MDC Finance Minister, Tendai Biti, says Mugabe is too old to lead the nation. Mugabe and Zanu PF have made some monumental blunders in both in the running of the national economy and on the political front. MDC has failed to take advantage of these blunders and that is why the nation is stuck with Mugabe.
How many opposition parties in the world will fail to unseat the incumbent with a 95% unemployment record, inflation seating at 500 billion %, etc.
When Mugabe unleashed his thugs to beat, terrorise and murder people to “win” the presidential elections last year; the idiot even boosted that “only God” and not the electorate would him out of office; he had political sacrilege! No one would endorse such an outrage as a free and fair election. Not even the AU Election monitors, who had blindly endorsed rigged elections in Zimbabwe and in other countries in the past, would do so then. The threats, the violence and the murders were just too many and blatant to ignore. The whole international community simply refused to accept Mugabe as the “dually elected” president of Zimbabwe.
The sham 27 June 2008 had Mugabe of the hook!
Guess who helped off the hook? Morgan Tsvangirai! When Morgan Tsvangirai signed the GPA, he got Mugabe off the hook.
The very same Morgan Tsvangirai, Save, Biti thinks, Mugabe should hand power over to because “vachiri kutemwa dzinobuda ropa” -is still full of life and bountiful energy.” I do not know about being full of life etc. and, frankly do not care; what Zimbabweans want to know is whether he is a “full shilling”.
Mugabe is a brutal dictator and that is the reason why Zimbabweans want him to go – not because he is old. But, damn it, we do not want to replace a dictator with an idiot!
