“But neither I nor the MDC can stand back any longer and just allow President Mugabe and the Zanu-PF to defy the law, to flaunt the constitution, and to act as if they own this country”…… Prime Minister Tsvangirai

Prime Minister Tsvangirai

I don’t know what planet the Prime Minister lives on, I have no idea why he has only decided to come to his senses now October 2010, I guess 2 years is a long time to mull over the relationship. Mugabe, ZANU PF and their supporters have have been at it for a very long time the corruption and violence continues. Teaching old dogs new tricks is a no no and we have seen it with the ZANU PF there was no way they were going to honour the GPA and if the PM ever thought they were going to be equal partners they were disillusioned. ZANU PF will hold on to power no matter the out come of the forthcoming elections, if he is in doubt he should give Mr D. Mutasa a call who recently said that the MDC will never rule Zimbabwe.

For over two years now Tsvangirai has been portraying Mugabe as nice guy easy to deal with and such a joy to work with and together they were going to save the world. I have no idea what spell the PM was under. When the GPA was signed we all knew this was going to be a bumpy ride for the MDC and Tsvangirai. Mugabe only agreed to the GPA because he was going to use the MDC as a crutch and indeed he did. He had the MDC flying around the world begging for aid and cleaning up the mess he had created back home. It has taken this long for PM to realise that Mugabe is not a man of his word, he promised all will be transparent and they will work together but we find that he still appoints friends and family to high positions in the Government with the consent of the PM. The PM is hardly involved in government matters or decision making. For over 2 years Tsvangirai has been playing Mr Nice Guy I dont know if he was trying to please Robert but this was a wrong move. ZANU are ruthless and desperate they are not going to play by the rules, you have to fight fire with fire. They bullied their way back into power after losing the rigged elections and you think they are not going to put up any resistance.

Tsvangirai claims he has had enough of the appointments of Ambassadors and governors without his say, the way ZANU carry on like they are not in a coalition, what is he going to do about it? ….write another letter to Jacob Zuma or run off to SADC who are now clearly supporting Mugabe’s campaign. The PM has been incensed by the Roy Bennett issue and Mugabe knows this, he is holding out as this is his personal vendetta against Mr Bennett. Analysts have often viewed the MDC as passengers on a bus with no idea of their destination and having no say how the ride ends…….they cannot be far from the truth.

The PM needs to realise that the GPA is just a front for ZANU to carry on, they do not care about what plans the MDC have or what they have to say. As usual Jonathan Moyo has something “smart” to say on the PM recent comments he recently come out and said that the coalition have delivered and all is okay describing the PM and his party as disgruntled employees who where after government jobs but did not get them. How the PM can stand aside while this abuse carries on is just beyond me.



This weeks top spot goes to:-  not an Individual but to Mugabe’s “Go to Guys”: ZANU PF Youth Militia. These are the guys ZANU PF calls upon to unleash terror in parts of the country that are not showing any support to Mugabe, ZANU and any opposition sympathisers.

This week they were in Masvingo, their Victims – Teachers. They beat up and terrorised Teachers who refused to demonstrate against Tsvangirai for failing to end targeted sanctions on Mugabe and his Zanu-PF cronies. As long as these militia groups are there violence would always be guaranteed in Zimbabwe. The majority of Zimbabweans do not want these sanctions removed so why target the teachers?

The education systems in Zimbabwe is on it knees and the very few teachers left in the country are further punished by these imbeciles. This is ZANU’s way of working well in coalition government.

Picture: Chris Kabwato

Jacob Zuma in London

The man with dubious sexual encounters strikes again,  This week he is in London serenading Queen Elizabeth II, she better be on her guard as JZ is always on point with the ladies as he brings with him his 3rd Mrs. I have asked a few of my South African friends what they make of their Premier and many  of them don’t really say much. Going back a few posts you can tell I was a staunch Zuma supporter (not the showering Zuma but the “I won’t stand for Mugabe Zuma”), one can say I was fooled by a politician but what’s new. On Mugabe, Zuma has gone from a roaring lion to a squeaking church mouse, how sad.

