Lovemore Madhuku tells Tsvangirai he will not rejoin the
MDC as other small political parties have done in response to the latter’s call
for a united front. Madhuku is right in doing that.
Madhuku has been right on a number of issues in the past notable
his dismissing of the Copac Constitution as a weak and feeble one that would
not deliver free and fair elections. And in a rare show of unity MDC and
Zanu PF supporters and leaders alike closed ranks in shouting down Madhuku and
all those agreed with him on this. Full credit to Madhuku, he stuck to his
guns.
As predicted the 31 July 2013 elections were a farce as Mugabe went on to blatantly rig the vote. And so Madhuku and all those who had dismissed the Copac constitution as rubbish were vindicated.
If Madhuku had formed a united front with MDC at the time of the Copac constitution then he would have been silenced by the zealous but brainless Tsvangirai and his mob.
Tsvangirai and MDC have been a total failure because it is a party of deadwood led by one of the most incompetent leaders of our time. Mugabe and his Zanu PF dictatorship have too been a total disaster; their insatiable greed for power and wealth has been their greatest forte!
The core problem found in all our political parties past and present is the lack of quality leaders. A united front of all mediocre parties out there will accomplish nothing as long as the core problem remains untouched.
Just before independence, Zanu and Zapu were argued to unite and form the Patriotic Front (PF). The only thing the two parties had in common was that both were committed to establishing a one-party dictatorship and the total annihilation of all the other parties. Neither party wanted to be seen as the spoiler so they agreed to the unification of the two parties but each carried the assassin's dagger in their coat.

They accepted a change in their party
names. Zanu added the PF in front must like the offensive horns
of a bull on musk whilst Zapu added the PF much like the defensive tail armour
of the armadillo or pangolin. It was not long after independence before
the two parties were on each other's throat in a power struggle that costed
over 20 000 innocent lives.
Madhuku is right to rebuff Tsvangirai's overture to unite all the country's opposition parties. Unite for what end and purpose? And unite behind a failed and incompetent leader like Tsvangirai? S*****t!
