SADC tell to delay election by two weeks; a waste of time because no reforms will be implemented!


SADC ask Mugabe to delay elections by two weeks at least and the MDC imbiciles are beside themselves with joy for what they consider a victory.

Commenting on the development MDC legal affairs secretary and education Minister David Colart said on Tweeter: “There are three reasons why SADC resolution is critically important; Firstly, it is a victory for the respect for the rule of law and the new Constitution;

"Secondly, it means that voter registration and roll inspection can be completed before nomination day and, thirdly, it constitutes a major political faux pas by Zanu PF hardliners and will be damaging and embarrassing.”

What reform does MDC hope to implement in two weeks? None! Without reforms Zimbabwe’s are elections are NOT going to be free and fair.

President Jacob Zuma’s international relations advisor Lindiwe Zulu told the UK Telegraph that the regional body will not allow another sham election reminiscent of the 2008 vote which claimed over 500 lives.

“Sadc is concerned that there should be an election that is nowhere near what happened in 2008,” Zulu said.

If Ms Zulu was a full shilling then she would know that implementing the democratic reforms is the only way to ensure free and fair elections and she would also know that no meaningful reforms will be implanted in the additional two weeks!

SADC will get their two weeks and Mugabe will still have everything, absolutely everything, he needs to rig the elections and ensure a Zanu PF victory. Both MDC and SADC are a waste of time and space!

If I was Mugabe I would move the date by the three weeks even. This is a get out of jail ticket for Mugabe. SADC is allowing him to get away without having one single democratic reform implemented and so he is free to use all manner of dirty tricks to win these elections and all he has to do in return is delay the elections by two weeks! Great

This is the same wishful we saw with the passing of the Copac constitution on a few weeks later for MDC to admit that the constitution was too weak and feeble to deliver free and fair elections and that the reforms needed to be implemented after all! We will be back to where we are today in two weeks’ time or so because nothing would have changed. There trouble is we have MDC leading this process and they do not have the foggiest what changes are required.

Zimbabweans have simply refused to accept that Tsvangirai and MDC are incompetent even in the presence of the mountain of evidence. We are in this mess because on Tsvangirai and the nation is going to pay a heavy a price for it as it is.

The nation can continued to see Tsvangirai as the hero they want him to be but that only means the nation deeper into the mess.

How naive can one be! So SADC really thing that Resolution "5) that the security forces publicly state or restate their commitment to the rule of law in particular their complete adherence to sec-tion 208 of the constitution." Will transform the ZRP into an exemplary Police force, Chihuri will round up all Chipango gangsters and arrest Jabulani Sibanda the next time he makes his outra-geous statements! What a waste of time!

If all that was required was for the security chiefs to get them to do their duties properly then why did the GPA call for democratic reforms? These are nothing but plaster stick on patches when a full blooded surgical operation was called for.

Of course a broken leg is not going to be cured by patches. There is a real danger of the patient dying unnecessarily because gangrene has set in!

What SADC must now realize is that by endorsing these stupid MDC ideas the regional body has per se accepted that they will achieve the desire effect and deliver free and fair elections.