South Africa plays a very important role in the affairs of Zimbabwe hence the whole world criticising Thabo “wet towel” Mbeki’s Quiet Diplomacy Policy. Prior to taking the top job in SA Zuma was very vocal about the Zimbabwe situation and how he was going to clean up, but we have come to realise that this was just a campaigning stunt by the verile one. Once again we see another leader giving in to Robert Mugabe every whim, I’m  pretty sure even Tsvangirai himself is wondering what is going on with JZ.

Robert “Geritric” Mugabe is a shrewd conniving little pathetic old man who has been trying to get the shopping sanctions lifted by the EU  and US and this has been his calling card for a few months now he has used it against Morgan and now its on Jacob Zuma. Zuma in some weird way wants to see the GNU work out but the Geriatric One  has promised them no progress will be made until his wife can go shopping in Milan and cronies kids back in foreign universties. Jacob has been taken in by Robert Mugabe and that one thing he should have fought. Human Rights do not exist in Zimbabwe because of ZANU PF and why should they be rewarded by the removal of these Sanctions.

Now he goes back home with his tail between his after he has been told by a British Labour group to quit his call for the removal of sanctions. The people of Zimbabwe are tired of the suffering inflicted by Mugabe and his inner circle if we went to the Polling stations tomorrow Mugabe would not WIN. Jacob Zuma should spend his time explainig to Mugabe that this is the end of the road and that “his” people do want him anymore and its time to move on.

Jacob, surely making one nation happy is more rewarding than keeping one old man in Power.

We have established the sanctions and who is on the Sanctions List and we know they do not affect the the average Zimbabwean but Jacob is in London this week grovelling for the removal of the sanctions. He wants to be seen as the victor of the GNU without infuriting the old man, he is not doing Zimbabweans any favor by running around asking for Sanctions to be lifted. Zuma forgets Zimbabwe is in this situation because of Mugabe’s destructive and corrupt policies and he wants to keep him sweet. Mbeki went the same way and we were not happy with him so to you Mr. Zuma I say get your act right your popularity is waning in South Africa so mend you foreign policies.

Now he goes home with his tail bewtween this legs after he has been told by a British Labour group to stay away from the snactions. Jacob should understand that Mugabe is only in coalition Government because of his bullying tactics If Zimbabweans went to the polling stations today ZANU will nolonger be in power. Mr Zuma should spend his time explaining to Mugabe that this is the end of the road and the “his” people dont want him anymore.

Surely making a nation stable is much more rewarding than keeping one old man happy.

This one has been flyinging about for more than a year now and it just make me laugh out loud. The Geriatric one has been seen out and about with his eldest son Robert Peter Jr and this has led some speculating on Bob breaking the young one into ZANU’s dirty world of Politics. The kid is not old enough to become ZANU chief yet but if the Bob had his way I am sure he’d be in the position already. According to press reports the Kid takes after the mom and does not have the mental capacity to pass his O-levels let alone run a well oiled criminal organisation like ZANU.

Personally I dont see how he can head ZANU, the infighting is well under way and there is no way the Mujurus and Mnangagwas are going to let some Kid run the Party. These two factions are at it always trying to out do each at any given chance, but then again this is ZANU PF anything is possible because the “godfather” has been around for so-long he might just get the Puppet Leadership position to keep the Mugabe name alive after the Geriatric one has gone. I dont think we ahve to worry about this one as ZANU will nip it in the bud for us all.

One thing I can tell you Robert Junior is that you will never lead the people of Zimbabwe. The old man has caused enough damage to the country and after this chapter is closed thats it we never want to hear from another Mugabe again, the name is synonymous with greed, death, abuses, corruption and all the bad issues the country has gone through in recent times. Enjoy the State House now as you will never be back. Mwana wenyoka inyoka, therefore we  wont go down this route……again.

Sizzla – Zimbabwe

Mentally Disturbed Mugabe

Mugabe is at it again the “Geriatric Drama Queen” is planing on defying the Kimberly Process as he is against halting the civilian abuses taking place at the Marange diamond fields. Mugabe wants to sell them elsewhere, this is no surprise as we all know the Geritric one has never played ball.

