| Simba Makoni promises Mugabe 'rude awakening' |
Simba Makoni (Former finance Minister and Mavambo
Kusile Dawn leader) has rubbished President Robert Mugabe’s remarks that the
MKD leader has no followers.Makoni promised the 88 year old Mugabe that he faces a rude awaking at
the next elections.
I am really finding it hard to believe that Makoni
might truly surprise Mugabe in the coming elections. Makoni’s claims are just
empty promises that he will never be able to fulfill as he is most likely to face the same 2008 situation and embarrass
himself again in the coming elections. I however understand that on his part,
this might be an attempt to come into the limelight after a long time of silence.He is trying to gain the public attention and approval so that people do not disappoint him
again as they did in the 2008 elections. Surely how can a candidate who
got 8% of the possible votes in the last elections expect to win the next
elections? What I think about Makoni at the moment is that his lame promises will not uplift his political status but instead will make him appear more stupid and confused.Seriously speaking,at first I had believed the promises he made just before the 2008 elections when he said he had several Zanu PF bigwigs who would support him to his victory,in the end however I was disappointed when only Dumiso Dabengwa and a few people voted for him.I cannot deny that when I first heard his claims, I really thought that he will get 98% votes instead of the 8% he ended up getting.It then makes me wonder what will be different this time, it is high time he wakes up and face reality that he really has no followers before he is humiliated again.
