LADIES & GENTLEMEN!, I THINK WE HAVE THE DICTATOR WHERE WE WANT HIM!!!


Harare resists Mugabe and Zanu (PF)
Police  reinforcements had to be summoned to help bar thousands of people from leaving a poorly attended Zanu (PF) rally, as President Robert Mugabe delivered his campaign speech at the National Sports Stadium last Sunday. Police struggle to bar people from leaving National Sports Stadium as Mugabe was delivering his speach at the National Sports Stadium. Queues of leaving disinterested people formed as soon as Mugabe took to the podium, to give his usual boring liberation war history at the rally. Some eight thousand people, mainly children attended the rally. Truck loads of riot police were ferried to the stadium to contain the thousands of people embarrassing Mugabe by their early departure.

Mugabe gave his speech while thousands of people were engaged in running battles with police and Zanu (PF) touts at the exit. The veteran leader bemoaned the urban voting trend which overwhelmingly favoured MDC at the expense of Zanu (PF). While Mugabe praise talked the Zanu (PF) empowerment policy and land reform, dozens of vendors were struggling to make ends meet through selling wares around the stadium.

Mugabe asked the wrong audience if they will vote him and Zanu (PF) at the polls. “You are not responding convincingly that you will vote me at coming elections. If you vote Morgan Tsvangirai and MDC, I will collapse dead from heart attack,” Mugabe told the rally. Hundreds of people interviewed by The Zimbabwean at the rally said they attended the rally out of fear, as Zanu (PF) youths in their residential suburbs would blacklist those who do not attend Mugabe rallies.

“The reason why we are trying to leave the rally in the middle of Mugabe’s speech is that we have no business at Zanu (PF) rallies,” said an elderly woman who identified herself as Mbuya Marjory of Epworth. She wondered how a self respecting political party could distribute regalia to children who are not part of the electorate. “This is madness.”

Mugabe took the opportunity to warn Tsvangirai against announcing election results as he risked arrest. “If Tsvangirai announces election results as he has threatened, police will arrest him,” said Mugabe. Mugabe warned the urban electorate against voting MDC, as this would cause more suffering among the nation. “Whites are waiting impatiently in the wings, to recolonise Zimbabwe in the event MDC wins July 31 elections.” Mugabe said Tsvangirai is a fellow black Zimbabwean who should not be physically assaulted with the Zanu (PF) fist, but beaten at the polls. At the end of the rally, remaining people could be heard hissing to each other disapprovals to Mugabe speech. Over 6.5 Zimbabweans are casting their ballot in a watershed election expected to usher in a new government. Following the disputed June 27, 2008 presidential election re-run, Zimbabwe was governed by a government of national unity composed of Zanu (PF) and the two MDCs led by Tsvangirai and Welshman Ncube.