If Zimbabwe quits the Kimberly Process who are they going to sell their diamonds to…..Silly me the Black market of course. Mugabe knows you are never too far from an unscrupulous diamond dealer and I’m sure he is willing to get anything below the market rate as he gets something to line his pockets.

Mugabe has never been the one to play by the rules and we all know he is not going to start now, adhearing the Kimberly Process will only slow things down for him and his cronies.

Whilest on the case, any ideas where the 30kilos of diamonds that disappeard a couple of weeks ago ended up.

This weeks top spot in the Idiocy world goes to the Affirmative Action Group President Supa Mandiwanzira. Last eek the Zimbabwe Govt passed a racist destructive regulation (National Indigenization and Economic Empowerment Act) which requires business to hand over 51% ownership to Black Zimbabweans. Supa was so excited that he equated this to Zimbabwe getting independanc in 1980.

They are very few productive companies in the country that survived the poor ecnomy of the country and ZANU is ready to take them over in the name of Indigenisation. 1st the farms now business. We are all for the spread of wealth but racist destructive policises are not the way to go.

Mr Mandiwanzira is a very good Journo and has achieved a lot for himself but this just shows that the ZANU blood flows through is veins and cant wait to get his hands on a few companies……

Funny what greed does to a you, you are willing to sound like an idiot while lining your pocket.

Get a grip Supa

Words fail me, but I’ll give it a go……In Zimbabwe “Zuze” is a name given to a dodgy character and the Idiot of the Week has lived upto his name.

Magistrate Samuel Zuze convited and fined a group of farmers who were refusing to vacate farms they have occupied for more than a hundred years. The farmers then filed an appeal in the High Court which Zuze failed to recognise issuing an arrest warrant and eviction orders.

One would ask why Zuze was not letting justice prevail and ask questions as to why he is in such a rush to get rid of these farmers…..Well the answer is Magistrate Samuel Zuze is a direct beneficiary of the land and grab and is about to take over one of the farms. He should never have ruled on this case as he was not goin to be impartial.

Magistrate Samuel Zuze can be contacted on +263 91 25 20994, give him call or send him a text, let him know what you think.

Magistrate Samuel Zuze’s OFFER LETTER

The Illusive

Makedenge is the officer commanding the Law and Order section of the police but he finds time to ring journalists and threaten them with death.  This man needs to be stopped before it’s too late; well for his wife it is already too late as she committed suicide.

This man has been behind the abductions and torcher of anyone he feels is a threat Mugabe and ZANU PF. Why Tsvangirai and the MDC do not request investigations or the step down of the Chief Superintendent is beyond me. Recently his wife commited suicide  and questions have been asked and her family requested the suicide note she left behind mysteriously vanished. Although this was public knowledege Makedenge has decided to take out his frustrations on the Freelance journalist Stanley Kwenda who wrote story. Makedenge rang Kwenda on a Friday evening and told him he would be dead by the end of the weekend. Kwenda took this serously and fled the country as these animals are capable of anything.

  

 

Mentally Unstable

I dont know if this man is just trying to make the headlines or he has had a bit too much Zanu PF Lager.

Webster Shamu is blaming the West for the Togo attack. He claims that Western countries are trying to disrupt the World cup in SA. I ask myself, Why is the Information and Publicity Minister coming up with such humorous and irresponsible statements.

We know ZANU blames the West for everything wrong in this world but Shamu is a new entry, we are used to Robert “Geritric” Mugabe ranting the minute he gets an audience. Do they blame the West for the killings and beatings during the elections, the abductions, the rape and the country’s humanitarian meltdown of the Zimbabwe.

Its time to change the record as we are all bored now.

Mugabe is the one who came up with with “One Family-One Farm” but you find him building up his a farming empire owning 12 Large  commercial farms among them the infamouse Gushungo Dairy Estates (taken from Ian Webster), Gushongo Farm (taken from John and Eva Matthews), Leverdale Farm, Sigaru Farm (taken from Joe Kennedy), Bassil Farm near Mazoe, Highfield Farm and a collection of six farms near the Darwendale area.

