Last kicks of dying MDC- kicking sympathizers
The recent dilemma visibly shown by the MDC-T
during the election period to date has abridged its value among its supporters,
who has failed to comprehend the decision making process. She have failed to
stand firm for a decision she would have made notably since the COPAC process.
Prior elections, the party had shown her
followers that she is indecisive as she had hinted that she will not take part
in any elections till reforms set in GPA were fully implemented. Surprisingly
this call came late after hints that elections were coming on the 31st of
August 2013, after wasting 4 years enjoy whims facilitated by their baby
national duties. The shocker came as they conducted their primary elections
before ZANUPF, in a bid to prove they were ready for elections compared to
ZANUPF that looked visibly unorganized to observers terms and not theirs. The
contrast came when they held primary elections but rushed to SADC to have the
date postponed by a month. SADC then raised their hopes by asking the GPA
Principles to approach the ConCourt to file papers requesting postponement with
14 days. They tripped back from Maputo with victory celebration, worsened by
civic groups that joined them in celebration. A celebration for getting an
insignificant result that was their first positive outcome. They literally
blinkered their minds and eyes to believe that SADC too has reformed to accept
their linen in public. Having the SADC advice as it turned out to be than a resolution,
the date wasn't changed. They went stones about it, possibly convinced that
ZANUPFs disorder gave them leverage in the elections. So they thought the
elections were in their bag already. The call for reforms died a natural death
leaving their supporters in electoral suspense and confusion. They became a.
surprise party than the MDC-T.
They celebrated victory during their
rallies as they painted cities and crossed over on their finale rally. The
confused electorate and sympathisers were now in a visibly clear destiny,
31August 2013 it was game on. I won't dwell on the results that have shocked
not only the losers but even winners and observers.
The kicks continued to to kick supporters
as they went to the ConCourt to challenge the election outcome but worryingly
it was only Morgan who filled. Supporters and sympathizers questioned why h.
filled alone yet all felt rigged. Anyway, he filled his papers alone calling
the election a farce. The kick came when they alonside civics were
knowledgeable of the SADC. summit where Thokozani Khupe was heading to submit a
petition against fairness and credibility of the elections. Surprisingly,
Morgan withdrew his papers citing that the ConCourt was biased to ZANUPF, a
point they cited before elections when they called for reforms. The foolish
part of the surprising party was to hear that Thokozani Khupe wasn't aware of the
new developments rendering her trip null and aimless. The sudden U-turn from
the ConCourt that they had their papers filled despite having no trust to the
system. They tried to wash their dirty linen in public citing they had no
evidence and the evidence was with the accused. Well the bunch of lawyers at
the Harvest House has enjoyed the fruits of the GPA. to the point of forgetting
how to handle court cases and the court they were going personally identified
as incompetent.
The dilemma continued a few hours after the
presidential results; they called for operation boycott all government
activities to suffice their call for not engaging with an illegal government.
Illegal yes, but enjoyed 4 years as partners with ZANUPF, spare the people of
the marriage of convenience notion, you were partners, end of story. The call
to boycott came amid ignorance that those who won and lost used they own
resources, an investment they had done. They had won but spared celebrating
decided to mourn but their mourning was about to be personal. Breaking away
became the threat. The boycott died a natural death, supporters never heard of
the party's position. Only to see for themselves that MPs went for their
inauguration and took their oaths.
As they are randomly kicking, they citizenry
learnt that a bulk of the losing MPs also filled papers challenging the
election results in their respective constituencies just as Morgan did. We all
thought they were now awash with the much needed evidence. However, this alone
was not the reason why Morgan opted out, as previously indicated he did trust
the ConCourt would deliver. The dram/series continued and kicks rolled as the
citizenry got more confused and unable to comprehend reasons behind MDC-T
decisions. Evidence remains a ghost but greatly needed.
The drama continues as sympathizers are now
digging on their own before shocked by rumors that Cde Mugabe wants to add some
MDC flavor to his cabinet. A move that will see more confused kicks randomly
flying to the populace. Inasmuch we wait for their what happened rally as they
kick for another time if not the last.
