One of my favourite stories from the Bible is the parable of the prodigal son. Here is a story teaching us three things:
- sin of arrogance and greed
- the importance of admitting one’s weaknesses, humility and repentance
- the father’s forgiveness and joy at the repentant sinner
For someone who calls himself a pastor, a man of God, and always quoting from the Bible, I must admit I am disappointed with Nelson Chamisa. I think he is a con man masquerading as a man of God!
“THE SOURCE OF ALL WISDOM.. Wisdom is a gift from God.
‘For the Lord gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding.’ Proverbs 2:6.
Blessed Sabbath #Godisinit!” posted Nelson Chamisa on his X handle.
Lest anyone out there has forgotten, this time last year as the fever of the 2023 election grew Chamisa said repeatedly. “CCC will win big because I have plugged all the Zanu PF vote rigging loop holes. #Godisinit!”
We all know Zanu PF blatantly rigged those elections and both SADC and AU election observer teams have confirmed the election process was flawed and illegal. So flawed the process failed to meet Zimbabwe’s own electoral law requirements.
“Conclusion 13.3
The SEOM (SADC Election Observer Mission) noted that, as detailed in sections 6 and 7 of this report, some aspects of the Harmonised Elections fell short of the requirements of the Constitution of Zimbabwe, the Electoral Act, and the SADC Principles and Guidelines Governing Democratic Elections (2021),” stated the SEOM report.
Chamisa failed to deploy electoral agents at all the polling stations even thou he had the funds to do so, for Pete’s sake! He pocketed the donated money!
It is not as if Chamisa and his CCC friends did not know that with no reforms implemented Zanu PF would rig the elections ant that the consequence of participating regardless would be to give Zanu PF legitimacy and perpetuate the people’s suffering under the dictatorship . They have known all this since the 2013 elections!
“The (2013) electoral process was so flawed, so illegal, that the only logical step was to withdraw, which would compel SADC to hold Zanu PF to account. But such was the distrust between the MDC-T and MDC-N that neither could withdraw for fear that the other would remain in the elections, winning seats and giving the process credibility,” confessed David Coltart in his Book, The Struggle Continues 50 years of Tyranny in Zimbabwe.
So they have been participating in elections, “so flawed, so illegal, that the only logical step was to withdraw” out of greed. They knew Zanu PF would give away a few gravy train seats to entice the opposition to participate NO MATTER WHAT.
Chamisa insisted God was in the plan to participate in the 2023 elections. Surely God was NOT is a plan whose purpose was gratify the insatiable greed for the trappings of power for Chamisa and a few of his cronies at the expense of the millions now living in abject poverty under this Zanu PF dictatorship.
Chamisa has never ever admitted that he lied about plugging all the vote rigging loop holes, as far as I know. Worst of all, he has not only failed to acknowledge his wrong doing and repented; he is gearing to repeat the same blatant lies to con Zimbabweans to participate in the 2028.
Zimbabwe’s prodigal son is back home instead of asking for forgiveness he is demanding that he must have his brother’s share of the wealth! He is quoting Proverbs 2 verse 6 to back his demands! There is no wisdom in that nor is God in it!
The threat of Chamisa conning millions of Zimbabweans into participating in flawed 2028 elections to give Zanu PF legitimacy and perpetuating the dictatorship is real and it is incumbent on every thinking Zimbabwean to stop him taking advantage of people foolish enough to believe his lies.
Yes, we have some of the most ignorant, naive and gullible people on earth but that is no excuse for people like Chamisa to take advantage of these people, much less do so in the name of God!

