1] #MorningReflection
Fellow citizens, as we edge towards 2023, propaganda & threats such as this, will most certainly become the order of the day.
Through this statement, Mr Chinamasa has invited us into reading ZanuPF's thoughts.
However, it's just a whisper in the wind.

2] It was only a matter of time before ZanuPF removed its mask, and formally joined the demands for CCC to have "structures, constitution, and a leadership".
Away from the pretence of enhancing democracy as Mr Patrick Chinamasa claims, the important question becomes, why?

3] It's in order, recognizing & thanking Mr Chinamasa for this story in the Daily News.
Hopefully, citizens who were innocently joining this bandwagon can properly realize that there's indeed a desperate attempt by the regime to push CCC along a road full of set traps.

4] For contexts sake...
Most of these people in CCC leadership, held key positions in the now defunct MDC, during the time of its electoral prowess.
They indeed include Welshman, Tendai, Nelson, Kore, Sikhala, Coltart, Timba, Khupe, etc.
They absolutely know what worked then.

5] In the same vein, they equally know what DIDN'T work.
It would be beyond ridiculous, to demand that they be lectured by exiled or desperate ZanuPF members, only how to effectively organize so as to defeat ZanuPF.
The plan is to constitute CCC in a way that avoids past errors

6] I assure you that the CCC interim leadership is fully aware of the real intent in having the party make premature statements & actions.
Empty threats of constitutional ammendments (which will be resisted), to force CCC's hand, only fortifies the CCC leadership.

7] I invite those interested, to study the pattern of how virtually all organizations opposed to ZanuPF and/or of political interest to the party, with explicitly defined "structures" have all split & disintegrated.
Beside parties, the list includes churches, CSOs, etc.

8] Secondly, study also how either just after, or before every election in Zimbabwe, when it was at its peak, the now defunct MDC would split.
At the center of those splits, were issues to do with its constitution & leadership and they all seemed internal.

9] Study also, how the now defunct MDC, always found itself internally focused at a time when ZanuPF found itself at its weakest.
The internal focus mostly came through the chaotic "primaries", & the Congresses, with the one demanded by the Supreme Court, being the most recent.

10] And whenever the alternative found itself needing to handle internal issues, ZanuPF would either:
i. Activate its moles
ii. Start setting up certain leaders against others, actively campaigning for change of leadership in the alternative.
These patterns have been studied.

11] It's no coincidence that at a time when desperate calls for a "defined leadership" are getting louder, some CCC leaders are getting praises from regime functionaries masquerading as political commentators.
We are already told who is apparently better than this other leader.

12] The other day, someone singled out a few leaders trying to have them disassociate from "Chamisa's unconstitutionality".
The other day, we were told who the Opposition should alternatively elect as a leader
This morning, another leader got a random praise
Study the pattern!

13] But ofcourse, part of the plan is to have CCC supporters attacking those being praised by ZanuPF.
Most have no involvement in this.
Reality remains that, there's no internal contestation for power & positions in CCC, only unity of purpose towards legally winning state power

14] But then, how do you navigate these enchanted forests.
As already stated, ZanuPF's pattern had to be studied and it has.
Secondly, the plan is to constitute differently, deliberately so, in ways that certainly frustrate the regime thereby constantly catching it unaware.

15] It doesn't matter how desperate they become, witches aren't invited to the baby shower, and certainly won't buy it any clothes nor suggest names.
The alternative has studied the errors of yesterday, perfecting what worked then; and cooking up new surprises altogether.

16] Fellow citizens, the intention was to hopefully say enough, without giving away too much.
Anyway, remember yesterday's morning reflection: "political chiringa syndrome".
What matters most now is: voter registration & education.
