The MDC secretary general, Charlton Hwende and the party’s secretary for elections, Jacob Mafume are revelling in their positions which they landed during the party’s May 2019 congress. The clowns are, however, sitting uneasily on their heads as the party’s largely restive and youthful members are cranking up pressure on the two following the MDC’s poor showing during the string of by-elections held in various constituencies and wards across the country last year.

Renowned African-Nigerian writer Chinua Achebe is well known for his famous novel, A Man of the People, which mirrors Nigerian political culture through the eyes of a corrupt politician, Chief Nanga. Closely reading the book now, one can’t help but wonder if those negative depictions didn’t have an inverse intended impact on its recipients, giving birth to Zimbabwean politician, Saviour Kasukuwere, who has turned out to be a replica of Chief Nanga - a womanizer, corrupt, power hungry and nepotistic in nature. Nanga was also a violent fellow who terrorised his perceived political opponents, who only lost his parliamentary seat after the army intervened to stop his political madness.

Each time the country approaches an election, the MDC goes full throttle lying to the electorate that they are the “party of excellence” and would win the elections despite doing absolutely nothing to earn any votes. However, after the elections the MDC will be singing a different tune – the alleged rigging of the plebiscite. What the party does not want to admit is that it is not as popular as it wants people to believe and winning the majority vote will never happen.
