 Dr Alex Magaisa exposes how Zanu (PF) hawks, misled by Jonathan Moyo and a shadowy columnist who calls himself Nathaniel Manheru, have been deceiving themselves about the fate of the Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai after the new constitution comes into force. He writes:
An article on page 2 of The Herald newspaper today mischievously and erroneously suggests that there is uncertainty over the future of the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM). Entitled, “Uncertainty hangs over Tsvangirai’s political status”, the article gives the impression that the adoption of the new Constitution will spell the end of the OPM and that Prime Minister Tsvangirai will only serve at the pleasure of President Mugabe.
PM Tsvangirai and Cabinet remain in office |

New Wiki-leaks document shows that even in private discussions with the so-called imperialists, the MDC-T never called for invasions or sanctions, but instead called for an eminent person to be dispatched to try to convince President Mugabe to alter his behaviour.
And just as in the present situation he was calling for election monitors ahead of the 2002 Presidential elections.
Instead Zanu (PF) was boasting about killing a defenseless white woman.

 Nathaniel Manheru is very good at hiding the trepidation that his party, Zanu (PF), is experiencing as elections approach while the party is in so much disarray, literally falling apart. Maybe that is why he would like to convince his readers that there is no transition to a new Parliament after the Government of National Unity (GNU) elapses.
Despite that this is in black and white in the negotiated GNU agreement - negotiated because the African Union ruled that President Mugabe did not win the 2008, as the George Chiweshe Zimbabwe Electoral Commission claimed - Manheru would also like to convince Zimbabweans that Mugabecan just call elections without satisfying Zimbabweans that the conditions which caused the death of 200+ MDC-T supporters have been removed. Kikwete and the SADC Organ Troika waking up from a slumber?

 President Robert Mugabe has been deceiving gullible Zanu (PF) supporters in Mutare that following the passing of the new constitution by the House of Assembly he would now only consult Justice Minister Patrick Chinamasa about the election date.
Newsday reported that Mugabe said in Mutare that he was supposed to meet Chinamasa in Mutare to get his recommendations on the possible dates for elections.

Simukai Tinhu, the Cambrige graduate whom we criticised recently for being out of touch for suggesting that Zanu (PF) would win the next election because of the diminishing popularity of the MDC-T, has come back with another gem.
This time, and closer to reality, he argues that Zanu (PF) violence and corruption, including internal blackmail that ensures that everyone remains "loyal," are the real reasons Zanu (PF) might be able to retain power.
The analysis exposes much about Zanu (PF)'s internal dynamics, but seems to fail in not considering how this loyalty is now being tested to the limit in the current fall-out which which is tearing the party apart.
Many attribute the fall-out to tribalism and believe that the party will not survive Robert Mugabe's exit. Tinhu also seem to fail to consider the increasingly important role of the region - SADC and the African Union - which forced Zanu (PF) into the current set-up with the MDC, a party which Mugabe did not want to recognise.
How might SADC and the AU react to Zanu (PF) flagrantly ignoring an agreement which they brokered and guaranteed at a very high cost to the region.
Maybe, like many others, Tinhu has also concluded that the SADC and the AU will simply talk and at the end of the day tell the parties to continue talking to each other, even while the country continues to burn, bringing the region down with it. Read his analysis here.
