Defending The Indefensible

George Charamba cannot fool us with his pseudo Marxist rhetoric, espoused in this Saturday's Manheru column, published in full here.

Charamba - If he is a Zanu (PF) and Mugabe spokesman, then the Ministry of Information should have a separate Permanent Secretary who is  chief public relations officer for the inclusive government. Chicken To Change Video

When Zimbabwe had its first presidential candidate to successfully challenge President Robert Mugabe and come out victorious, one would expect all opposition to join hands to bring about a new political era in Zimbabwe.

One would think the emergence of new presidential aspirants would not be an issue considering the fact that their participation only ensures that ZANU PF remains in power.

It seems Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai has become the latest victim of Nigerian trickster, "Prophet” TB Joshua who uses claims to have helped people in high places to "prove" his supernatural powers.

The Pastor has reportedly also played similar tricks on the Ghanaian Under 20 football team (the Satellites) and on Premiership footballer Nwankwo Kanu, according to The Ghanaian Journal, which, also claims that he is holding the Ghanain Presidency in his supernatural hands. PM stung by trickster Pastor?

It is now 13 days since the SADC summit ended on August 17 and there has been no movement on the three outstanding issues which the Summit recommended should be settled within one month.

In fact President Mugabe categorically stated three days after the Summit that he will make no further “concessions”, and would not implement the agreed formula for sharing provincial governorships, until sanctions have been lifted.