"Wisdom is a gift from God," Chamisa tells us.
"I have plugged all Zanu PF vote rigging loop holes. #Godisinit!" he told us repeatedly before the 2023 elections. Was that wisdom from God too or was he lying?
Chamisa is a corrupt, incompetent and unrepentant upstart masquerading as a man of God for the purpose of conning and exploiting them.
Mark my words, Chamisa will come up with another lie, winning in rigged election strategy, to con people into participating in flawed 2028 to give Zanu PF legitimacy and perpetuating the people's suffering. We must stop this madness!
Zanu PF has rigged elections for 44 years, the last 24 years with MDC/CCC’s help, you have never complained. Indeed you are complaining that I should not warn the nation Zanu PF and Chamisa are conniving to rig 2028 elections too! Only a village idiot would complain!
@ Chinoti
You just cannot bear to hear the truth spoken about Chamisa. Well Chamisa conned you last yer and in the past, he will not easily do that again from now on! Chamisa lied about plugging vote rigging loop holes and he must admit it and never ever repeat the lie!
@ Baba Bradley Kay
"You are also corrupt , incompetent and Unrepentant upstair ,you masquerade as an intellet yet alyou are just an idiot as you always call others."
How is it that anyone was so easily conned into believing such an idiotic lie like “I plugged all vote rigging loop holes.” And yet millions were conned! Some nincompoops are right now defending Chamisa because they do not want to admit he lied.
No wonder we are a failed state! We have millions of morons amongst us and they have the vote!
@ Hopewell Chin’ono
The criteria for quality opposition leaders should not be limited to “commenting of corruption and other social ills”. There are people like Fadzayi Mahere who are quick to comment only for sake of attracting public attention. She has participated in these flawed elections since 2018 knowing full well the process is flawed and participating will give Zanu PF legitimacy.
Then there are those MDC/CCC leaders who were in the GNU and sold out on reforms. Others Kasukuwere have been critical of Zanu PF only after they were booted out of the party in 2017, until then they had played their part in creating the dictatorship.
Zimbabwe is a failed state ruled by Zanu PF buffoons who have remained in power the last 24 yers thanks to the corrupt and incompetent opposition and the ignorant and naive electorate. We need the electorate to be a lot smart than to judge future leaders on the individual’s social media profile alone. The real world is a lot more sophisticated than the binary choice of Chamisa vs Mnangagwa, for example.
Our pastors and politicians alike have taken advantage of our people being ignorant, naive and gullible. All the former wanted to do is fleece the people and all the later wanted is the herd’s votes!
Religion has become the opium of our people, they have been brainwashed into giving up on seeking justice and a decent life here on earth and seek instead one after life!
Chamisa and Mnangagwa are competing for church leaders' attention and the later is winning the rat race because he has digger pockets!
He has a lot to account for and it will take a lot of hard work to convince his 2 m in Zimbabwe and 2-3 m in the diaspora braindead followers to stop following the upstart blindly like sheep to the slaughter.
You should not under estimate the extend of the mental damage the Chamisa Chete Chete personality cult has inflicted. Most of these people’s brain has ossified into fat after decades of mental inactivity. These village idiots are refusing to accept Chamisa lied about plugging the vote rigging loop holes and some even believe that God is in all these idiotic Chamisa hare-brain schemes.
It will take a lot of hammering to knock some sense into these empty heads. I have a sludge hammer and hammer day and night!

Every nation has intelligent and stupid people. Has Zimbabwe's stupid overwhelmed the nation dragging it beyond the point of no return, the event horizon and we are now being sucked into the black-hole!

