The ability of our country to move forward will depend on leaders with integrity who are prepared to stand up for the constitution & govern by it. It will depend on the masses placing nation above government & truth above party loyalty. No more false starts #RehabilitateZimbabwe
For the record, APA & Dr Nkosana Moyo are not involved, in any capacity, with Saviour Kasukuwere. Dr Moyo was a guest speaker at the launch of Arthur Mutambara's book & Saviour asked for a group photo. Our political core values & those represented by Saviour do not align at all
@Simba_LionDRED@maximilianlion We have strong institutions probably up to the end of justice Gubbay era. At that time we also have citizens who were minded to speak up, hence the subsequent emergence of the NCA but after that, our people seemed to fold & many, began to focus on how to join the bandwagon
@maximilianlion@Fireking_d How to change? Through a complete break from the past. Accountability should not just apply to ZanuPF but in opposition as well. Condemning wrong doing in ZanuPF while defending it in opposition is typical. The desire for change must be driven by principle not "it is our turn"
@Simba_LionDRED@maximilianlion Institutions are made up of people. Even with rigging taken in to account 50% of voters opt for ZanuPF. Is this indicative of a country that wants change even in the face of repeated abuse? It is not the institutions, it is the lack of sufficient desire for the right decision
@maximilianlion@Fireking_d We were the only political party to speak against the coup. We did not attend the inauguration pointing out that a tyrant had left but tyranny hadn't. That did not get us any traction. Neither did our practical manifesto. Democracy will not restore itself! Voters must want it!
#WorkersDay#WorkersUnite On Workers Day we hail the widely recognised Zimbabwean work ethic. We remind you that the system we warned about during the coup, while other parties were celebrating with ZanuPF, is still intact. Direct your work ethic to change the system, not join it
#SecularState with freedom of association & worship. A country must be governed by the constitution & the separation of powers not by Taliban, Pharisee & Saducee type thinking. The modern state will thrive on sound economic management, national cohesion & regional integration
We always mark Independence day even if our liberation has been hijacked by greed and corruption of Olympic proportions to the point where we hang our heads in shame in the crassness of actions of those who rule over us and their hangers on.
By voting for ZanuPF, you signal that you are content with societal decay, the youth drug pandemic, destruction of our infrastructure & the wholesale looting of our natural resources straight into the pockets of a narrow elite & foreign interests. Your choice.
#VukaniBantu We do not need to issue a statement on the Gold mafia. The statement is best issued by the Zimbabwean voter. You can choose to endorse, aid & abet corruption of Olympic proportions or you can reject the tyranny of a small clique of elites. Your vote counts. Use it!
You can be part of that solution if you choose to & if you have a sense of legacy beyond your lifetime. "The best time to plant a tree is 25 years ago. The next best time is now". The choice, is yours.
It is also a consistent pattern of intolerance of criticism that is responded to with violence, insults, misogyny & entitlement. Take a step back & objectively look at how you criticise one & defend the other for absolutely the same behaviour. It is not helping our country at all
Do you want to change the system for the good of posterity or do you want to join it for short term gain? Look around you and the decay that is our society & country. Do not ask who has the best chance of removing ZanuPF, ask who has the best programme to rebuild our country.
#VukaniBantu! The first, second time a political party or charlatan tricks you, you are a victim. The third time, you are a volunteer. Forget the people who are paid to pour scorn on political parties that preach values based politics and governance. What are you going to do?
#VukaniBantu! At what point does a nation open its eyes? The loss of innocence with the Paweni maize scandal? Horrors of Ghukurahundi? Willowgate? Murambatsvina? Operation wavhotera papi? An explosive Al Jazeera report? At what point does a nation move from "gossip and scandal"?
#VukaniBantu! Will the latest and ongoing corruption saga achieve anything other than more gossip fodder? How many people will stop going to that church or will they blame the devil? How many will stop voting for that political party or is the gravy train way too attractive?