Didymus Mutasa not happy with the 10 farms he owns has recently been in his home area of Rusape threatening farmers to vacate their farms.

I can go on and on about who has how many farms and who is leading farm invasions and I’ll be here all day. ZANU PF have refused for a land audit and have not given valid reasons for this, the only reason could be that they don’t want to be found out. They don’t want Zimbabweans finding out that their greed took over only to leave them hungry and struggling while they build up their farming empires. Mugabe and Zanu PF give a new meaning  to the word corruption.

The hypocrisy here is unbelievable, Zanu goes on about how the whites were getting rich off the land (no doubt this did take place ) but at least the people were fed. Most of these farms are now in the hands of idiots who do not have a clue about farming or managing a farm. It is pure greed and I cannot wait till the land audit and these famrs are taken away from these thieves. ZANU PF remember Mobutu Sésé Seko

Shameful

The idiocy of Disgraced “Bishop” Dr. Nolbert Kunonga has reached astonishing heights. The “Bishop” has turned nasty, he has gone from grabbing farms with Mugabe’s help to hounding Anglicans out of Churches.

The man is insane how a person of his standing has gone from a Bishop to a monster is beyond belief, he has employed the heavy hand of Police and Youth militia to deal with worshipers.

Dr Insane has done his best to destabilize the Diocese of Harare, orchestrating attacks on Anglicans in the city. He really should be idiot of the decade based on his past activities.

Happy New Year!

MUGABE SPEECH at DENMARK CLIMATE SUMMIT

Your Excellency, Mr Lars Lokke Rasmussen, Prime Minister of Denmark,

The Executive Secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change,

As my delegation left the United Nations General Assembly hall on the 22nd September this year, we felt encouraged by what we saw as a commitment by all countries towards a successful outcome of the Copenhagen Conference.

We were assured by what appeared a palpable global realisation that indeed our planet was in great danger because of the planet unfriendly model of development pursued by some of us in the so-called highly-industrialised developed world, all to our collective detriment.

The consequences of that development model on our planet have become all too abundant to be denied or ignored, they become more poignant each day that passes, that includes today.

If we still have any more doubting Thomases, let them visit sinking island member states whose communities today face dim prospects of inexorable collective extinctive drowning.

Let them visit our part of the world where rains fail, where the searing sun scorches everything brown, and lifeless, including our ever diminishing livelihoods. The prospects of meeting our MDGs or other welfare targets agreed to nationally, regionally and internationally grow dimmer everyday.

We of the developing world are drowning, we are the burning, indeed we are the tragedy that climate changes have turned out to be for the larger half of mankind. Yet we never caused that crisis. We thus come here hoping for justice and fairness, indeed for decisions that recognise the urgency of our situation, that recognise the undeserved climatic endgame that stares us in the face.

But we are under no illusions about the enormity of the task that lies ahead. Negotiations on climate change have never been easy in the past, beginning with Real Earth Summit in Brazil, they have always been fraught. They will not be any easier today in this environment of the global financial crisis, again brought upon us by the same world that has corrupted environment. The little progress made so far at this convention bears this fact out.

For beneath the tip of well intentioned rhetoric on climate change lies the iceberg of power and aspirations to global dominance. We are dealing with vested interests. We are dealing here with dominant economies resting on a faulty, eco-unfriendly development paradigm, aspiring to misrule the world. In those circumstances, progress is bound to be glacier.

Climate change, the latest and by far the most encompassing and insistent crisis spawned by this hegemonic development paradigm, yet again reveals the interconnectedness issues of global imbalances by way of uneven development, by way of unfair trade, by way of unclean politics, by way of hegemonic values and by way of arbitrary power and governance systems.

The dominant north-south divide that has been the bane of so many international initiatives once again rears its ugly head on this very question, at this very conference. We are split along the same old north-south dichotomy.

Why is the guilty north not showing the same fundamentalist spirit it exhibits in our developing countries on human rights matters on this more menacing question of climate change? Where is its commitment to retributive justice which we see it applying on other issues? Where is sanctions for climate change offenders?

