(HERALD) Tsvangirai must never rule Zim
Tsvangirai must never rule ZimEDITOR — Allow me to remind fellow Zimbabweans that the liberation struggle was not a one-day event, it was a process that took close to a century. Many lives were lost and many people were maimed, but at the end we got our independence. However, political independence per se was not enough, we had no control over our economy and resources.
Land, the prime objective of the struggle, had to come back to us, its rightful owners. When the Government was about to embark on agrarian reform the Westerners — many of whom were absentee landlords — vigorously resisted. Part of that resistance culminated in the formation of the MDC.
The imperialists were furious and are still furious with President Mugabe. This is why he became the talk of the world, was condemned by the white West and is still being vilified for daring to address a glaring colonial imbalance.
Tsvangirai globe-trotted asking for illegal sanctions, he even begged South Africa to cut fuel and electricity supplies to Zimbabwe. Our economy was sabotaged; we have hit hard times and people are struggling to make ends meet, decent meals have disappeared from some tables, and the future looks bleak. But through it all, Tsvangirai has been on cloud nine dreaming that the hardships will force people to vote him to power.
Well, some almost did on March 29, but let us learn from our mistakes. This man, Tsvangirai, does not care about Zimbabwe. All he wants is to justify the millions of pounds he received over the years, by giving Zimbabwe to Britain on a platter. It pains me to hear Tsvangirai claim that he pioneered the land reform programme, when all he has been doing is try to reverse it.
If he supports the land reform programme, where is Munyaradzi Gwisai today? Why was he expelled from the MDC? Wasn’t it because Gwisai was backing the land reform programme, against the wishes of the Westerners, the real owners of the MDC?
To my fellow Zimbabweans, I say let us endorse President Mugabe in the re-run in defence of our revolution and all the gains that go with it.
Tsvangirai must never, ever rule Zimbabwe come hail, come thunder.
