Zanu PF War Vet leader, Jabulan Sibanda calls Zanu PF leaders calling for Mugabe to go according to the WikiLeaks cables dogs to the rapturous applause from party conference delegates.
“Those people are serious sellouts, who pretend to like the President in his presence but go to the enemy behind him and criticise him. Dogs are even better than these people,” said Sibanda.For years we have heard of the two warring Zanu PF factions; the Mujuru and the “Ngwena” (Crocodile) Mnangagwa factions. How Mugabe, the loner with not even one person in the party he could call friend, has managed to play one faction against the other to retain the crown is a measure of the mental dexterity of the cunning fox.
Many of the Zanu PF big wigs like Mutasa and Rugare Gumbo had become increasingly bitter. Neither of the two factions considered them important for their cause and hence never bothered to invite them. Mugabe too must have considered them losers and so in his fight against the factions, he too ignored them completely. The WikiLeaks revelations have suddenly given Mutasa, Gumbo and all the other Zanu PF losers a life-line!
The WikiLeaks cables have revealed that a number of Zanu PF leaders had been calling for the removal of Mugabe. The Zanu PF losers are set to see all those named’s political wings clipped if not kicked out of the party. Such a move will break up the current factions and allow new factions and loyalty to emerge. They, hopefully, be the king-making, at very least! The very fact that there was such a loud cheer from the conference floor when Sibanda called those named in the WikiLeak “worse than dogs” goes to show there are indeed many “losers” beside Mutasa and Gumbo!
Ten years ago; the cunning old fox would have relished taking the WikiLeak “dogs” on. He is too old and feeble to do so now. After all the years of being played for fools, every one of these dogs would want nothing better than to go for the jugular vein if he dared take them on!
Millions of ordinary Zimbabweans hate Mugabe for the suffering and misery he brought on the nation. In a free and fair election Zimbabweans would “vote for a donkey than Mugabe,” Professor Jonathan Moyo rightly concluded. And like it or not Mugabe has to face the Zimbabwean electorate next year!
It suited Mugabe to divide his party into fighting factions; divide and rule. The in fight is now dog-eat-dog and the consequences, whatever happens, are not going to be pretty! Thugs like Sibanda and so too are many in the Police, Army and the notorious CIO are all throwing in their lot in the fight for political power.
It is the Zanu PF thugs who have carried out the lion’s share of the dirty work of the political violence that has kept Mugabe and Zanu PF in power. These thugs has had to contend themselves with nothing better than positions in the security sector. They had their fair share of the farms but, like everyone else, they soon realised farming is hard work. They are now aiming for higher jobs as MPs and Ministers denied them so far because they were not educated.
“A dog is not educated but it can understand better and defend its home than these people. Some of these people are even educated and some of them are even holding degrees!” Sibanda and his fellow thugs are pitching for the top jobs in the country!
Zimbabwe’s economic melt down has been devastating to the ordinary Zimbabweans; they have seen their hopes and dreams of freedom, a life with human dignity and economic security crashed! The Zanu PF ruling elite have not been spared either; with each passing year they love of power and wealth has grown and grown meanwhile the national cake has shrunk and shrunk. The daggers are out Zanu PF thugs will fight Mugabe to the death just as readily as they will fight and each other and their political opponents.
The Zanu PF vultures and hyenas are hungry and there is no much to satisfy their ravenous appetites. Mugabe nurtured all these ruthless creatures and is destined to be torn to shreds this party of ruthless thugs turn on each other.
Everything is piling up high for Mugabe and the old tyrant does not know which way to turn. No one is his right mind would want to be in Mugabe’s shoes; not for all the tyrant’s beautiful mansions, executive cars, thirteen farms, billions in foreign bank accounts, etc., etc. He would gladly give up all this wealth and the absolute power to boot for one hour of real peace of mind!
“The evil that men do lives after them” wrote William Shakespeare. “The good is oft interred with their bones!” The evil Mugabe has done is not waiting for his death; it is haunting him now and will continue to do so to the tyrant’s dying day!