When a country spits at Kyoto Protocol, by seeking to retreat from its dictates, or simply by refusing to accede to it, is it not undermining the rule of global law? When countries spew hazardous emissions for selfish consumptionist ends, in the process threatening land masses and atmospheric space of smaller and weaker nations are they not guilty of gross human rights violations?

We raise these questions not out of spite or vindictiveness, but out of concern for our very endangered livelihoods. When these capitalist gods of carbon burp and belch their dangerous emissions, it is we, the lesser mortals of the developing sphere who gasp, starve, sink and eventually die.

We of Africa aligned with our other brothers in the developing world have made proposals predicated on principles of historical responsibility, common but differentiated responsibility and respective capabilities of parties.

We stand by the Kyoto Protocol with its full set of commitments which to this day cry for fulfilment. Late believers and late comers cannot be dictators at this conference, besides they happen to be among the guiltiest on this matter.

It simply has become imperative that the developed world, itself the leading sinner on climate offences takes serious and effective measures to cut emissions on the one hand, while supporting developing countries to adapt to and mitigate the effects of this man-made planetary, if not cosmic disaster.

May I say the developing world, itself the least offending on climate crimes, owns bio-carbon resources and carries in a sense the world’s lungs now solely needed for cleaning the world. Let that fact be recognised as our comparative advantage in world affairs.

The present global regime where resources are disproportionately allocated in terms of the degree to which a country endangers the climate is a skewed one. But surely, we cannot reward sinners, we cannot punish the righteous, we who bear the burden of healing the gasping earth must draw the most from the global pursue for remedial action.

We who tend the forest so badly needed to heal the ecosystem deserve better funding, and improved access to green technology transfer. We need to have our national capacities augmented so we are able to pursue the clean development paradigm underpinned by clean technologies to build a brave new world where humanity lives in greater harmony with nature.

We oppose climatic recovery paradigms predicated on denial of our right to development for the sake of cleaning the mess created by selfish countries of the north.

We have sacrificed a lot already. Zimbabwe continues to suffer from illegal sanctions unilaterally imposed on her by the west. Because of these undeserved sanctions, we have only been able to draw a mere US$1 million in the last three years from the Global Environment Fund. The situation is likely to grow worse in the wake of new changes to the operationalisation of this Fund.

Self interest and vindictiveness have apparently defeated the lofty goals of saving the planet. We deserve better support than we have had to date.

My delegation remains hopeful that this convention will reach some consensus on this very important subject affecting our planet.

Let me conclude, Your Excellencies, my remarks by expressing my delegation’s appreciation for the arrangements that the government of Denmark put it place to make our stay here comfortable. We will cherish memories of our stay here.

I thank you.

Like clock work Mugabe has once again recyled his speech at Copenhagen targeting the West, when is this man going to stop. They are always the same just a different venue. Surely the organisers of these summits know not to give this man time on the podium or just maybe for comical effect they slip him in.

Copenhagen Summit

Robert “Geritric” Mugabe is on another jolly, this time he is in Copenhagen not with a few security staff (as we all know he needs them) but with a delegation of 90 people. One would ask why such a huge delegation? Where does Zimbabwe get the money to sponsor such trips, in 2009  alone U$28 million have gone torwards jetting these blood suckers around the world. Mugabe is only in Copenhagen for a few days a small delegation  will only result in not many Christmas presents for the kids. So while Bob nods off at the summit  Greedy Grace has her sycophants running around filling up trollies with goodies purchased by the tax payer and funds recently donated to Zimbawe by all the other tax payers around the world.

The irony of this is after destroying Zimbabwe “Geriatric” is at the climate-change Summit to learn about saving the Planet, he has never been an environmentalist why start now. The only reason Mugabe is on this trip is to get out Zimbabwe for a shopping trip. He is not allowed in Europe excerpt only at UN hosted meets and he is making the most of it. What the Zimbabwean people want is their lives back on the road, their social and economic climate changed not for Robert to go galavanting the globe.

There is nothing Mugabe posess that is going to benefit the summit, a small team headed by Elias Mudzuri (Minister of Energy and Power Development) and Francis Nhema would have done the job.