Zimbabwe is a failed state, a pariah state, ruled by the whims of a dictator and not rule of law. The whims of a dictator are like the wind you do not see it coming and you do not know where it is going. The masses have suffered under this dictatorship but so too are the chefs.
Minister of Defence, Oppah Muchinguri Kashiri's daughter being arrested for fraud is a big surprise not so much that she may well have a case to answer - she, like so many others in the ruling elite, certainly cannot account for her lavish lifestyle. The surprise is that she is being singled out! A classical case of being invited to the feast and being forked in the eye when you least expect it.
To end the failed state, we must restore the rule of law starting with holding free and fair elections; starting with stopping participating in flawed elections to give Zanu PF legitimacy and perpetuating our own suffering.
Will my stopping talking about rigged election do anything to stop Zanu PF rigging the elections or Chamisa and company participating to give Zanu PF legitimacy. The rigging and conniving in the rigging has gone on these last 44 years and 24 years respectively precisely because we have been silent for decades.
I am shocked that you are more concerned about stopping anyone talking about rigged elections than that the curse of rigged elections itself must stop. It speaks volumes of you; you do not even know what is in your own best interests, you would shoot yourself in the foot! The worrying thing here is your foolishness of participating in flawed election to perpetuate the dictatorship is affecting us all.
Give the vote to morons like you is like giving a monkey a loaded machine gun! One cannot reason with a moron, he/she “does not care!”
@ Godfrey
“We criticise among ourselves far away from the scene of the crime and critique coming up with brilliant theoretical solutions which simmer in our heads as individuals until they die off without reaching boiling point. What we lack is a spark that ignites all the simmering heads into a flame - you can’t start a fire without a spark. ( Here again another example of a simmering head missing a⚡️).
The people with potential to provide a spark that would ignite all into a big uncontrollable raging fire are NC - Job - Mawarire - Tsvangirai (had) - each in their own different style. All that is needed is to harness their power of influence towards the goal - we and everyone else do not have the balls and should look for a fully balled up one and rally behind them whilst we are still ignitable.”
You will never ever accept that MC, Job, Mawarire, Tsvangirai, etc. are corrupt and incompetent and hence the reason why they have failed to implement even one token reform in 24 years 5 of which in the GNU.
You insist “we and everyone else do not have the balls and should look for a fully balled up one and rally behind them” but will not accept that is what we have done these last 24 years and have nothing to show for it.
You have been given the evidence why the MDC/CCC leaders have failed you will never ever accept the evidence and so this is just a futile exercise. If we are going to have a meaningful debate we MUST accept evidence, facts and truth.
If these guys have the balls then why have they failed to implement the reforms even when they had the golden opportunity to do so during the GNU?
If Chamisa has the balls then why is he resorting to telling blatant and idiotic lies like ”I have plugged all the vote rigging loop holes. #Godisinit!”?
@ Cool Breeze
“Not participating would have been a bad move and this time you would be lauding kuti why didn't they participate.”
It was not only SADC who warned of the folly of participating in flawed elections, MDC leaders themselves knew this and here is what two of them said on the matter.
“Look, you can't keep on participating in flawed electoral processes that serve to give big benefits to dictators such as Robert Mugabe. Mugabe has perfected the art of winning elections. So it will be very foolish for the opposition to continue legitimizing these sham elections which don't deliver. This country will go through a serious economic crisis in 2020 caused by Zanu PF. And yet, this is the only country where a government doesn't perform, it is encouraged by a super majority in parliament,” said Tendai Biti in a 2015 interview with Isaac Mugabi.
“So you can't continue subjecting Zimbabweans to processes where their hopes just get crushed.”
“The (2013) electoral process was so flawed, so illegal, that the only logical step was to withdraw, which would compel SADC to hold Zanu PF to account. But such was the distrust between the MDC-T and MDC-N that neither could withdraw for fear that the other would remain in the elections, winning seats and giving the process credibility,” confessed David Coltart in his Book, The Struggle Continues 50 years of Tyranny in Zimbabwe.
MDC/CCC leaders have been participating in the flawed elections out of greed. You and the rest of the Chamisa Chete Chete diehards will never accept that MDC/CCC leaders are corrupt and incompetence because of your personality cult mentality. You brains have ossified into fat and is therefore impermeable to reason and logic. You have failed to comprehend the simple reality that by participating in the flawed elections you are perpetuating your own suffering by giving Zanu PF legitimacy.
You are vigorously defending participating in flawed elections. Only some one who is brain dead would vigorous defend an act perpetuating their own suffering!
I have become public enemy number one for daring to point out the sheer futility of believing Chamisa’s lies and participating in the flawed elections! Fcuk me! No wonder we are a failed state!
HARARE - Speaking to eNCA News, the ZANU PF Director of Information and Publicity Cde Farai Marapira advised the opposition that our national constituion is sacrosanct and any activity which attempts to undermine the rule of law within our country shall not be tolerated.
ZANU PF and its members also have a right to make sure that the laws of our land are upheld and cannot stand aside letting anarchy and disrespect of the law be emanating and permeating the length and breadth of our country.
This is to be expected, so Zanu PF is now religiously upholding the constitution and rule of law and yet failed to do so during the elections last year when doing so mattered the most! Our friends in SADC know that Zanu PF rigged the 2023 elections and is, per se, an illegitimate regime. SADC leaders will not be fooled by Zanu PF’s defender of the law and constitution pretensions; they know too well that not everyone who quotes the Bible has good intentions much less holy!
@ Tangwirei
“Last paragraph needs explanation how boycotting will affect zanu pf. Remember we have pple like mwonzora , madhuku and other hired opposition parties to participate and legitimitise the election. Pliz explain we want to know.”
So you do accept that it is folly for the ordinary Zimbabwean to participating in an election process that SADC election observers have condemned as flawed and illegal.
“Conclusion 13.3
The SEOM (SADC Election Observer Mission) noted that, as detailed in sections 6 and 7 of this report, some aspects of the Harmonised Elections fell short of the requirements of the Constitution of Zimbabwe, the Electoral Act, and the SADC Principles and Guidelines Governing Democratic Elections (2021),” stated the SEOM report.
But you are saying the people should participate in their millions regardless undermining SADC’s ability to deny Zanu PF legitimacy just to stop Mwonzora, Madhuku, etc. participating and winning the gravy train seats? How anyone can view that as a rational reason to participate beggars belief!Fcuk me!
No wonder Zimbabwe is a failed state; we simply have too many brain dead individuals and, to crown it, they have the vote! Poor, poor Zimbabwe; we are stuck and are doomed; there is no chance of getting out of this hell with such a brain dead electorate.

