally
Evidently, Zororo Rally (1st pic) had predominantly Hararians, while for Zimbabwe Grounds rally (2nd pic), they mobilised from far & wide
If the end was supposed to justify the means, this was a disasterclass
3] Secondly, there is leadership deficiency in MDC
It doesn't help matters that the leader himself is incoherent.
He stammers & easily confuses himself
There isn't a single orator in MDC-T, who can "work a crowd"
I've attended funerals more enjoyable than the MDC-T gatherings
4] Rallies should leave those attending informed, rejuvenated & excited.
This is politics 101!
Forget about Chamisa, CCC boasts of Cecilia, Fadzi, Os, Madzore, Job, Biti, MaKhumalo, Prof, Chibaya, Kore, Madzibaba veShanduko, etc
In comparison, who are their equals in MDC-T?
5] Thirdly, MDC-A coalition is dead.
If anything, these rallies are merely it's funeral procession.
Except for Guchuti, one can't identify any other MDC-A leader.
They don't even get mentioned by name.
In fact, the MDC-A President, Chair, & Spokesperson are all MDC-T members.
6] In terms of optics, how will historians explain that the on the pics below, of rallies held at the same venue, the Yellow party was a month old, while the red party was 22!
Who will belive those in red were a 6 parties coalition, with MPs, Senators, Councillors & Mayors?
7] Fourthly, MDC-T rallies have exposed Mwonzora's deep lying anger, frustration & resentment over Chamisa.
Claiming Bona Mugabe is attending CCC rallies & that the ☝ finger symbolises that CCC a terrorist organisation is reckless stupidity.
The rationalist has gone nuts.
8] Whereas the claim that "Chamisa's Cabinet is full of G40s" is preposterous, it equally exposes Mwonzora
It was him who wanted G40 (RG) to fund his Chamisa fight
Also, how does he balance his 'anger' towards G40s, with his calls for dialogue with ED, & rational disputation?
9] Lastly, Mwonzora clearly has no focus whatsoever, on electoral contestation with ZanuPF.
It should worry any well-meaning MDC supporter, who sees their party as a vehicle to unseat ZanuPF, seeing that the core message from their leader, in a campaign season, is "dialogue".
10] Mwonzora actually can't wait for by-elections to pass, so that he can proceed with his GNU talks with ED.
If he had it his way, he would have scrapped the by-elections off, as he evidently sees them as a stumbling block, yet he caused them
It's a strange political behaviour
11] Whereas desperately calling for dialogue, & even name calling those he labels 'howling & growling enemies of democracy', its unclear what he would bring to that table.
In comparison with NC & team, who in MDC-T has a track record of delivering, as an official during the GNU?
12] Politically, Mwonzora is exposing his fear of elections.
His rallies have been exposing
His rallies also show that he's very thin on policy, with no understanding of statecraft
Externally, he has no political footing.
What then does Mwonzora bring to a NATIONAL DIALOGUE?
13] But ofcourse, we know that Mwonzora wants to take a different route to State House.
Because he's unelectable, he now wants to use a GNU to get close to government, become a PM, & then wiggle his was to the Presidency.
He's so naive & thinks ZanuPF factions don't see this.
14] Soon, he'll realise that he will become game, to ZanuPF.
Good thing is that @nelsonchamisa left this drama behind.
Without the MDC name fights which gave Dougie relevance, he's being exposed.
In his own words yesterday, Nero said, "kugona muroyi, kurega kuzvara".
enkosi!

Thank you Beitbridge citizens for braving the threats I'm told you were receiving from the state from yesterday. That's vintage ZanuPF. Violence shows a behaviour of people who know they are on their way out
We are winning in 2023 because we are # 1. After 2023, we will restore Zimbabwe to be #1. We will be #1 in sports; functional economy; national wealth.
When we lift the finger ☝ it symbolises that we are #1 and we are going to win in 2023 because of that.
1] Evidently, the Harare regime, which had not budgeted for the Yellow revolution that has taken over the country, is now going out of its way, trying to contain @nelsonchamisa
Just like the MDC-A party before it, @CCCZimbabwe has effectively been outlawed by the junta regime
2] @CCCZimbabwe held its inaugural #YellowSaturday rally at Zim grounds Harare, under stringent measures, albeit successfully.
Since then, it has been total chaos.
The Gokwe rally was cancelled while citizens were butchered in Kwekwe.
Other rallies were systematically thwarted
3] This weekend and the ensuing few days, @CCCZimbabwe had planned four rallies, as follows:
Sat 12 March - Marondera
Sun 13 March- Beitbridge
Mon 14 March- Tsholotsho
Tue 15 March - Binga
As it currently stands, all four rallies have been banned by the junta regime.
•dilapidated medical facilities
•children dropping out of school
•high company closure
•civil servants & service men struggling
•pensioners including warvets struggling
•corruption has become a national religion
•weaponisation of food & social services particularly in rural areas
•high youth unemployment
•poor education system
•artists struggling
•parents struggling to fend for families
True to its identity of being a judicial reconstruct, @OurMDCT through Mwonzora's legendary tactic of using proxies (something he employed against Tsvangirai himself), is now attempting to stop the March 202 by-elections, he caused
2] Great political minds, such as Dr Magaisa, countless times, warned Mwonzora against overplaying the court card, as 'politics is about the voter'!
Whereas admittedly, this isn't rocket science, it would seem like everyone else except Mwonzora, understood this warning.
3] Before looking into the merits of what the DM proxy is asking from the courts...here's some context.
Mwonzora has been a useful ploy, in ED's desperation to destroy @nelsonchamisa
In 2020, the courts upheld a dubious judgement which deligitimised Nero's succession of MRT
