Demonstrations do not form a Government
THowever, the electorate is not gullible to confuse anarchists who do not want the system to work and thugs who want to exploit a situation, with the majority who from day one have operated with impeccable non-violence and clear goals for a better Zimbabwe founded on democratic principles.
HERE is disturbing misconception in the opposition camp that what they need to get into power are banned marches and banned demonstrations; with a self-serving Western international community at the behest of muppets such as Evan Mawarire and Patson Dzamara.
Methinks these chaps doth protest too much. Surprisingly, back home you also have a clueless Didymus Mutasa, the convenor of Nera demonstrations, threatening to lead demonstrations from the front.
Surely, Mutasa of all people at the front! I am sure it will be quite a scene.
However, what the opposition is failing to understand, and we must forgive them because failure is all they know, is that no matter how many demonstrations they carry out, a new Government will never be formed through such.
In fact, it can only be formed in spite of the demonstrations. What they need to wait for are the 2018 elections.
The sooner the opposition camp understands that they need to woo the electorate, the better for them.
A further misconception is that the hundred or so hoodlums that participate in their demonstrations actually make up the entire electorate that is going to make them win the next elections.
Surely, a handful of protesters in New York can never make any electoral difference. Surely, the Mawarire antics of preaching nonsense at the headquarters of Twitter can never be the dose needed to win an election 10 000 miles away in a sovereign southern African country.
The gallery to which the demonstrators are preaching to are not even registered to vote in this country therefore they will never make a difference no matter how much the charlatans may huff and puff until they are blue-black.
That nonsense can never transform Zimbabwe into a colony of the US, Britain or Australia.
The situation has become so desperate for these opposition gangsters such that they easily forget that Zanu PF still has grassroots support, that President Mugabe still has millions of meaningful supporters everywhere around the world.
Unfortunately for them, they remain pieces of copper and silver in the fiscal political scheme of things.
Shakespeare was referring to them when he said, “Coins always make sound but currency notes are always silent, so whenever your value increases keep yourself calm and silent.”
Zanu PF is fully aware of its value to Zimbabweans and it is fully aware that the time to strike is during the 2018 elections through the ballot box.
The electorate has no doubt that demonstrations must be dignified and non-violent, which has not been the case with the overwhelming protests of the Western-sponsored marches of late.
However, the electorate is not gullible to confuse anarchists who do not want the system to work and thugs who want to exploit a situation, with the majority who from day one have operated with impeccable non-violence and clear goals for a better Zimbabwe founded on democratic principles.
For how long should opposition forces emerge, fight losing battles and become defunct as they wait for Zanu PF to lose elections?
Imagine the desperate measures of the Western-sponsored Tajamuka and Nera.
Imagine a group calling itself the North America #thisFlag hosting a conference call with Mawarire, Patson Dzamara and Rufaro Kaseke in New York and planning a demonstration against President Mugabe at the UN headquarters.
Imagine if Kenyans were campaigning in Zimbabwe for their next elections, or if Zambian President Lungu had been campaigning in South Africa for his PF party. It goes without saying that he would have lost.
However, we now know that the hash- tag protesters are not concerned with winning elections, the not-so-clever chaps are only concerned with lining their pockets, period!
Demonstrations in New York or anywhere else in the world against President Mugabe or Zanu PF can only happen when a clueless opposition finds itself so anxious, so restless and so desperate that they run out ideas on how to win an election.
Being so used to losing elections, they do not want them anymore in the mistaken belief that their childish tantrums will help them form the next Government. What an abomination! We have rampant insanity in this country with loafers roaming around aimlessly, demonstrating against their own constitution from here to New York and back.
They globetrot to the US, the UK and South Africa braying, bellowing, quacking, mooing and hissing that they do not want majority rule in Zimbabwe.
Well, majority rule is why the second Chimurenga was fought and majority rule is the reason why President Mugabe and Zanu PF are in power.
And just one last word of advice to our desperate opposition, the majority are found within Zimbabwe, and that majority will defend their sovereign right to elect a leader of their choice no matter what.
The power-hungry minority opposition must not waste its breathe trying to grab power unprocedurally.
Dubulaizitha!