Religion is the opium of the people and that is combined with ignorance, it becomes a deadly drug. In Zimbabwe the pastors and the politicians have been feasting on the braindead masses like frogs stuffing themselves on the seasonal termites!
Will Zimbabweans finally learn and stop the insanity of participating in flawed elections just to give Zanu PF legitimacy and perpetuating their own suffering? After 44 years of rigged elections, will we finally learn what constitutes free, fair and credible elections!!!
@ A Anodeweta
“You are just a hypothetical academic analyst. It's not your fault.
If one party out of 40 absconds from the election, what would stop ZANU from proceeding to an election with the other 39. Work up to reality young man rather than spending time on hypothetical arguments.”
You still do not get it?
MDC leaders did not implement even one token reforms during the GNU because Mugabe bribed them with the trappings of high office and the forgot about the reforms. There were no 39 other political parties to worry about then.
Mnangagwa has increase the gravy train benefits including the POLAD benefits to all presidential candidate and US$ 40 000 paid to all the MPs and senators in November 2022; knowing fully well that would whet the opposition leaders’ appetites. So you think Chamisa and company were so hell bent on participating in these elections, he blatantly lied again and again to con people to participate, just to stop the other 39 parties winning just for the hell of it! They were after the gravy train seats themselves!
The issue here is not how many opposition political parties participate in these flawed elections but how many ordinary people participate too. If Chamisa’s supporters had boycotted the 2023 elections then 44% or 2 out of of the 5 million voters would have stayed away. Of course, this would have given SADC the courage to deny Zanu PF legitimacy given the electoral process was flawed and illegal.
You and the 2 million who voted for Chamisa plus the millions of other who cheered and applauded participated in the flawed elections because you believed Chamisa’s blatant lies of plugging the vote rigging loop holes. You did not have the intellect to see he was lying, even now with the benefit of hindsight you still cannot see you were conned.
How anyone can still argue that participating in flawed and illegal elections, just SADC and AU have condemned as such, to give Zanu PF legitimacy and perpetuate the whole nation’s suffering is the right thing speak volumes of individual. But it explains why Zimbabwe is a fail state - we have some mentally challenge individuals in Zimbabwe, millions of them!
@ Ffgh
“You are very insulting calling us all sorts of names:
1:we are ignorant

