DEPUTY Prime Minister Arthur Mutambara is one of the most energetic and emphatic members of the inclusive government. He is being accorded acres of space in the State media to rally the nation behind the coalition's efforts to revive Zimbabwe's comatose economy. Despite some rough edges to his personality, inevitably by-products from his days as a student activist, the learned Professor has been ...

For your own information we no longer have the "current illegitimate ruling Zanu Poofs and Muggy Grab", what we have now in Zimbabwe is a Unity Government formed through the GPA that was signed by the three parties (now ruling the country) that got the most votes on March 29, and June 27, 2008.
I am not being apologetic of anything my dear friend. I support President Mugabe because he is principled. I support President Mugabe because he pursues the best policies for my children. I support President Mugabe because he is the face of liberation struggle in Zimbabwe.
I support President Mugabe because he has not faltered on his promises; he promised to provide schools to my children - thousands have been built since 1980, he promised health to all - many hospitals and clinics have been built, what only remains is providing the necessary drugs, he promised to built universities for my children - every province now has at least two universities where there was only one for the whole country at independence in 1980 and every province has at least four technical colleges, he promised to liberate my land - he has done just that and I am now a proud owner of a fertile piece of land that I never dreamt of getting.
What more do I want except to support a supportable leader, who is incorruptible, has been consistent and persistent in his quest to totally liberate the House of Stone. Any Zimbabwean who does not recognize and appreciate what President Mugabe has done and continues to do is insane and has to be mentally examined.
laybak68, I wouldnt take Takunya too seriously, he posts his nonsense on here all the time. He's so paranoid and delusional, he actually has posted that he believes the CIA invented homosexuality and spread it to africa. So you can plainly see he is quite delusional. But I'll let his posts speak for him, you can come to your own conclusions about our "board clown".
This analysis is dead on. Simple and clear. Zimbabwean politicians need to refer to the GPA for direction in trying to uproot the problems bedeviling Zimbabwe. Try to follow the GPA to its letter and things will change dramatically. ZANU PF is at the core of everything wrong and until SADC and AU realizes this, Zimbabwe will not be pulled out of these throes. We do not expect anything from these organization, anyway. They are composed of like-mindeds bend on stayinng in power.

This editorial analysis is too far off the mark. It is actually going around in circles instead of tackling the real issues. The GPA clearly states the steps to be taken to rebrand Zimbabwe.
The first and foremost step is to lift the illegal, diabolic, racist and barbaric sanctions imposed by the west because of the land reform programme we undertook. The next step is for those who campaigned for these sanctions to acknowledge and admit that they are responsible for the destruction of our economy.
The third step will then look at how to correct the wrongs that MDC, Tsvangirai, Biti and all those responsible for calling for ruinous sanctions on the people of Zimbabwe, did to make the Zimbabwean economy what it is today. Anything else is peripheral and will fall into place the moment these issues are tackled honestly.
The other thing that needs to be looked at closely is what the Swedish Ambassador said. How can our own indigenously crafted GPA "entails what is needed for the EU to be able to reengage with Zimbabwe"? What this boils down to is that imperialists still want to tell us how to contact our internal business and affairs in Zimbabwe.
It also means that all these issues that are in dispute were inserted into the GPA at the insistence of those who imposed racist sanctions on us. MDC should tell its masters and so-called "strategic partners" to back-off and leave us to solve our own problems at our own pace. If they don't, they can rest be assured that anything detrimental to our sovereignty will NEVER be implemented.
We have to fully understand, first before committing ourselves and future generations, what the implications will be to us and posterity. It does not make any logical sense to adopt something that will impact negatively on our children.
Britain today has not adopted the Euro although it is a signatory to the documents that established the currency. Why should we rush things simply to please Sten Rylander and his imperialist colleagues?
If these are the conditions or the price we have to pay to get filthy lucre, then the lucre can stay, they can keep it to themselves instead of poking their long noses into our internal affairs. We have not invited them, so they can just keep or stay away.
Peter C, I suggest you read my post about Takunya above. no one takes his ramblings seriously. The boy is an idiot.
an who takes you seriously mr. the pretenders will come out of their false armour and will be led in the righteous path of the real. Biti telling his own boss infront of his kids that he is lying about the chinese dollars. Tsvangirayi telling the salvating coloniser that Mugabe has a big heart and farm invasions are exagerrated, Zwisai telling the world that there are no blood diamonds, PM repeating that Mugabe is and will always be and equation. Things fell apart. The agenda is lost. Muchadeyi Masunda moaning that the Harare residents voted trash into the city councillor. They cant even read and interpret unscientific council minutes. Then we have Prem, Ms Zola Budd, The All White Territory Independent (AWT) hopefully its not from Orange Free State, saying all is going to be Good. I warned this guys, Chickens will come roost. The pretenders are being exposed in 4 months. Then ZanuPF pretenders where much better it took 29 years for then to exposed. Whats the ratio of intelligence Prem? Oh! you might be one of the HCC pretenders. I will tell you theoritically its 100:1 pratically you cant compare the two. One is so disorganised that everyone is a spokesman, Maridadi is white elephant, Chamisa has been demoted, Bango is not even there. Rise Biti and swallow your so unimportant lips. Who is the boss? Thats what we expect in the goverment beyond ZanuPf. Its scary when pretenders cant even communicate by drums, whistling, or lighting up smoky fires.
Ok ok ok, First things first, Ok , Down with Bob, down with Bob, Rob Mugabe before he robs you. 2nd thing, time for bob to go, 3rd thing, Bob get lost. 4th thing, bugger off bob, 5th thing, Bob can kiss my backside.
Zola, after all that give Mugabe a thunderous goodbye of footsaks with one finger - the middle finger.
Kjrs, after the middle finger then when Bob dies he can be buried next to ZanuPf house ( Chibuku House) on that street aptly named Rotton Row.

Man oh man!! I have hardly ever read so much mind numbing drivel in my life. You are nothing more than a apologist for despotic activities in Zim. What are you really afraid of! Do you think that to not back mugabe and zanu PF will be the death knell for you? I find your logic very disjointed and biased towards the current illigetimate ruling Zanu Poofs and Muggy Grab All i Can so juvenile! If you have ANY real and corrobarative arguments and facts----by all means let us hear them Hmmmmm??