Maybe I’m wrong on this one, maybe the real reason the Old one is at the conference is to confess and repent his sins (if this happens look up at the sky and you will see pigs flying by), maybe he is there to share his knowledge on how he destroyed the country contrubuting to deforestation, wipping out of wildlife particularly the endangered black rhino, he is there to share and advise other world leaders on how not to run a country in your old age.

One thing is certain, when Mugabe stands in front of that crowd he will surely use this platform to rant at the West and developed world about the sanctions that were imposed on him and some of his associates and how the Britain and the US are planning on colonising Zimbabwe.

Jacob Zuma

Before Zuma came to power he was a staunch Mugabe critic and we all could not wait for the man to get into office. We could not wait for the burial of  “wet towel” Mbeki’s Quiet Diplomacy Policy and the way he was pussyfooting around issues over the border, Mandela had not done much either but more of that some other time……Zuma also criticised Mbeki on how he had handled the whole Zimbabwe issue. Many looked at him as our “savior” from Geriatric but nearly a year on we are still looking for the magic. Don’t get me wrong I know Zuma has got his own domestic issues and the world cup to worry about, I didn’t expect him to swoop into Zimbabwe in his Superman cape but not putting any pressure on Mugabe has not helped matters.

Ian Kharma President of Botswana is the only Leader with a pair in Southern Africa, the Late Zambian President Mwanawasa was another one who did not have a soft spot for Bob and we all thought Zuma was another but it was just farce to feed his campaign. I hope he has one up sleeve because we all feel a bit fooled by him.

JZ once called ZANU PF ministers “adolescent” for a walkout they staged and promised not to follow policies of his predecessor. When his daughter Gugulethu married (MDC-T) Welshman Ncube’s son Wesley I thought for the sake of the inlaws getting along. JZ was going to go in on Mugabe. I think Mugabe was aware of Zuma comming for him but managed to woo him with his charm (didn’t know it still worked). The people of Zimbabwe do not want another Mbeki we do not want another South African President cosy with Mugabe regardless of how long he has been in power. Zuma better act now !

Commonwealth

The Commonwealth has recently hinted that  they are willing to readmit Zimbabwe as a member of the organisation if Robert Mugabe’s government mend their ways. Zimbabwe was suspended in 2002 and in 2003 Mugabe threw his toys out of the pram and withdraw from the organisation calling it an “evil orgainsation” (isnt he head on one). This man quest into making the nation believe there are evil dooers out there coming to get us does not stop. Commonwealth wants Mugabe to put things inorder before they fully accerpt Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe is not the first country to be suspedend from the organisation, Pakistan and  Nigeria have been there, Fiji is currently on a suspension. What makes Zimbabwe so special as to avoid supension. Both the Commonwealth and SADC have failed the ordinary Zimbabwean, Zimbabweans have been powerless when it comes to Mugabe’s evil regime and could have doen with some support from these organisation.

Mugabe is not going to be around for a long time we have got to show this selfish Geriatric that its not all about him. This man has alienated Zimbabwe from the rest of the world in every possible way, playing catch-up once he is out of the picture is not going to be easy.

We know Mugabe very well and he is not going to go out of his way to sort out the political and economical mess he created just to be accerpted. The SADC deadline is loomimg and he doesn’t seem to have pulled out a finger.  He is very stubborn, selfish and always quick to remind “his” people that its all for the good of the country. This mans pride has taken us a few years back and he hascrippled the nation beyond belief.  Zimbabweans do not want to live under colonialist nor do they appreiciate Robert Mugabe. Mugabe keeps on banging about the colonialists coming back and wanting to take the country over, this is all nonsense.

Robert Mugabe is out for himself and those that are close to him in ZANU joining the Commonwealth is not priority he does not care what happens to Zimbabwe and its people, he is more worried about sanctions being lifted so he can shopping overseas.

The world is now a global village Zimbabwe would benefit from rejoining the Commonwealth and re-intergrating with the International community. Zimbabwe stands to gain more if we got rid of Geriatric than if he keeps wasting our time.

Keep up the good work ladies.