3:we are insane

Mr mukori You are the only super star in Zim, one man band
Jack of all trades, the wise one.
You see us as inferior complex second class specimen
Why are You so bitter, can't You see You are loosing it🙅♂️be introspective of self before robe in others🙏”
Insanity, according to Albert Einstein (not me) is repeating the same thing over and over again expecting a different result. Zimbabweans have been participating in flawed and illegal elections, according to EU, SADC and AU election reports (not me) for 44 years and counting. So Einstein would call Zimbabweans insane but you, no doubt, will call yourself wiser than King Solomon!
I am not interested in semantics, I call Zimbabweans insane, stupid, braindead, etc because all those are equally true. Of course, it is insane that we are failing to hold free, fair and credible elections in this day and age!
Your denying that elections were rigged, that Chamisa did not lie about plugging vote rigging loop holes, etc. does not interest me because I deal with facts and know that denying facts is foolish! Yes, you are foolish!

Sooner after the 2017 military coup, Mnangagwa promised two things:
1) zero tolerance on corruption
2) hold free, fair and credible elections
He has failed to hold free and fair elections and last year even SADC and AU condemned the Zimbabwe elections as flawed and illegal. It comes as no surprise that he has failed to stamp out corruption too; as long as Zimbabwe remains a pariah state ruled by thugs who are democratically unaccountable it is naive to think we can stamp out corruption, mismanagement and lawlessness.
Corruption has become worse since the 2017 coup, the nation is being rob blind. This madness must be stopped. We must step up the demand for democratic reforms and free and fair elections.
@ King Munhumutapa
So only those in Zimbabwe speak the truth? It is not what you say but where you are when you say it! Be rational is not one of your strong point, is it!
@ King Munhumutapa
Zimbabwe is a failed state. Zanu PF rigged 2023 elections, even SADC and AU have condemned the elections. Corruption has reached nauseating heights. Are you blaming me for all that too? What a nincompoop!
The Auditor General has done her bit and corruption has soared to dizzying heights because we the people have never lifted a finger to condemn the corruption. It is all water off a duck’s back! No wonder we are a failed state.

There is no secret to Singapore's success, Lee Kuan Yew embraced the same democratic values cultivated by Pericles during the Golden Age of Greece 2 500 years ago. Mugabe, Mnangagwa and all the other Zimbabwean buffoons who have led this country these last 44 years have created and nurtured the authoritarian dictatorship we have in this country.
Zimbabwe is a failed state and will remain so until we cure ourselves of the double curse of rigged elections and bad governance!
MNangagwa is the accused and yet he is also the witness, the prosecutor, mounting his own defence, the jury and the judge! And he is even threatening and/or bribing the witnesses!

ZANU PF masterminded Gambakwe's arrest in Zambia. Both Zanu PF and CCC are conniving in this farce.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-Z8uR10plY
It is a big mistake for Zimbabweans to compare ourselves with Kenya's Gen Z; the later is political awake whilst we are still in our sloth like political slumber. MDC/CCC are Zanu PF team B in all but name, playing for team A to win and have political legitimacy for a share of the spoils of power. Chamisa lied about plugging vote rigging loop holes to con us to participate in 2023 elections and will do so again in 2028. How millions can be so easily conned beggars belief!
I would say we need an educated, knowledgeable and diligent electorate because the present ignorant and naive voters will stick with the corrupt and incompetent MDC/CCC like a stamp to a letter. If they believed Chamisa’s lie about plugging vote rigging loop holes in their millions, what is there to make you think they will not do so again and again and agin?
@ Ben
Exactly! The call will be for the opposition to unite behind Chamisa “who has already proven that he has balls!” The very fact that he has failed to implement any reforms in 24 years and will be participating to give Zanu PF legitimacy; will be forgotten!

If urban dwellers are relying on push-cart for ambulance service one can only imagine the sorry state of the health care service in the rural back waters. And then you hear some buffoon insist Zimbabwe is on course to become an upper middle income nation in 6 years from now, in 2030. It is no surprise the buffoon rigged the 2023 elections or be it with the tacit connivance of CCC leaders who lied to con the people to participate.
The number one challenge before us is to make sure Chamisa does not con the ignorant and naive two million voters to participate in the 2028 elections and perpetuate this insanity of rigged elections!
