We know little or nothing has changed, as the Zimbabwe African National Union – Patriotic Front (ZANU-PF) hasn’t changed since the November 2017. The August 2018 Elections haven’t changed the Presidency either. President Emmerson Mnangagwa is acting like nothing changed. While the public had faith in that, but the goblin left. Mugabe left. However, the Crocodile is acting like him. They are maybe to different individuals, but the ZANU-PF system is pumping like it was a year ago.
The Goblin did certain things. Now the Crocodile does the same. To way that the President have created growing inflation, lack of foreign currency, a fuel crisis and steady unemployment. Just like it was done under his predecessor. While the Crocodile has a short term and brief moment as the Executive. Still, he hasn’t done anything significant or used his powers to any good.
The Crocodile haven’t created much substantial, other than being endorsed for the next elections. That only months in. This before he has even done anything. The economy is in tatters, strikers are detained, shops are empty and fuel stations without fuel. ATMs without cash. Still, he is not the problem.
I was triggered to write all of this because of The Herald Assistant Editor Isdore Guvamombe, as the Herald wrote: “His propensity for political showboating through demonstrations is not only childish but self-serving especially when dealing with a mature democracy like Zimbabwe’s under Zanu-PF. Yes, they will allow him to demonstrate on the streets and yet at the end of the day, it is much ado about nothing, full of sound and fury, but signifying nothing. Nothing! Besides showboating, spending the day on the streets, the demonstrations of that type prove nothing. It is a waste of time by any standards. It defies logic — assuming Chamisa still has some semblance of it — that he wants to have talks with President Mnangagwa, yet he does not recognise him as the Head of State. What nonsense!” (Isdore Guavamombe – ‘Chamisa is THE problem’ The Herald, link: https://www.herald.co.zw/chamisa-is-the-problem/).
Why I am curious about that mature democracy, why are demonstrations and strikes shut down by a mature democracy? Why are activist left behind and never surface again? How come the election results was so hard to come by and looking like precooked stew fit for the ruling party? We have seen all of this mess before with the Goblin and the Harmonized Elections in 2018 was no different. Only the peaceful campaigns until the 1st August Post-Election Violence. That is the ZANU-PF under the Goblin and now also under the Crocodile.
The Herald Assistant Editor tried to mock and make Chamisa look foolish. As he is not Presidential or have the leadership skills. Not to the greatness and grand stature of ZANU-PF. However, the ZANU-PF cannot be that great, when they are every 10 years destroying the economy and making shortages of goods in the Republic. It is special to call Chamisa self-serving, when the ZANU-PF are serving themselves. That is evident in the case of Zimbabwe.
The Republic deserves better leadership, also another voice than the Herald. They are so entitled and self-praising, that the Assistant Editor doesn’t see his viciousness. Chamisa isn’t perfect, but that isn’t Mnangagwa either. However, Mnangagwa has had years in the leadership and doesn’t change. He acts just like Mugabe did.
That is why the Herald has to make a fool out of themselves in favor of Mnangagwa. So, they hope the naive… are eating it like candy, but they shouldn’t. They should think on their own. Peace.
