Engraving Mwonzora’s political tombstone

DOUGLAS Mwonzora has no political currency and does not know exactly which political party he intends to lead. Currently, his party is suffering from an identity crisis and has been caught in a catch 22 situation whether to use the MDC-T or MDC-Alliance name.

His rally slated for this coming weekend is being advertised as MDC-T rally.

The MDC-T leader is trying to fool the electorate by continuing using the late Morgan Tsvangirai’s photos on his campaigning material.

What he is failing to understand is that Zimbabweans are very much aware that the MDC founding leader is now late, even those staying in the most remote areas are very much aware of that.

To show that Mwonzora cannot match either Tsvangirai or Citizens Coalition for Change leader Nelson Chamisa, he has opted to hold a by-elections campaign at Zororo Grounds in Highfield West on Saturday, instead of the traditional and ceremonial Zimbabwe Grounds where the late Tsvangirayi used to pull huge crowds.

This launch is going to expose the man who purports to be leading the biggest opposition political party in Zimbabwe.

Mwonzora is trying to be relevant in Zimbabwe’s political circles, but deep inside, he knows that he has been relegated to the dustbin.

He actually lost the plot when he started dining and wining with the unfashionable Zanu PF through getting support from armed riot police and the military to seize control of the MDC Alliance headquarters and other offices countrywide.

Mwonzora’s politics of deception and tomfoolery has come to a dead end.

He must be reminded that politics is a game of numbers, not seizing properties and looking for validation by a captured Judiciary.

His statement that he wants to jettison politics of hate, toxicity and acrimony and replace it with politics of tolerance and rational disputation leaves a lot to be desired because he was the architect of recalling MDC Alliance’s Members of Parliament, hence these by-elections today.

He hates the people and is power hungry.

The people can’t wait to put the final nail to his political coffin on March 26, 2022 and are ready to burn his fingers in the ballot box.
