Zimbabwe Premier Morgan Tsvangirai ensuring GPA agreements are honoured by Coalition principalsAt the start of the month Mavambo Kusile Dawn (MKD) spokesman Denford Magora whose Zimbabwe Blogspot claims pole position in Zimbabwe and is rated in the top 100000 worldwide readership proudly published the scoop that President Mugabe had disembowelled the Information Communication Technology Minister Nelson Chamisa’s by reconfiguring the Ministry and parcelling it out to his confidante Nicholas Goche in a new Ministry christened Transport Communication and Infrastructure development leaving the MDC appointed Minister a shell Ministry responsible for communications hardware and software only.
The clearly ecstatic MKD spokesman went further to allude to numerous other scoops he had broken claiming the MDC-T was nowhere near Executive Power levers in the coalition government and was there simply to nursemaid Mugabe and Zanu PF’s who is doing all in his power to cut Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai to size at every turn possible..
With explosive disclosures like these how can the blog not catapult to poll position in readership in Zimbabwe which is anxious to see the Global Political Agreement (GPA) implementation proceed without the numerous glitches dogging the process.
Alarmists like Magora who breakout sensationalised variances to the GPA that suggest that the most popular leader in Zimbabwe at present is being used as swipe cloth to clean the Zanu PF mess without any real power devolving to him are bound to attract the attention of the multitudes that have banked trust in the Premier.
“Which means that Nelson Chamisa is now a minister in charge of shops that sell cellphones, phone shops and computer shops. Even the matter of the Internet has now been taken out of his hands. Mugabe was never going to allow the instruments of eavesdropping, wiretapping and spying fall into the hands of the MDC. They are a junior partner and had to be put in place,” Magora disclosed with the authority of a president.
After warning him to take it easy and report his scoops factually rather than the fiction that portrayed him as the know-all about the MDC-T goings on when he knew nothing about inside workings in the party Magora turned onto Zanu PF and in unbelievable fashion tried to sanitise his alarmist statements by claiming he had unearthed new evidence showing the Premier and his party had outflanked Mugabe and refused to be trapped by the octogenarian leaders procrastinations on the Reserve Bank Governor’s unprocedural re-appointment for a second term.
In the warning I made it clear all outstanding issues at variance with the GPA litter and spirit were still very much up for discussion and resolution by the principals and were scheduled to be resolved by the end of April at the latest.
In the event that materialised I reminded Magora that i would not miss the opportunity to rub it in him for his misguided ecstasy.
At the centre of his ecstasy was the fact that MDC-T and in particular Premier Tsvangirai had been silenced over complaints about unprocedural appointments of Provincial Governors, Reserve bank Governor, Attorney General, Permanent Secretaries, swearing in of Roy Bennett, and now the stripping of the ICT responsibilities from MDC-T’s Chamisa in favour of Zanu PF’s Nicholas Goche at Transport and Infrastructure Development.
No sooner had he admitted lying than he was at it again claiming MDC was playing second fiddle to Zanu PF and had only one use for Mugabe that is to get sanctions imposed on Zanu PF leadership lifted.
The vocal MKD spokesperson is not amused that several MDC functionaries masquerading as online news sites quote him in a manner he believes is tantamount to plagiarism of his scoops and has threatened to be nasty with the publications and bloggers who as he put it are “online thieves of his intellectual property.”
But as a prospective political party spokesman whose blog acts as the MKD website he has to learn that whatever he says regardless of whether it is said in his individual capacity or on behalf of the movement he belongs to attracts analysis and citation by any sell respecting analyst of the political events unfolding in the country. His comments cannot be divorced from MKD politicking against other parties he writes scoops about which scoops are their intellectual property as well.
But back to the real deal in his recent instalment Magora bragged that he has no time for these online thieves “(a group of only twenty or so blinkered Tsvangirai fanatics)” as he calls them.
Theirs is according to Magora “a forlorn and lonely battle to salvage the reputation of the Prime Minister and his MDC who are now so firmly in the pocket of Robert Mugabe that they are now the dictator’s currency, with which he pays to get out of the isolation the world had imposed upon him.”
With such provocation I will excuse whoever Magora has in mind in this attack if they quote him verbatim as I have done to get back at him.
There is no sacred cow in politics that can distort facts with loaded and inaccurate personal and group political beliefs and thought and expect to be left to carry out such demoniac work on political opponents’ unopposed while he paints his movement as the saintly saviour for Zimbabwean political dilemmas.
In the same instalment Magora claims he has only authorised reproduction of his articles by the Zimbabwe Mail and on an ad hoc basis by TalkZimbabwe.
“I myself never read any of the online stuff, except for SW Radio, Nehanda Radio, VOP, the Zimbabwe Mail, the Zimbabwe Times, the Zimbabwe Metro and the recently added Mukoma .com plus foreign publications,” Magora lied.
Unless the listed are the 20 or so online thieves reproducing his works without permission we can safely conclude that he must have read them elsewhere.
But since he saluted the professionalism at SW Radio it is evident he has no qualms about that publication thus leaving the others he said he reads if that can be believed.
But the real story is Magora must be shell shocked with confirmation coming from SW Radio that the issues he said were water under the bridge after Mugabe unilaterally disposed of them have been negotiated and produced the following results;
The Provincial governors will be allotted 5:4:1to MDC-T yes the impotent and junior partner in the coalition government MDC-T, Zanu PF and MDC-M respectively.
Roy Bennett will be sworn in as Deputy Minister of Agriculture subject to him being cleared of banditry charges hanging over his head subject to agreement by the principals.
Nelson Chamisa will retain charge of the Ministry of Information Communication Technology in its original format except that the snooping and eavesdropping function will be assigned to Nicholas Goche subject to approval of the principals.
Only 13 of the current 34 Permanent Secretaries Dr Misheck Sibanda had announced Mugabe had unilaterally appointed to head Ministries will be assured of their jobs and the rest will have to wait ongoing deliberations between the principals.
Appointment of Ambassadors and the sharing of the 25 remaining Permanent secretaries together with the thorny issue of continued farm invasions will be dealt with on Monday or Tuesday4-5 May 2009 to dispose of the contentious issues that were amusing the misinformed MKD spokesman.
These are the reports emanating from his reputed professionals at SW Radio and they seem at variance with what his so called scoops were telling us.
Just wondering how the blog that thrives on lies will react to these emerging revelations.
We are sure Magora will be professional enough to admit his scoops were speculative as opposed to being factual in content.
