Zanu PF might need Jonathan Moyo, but do you?

While Jonathan Moyo believes his vitriolic attacks on each and every person who ever found fault with Zanu PF policies have at last demolished all opposition, his actual achievement has been to demonstrate his and his party's complete contempt for the citizens of Zimbabwe.

Almost every line of his Sunday Mail piece on October 4 displays his belief that each and every reader is far too thick to see through his lies and deceit. The facts that the people do know and understand are that it is Jonathan Moyo who is guilty of treachery and it is Jonathan Moyo who is employing every means possible to ensure that the MDC's best efforts to help restore economic growth will be brought to nothing.

We are all perfectly aware that only the Zanu PF chefs feel threatened by the possibility of economic recovery. Jonathan Moyo has been drawn back into the Zanu PF ranks to make sure that the recovery does not happen. Why? Mainly to prevent the possibility that MDC will be credited for any such success, but also because the increasing prosperity of the Zimbabwean population would make it harder for Zanu PF to continue suppressing us.

Jonathan Moyo treachery has now been made manifest at many different levels. He persuaded the voters in Tsholotsho to elect him as their representative on the basis of his having completely rejected the Zanu PF's "unprincipled" policies. Now he insults them by claiming that, having rejoined Zanu PF, he still represents them. He does not, any more than he represents the casualties of Gukurahundi whose unmarked graves are still scattered throughout the constituency.

Independence message by Arthur Mutambara

What is imperative is for all opposition parties to close ranks and make the wishes of the Zimbabwean electorate a reality. In any run-off or re-run of the Presidential Election the support for Morgan Tsvangirai should be total and unconditional. There will be neither equivocation nor ambiguity on that subject. He represents the change that Zimbabweans voted for. The people spoke on the 29th of March. They seek no accommodation with the Dictator or any of his manifestations. All democratic forces must stand with the people in pursuit of the total annihilation of Robert Mugabe and all he stands for.
