AS ANC LOSES CREDIBILITY

Mr Mbeki, I remember you writing a piece in which you were declaring that you were African. I remember wrestling with my simple mind at that time as to what you really meant or even the relevance of it. What surprised me the most was the fact that you come from Africa and you are black. I am quite sure that any person who has a working mind would have called you an African without even knowing where you came from and without you even declaring to that effect. Sir, did you really have to declare that you were African or there was a subliminal message you were trying to send the world. Was it the Mugabe connection you were trying to tell us? 

Sir, I saw you on a Diamond conference in Zimbabwe, with Robert Mugabe of course! One is free to socialize with whomever, they wish! However, sir, it was what Mugabe said about you that can never escape my memory! Welcome Tambo, you are one of us, said Mugabe! To which you responded with a huge smile, of which if Stevie Wonder could feel it, would have thought it was a piano.

It is not your smile sir, which has made me write this piece! Credibility is the only currency that matters in this world, you sir have lost it! In the legal world, criminal and murderers have walked free because a DRUG ADDICT or a PROSTITUTE was giving the evidence, its only credibility that matters. Your declaration of MUGABE`s victory being Free & FAIR was rather misplaced. You must have received something from ZANU PF; I want  to challenge you  to this allegation before we can come with the evidence. Sir I challenge you! Your statement on Mugabe about the election was self indulgent, reckless and mischievous. You are on Mugabe`s side, why should the people of Zimbabwe trust a person like you, sir, when your own people do not! In matters of Zimbabwe, it will be wise for you sir, to contemplate on the true meaning of the phrase `as quite as a grave`.

MAWERE DENIED ZIM ID

REGISTRAR General Tobaiwa Mudede last week blocked South Africa-based businessman Mutumwa Mawere’s application for a new national identity card, telling him that dual citizenship remains illegal even under the new Constitution. Mawere, who is said to be involved with a new political party but denies the reports, holds South African citizenship. He plans to challenge Mudede's decision at the courts as soon as the country's new Constitution becomes law. The new charter was recently approved by the legislature and now awaits President Robert Mugabe’s assent. Mawere told the RG in a letter on Monday: “You will appreciate that I also want to participate in the forthcoming general elections that will be held in terms of the new Constitution that clearly confers on persons like me the right to citizenship and consequently the right to participate in the elections as a voter." The former SMM Holdings owner said he was surprised when told Mudede wanted to see him as he was pr...

THE ROLE OF THE ARMY IN ZIMBABWEAN POLITICS

Image
THE role of the military has risen to the top of the political agenda as Zimbabwe’s fractious coalition debates the prospect of fresh elections in 2013 or, if President Robert Mugabe has his way, before then. The question haunting members of the MDC, the opposition party that joined Mugabe’s Zanu PF in a coalition government after violently disputed elections in 2008, is how the security establishment will react if the MDC leader, Morgan Tsvangirai, the prime minister, wins and becomes commander-in-chief. Serving and former commanders have been making menacing comments. Brigadier General Douglas Nyikayaramba, a commander in the national army, once accused Tsvangirai of being a “national security threat” and stooge of Western powers. He added in comments to the Herald, the state newspaper, that: “We will die for him (Mugabe) to make sure he remains in power.” Although many observers suggest such bellicose statements are posturing and that even Zanu PF has distance...
