1/5 When President Mugabe announced he would vote for @nelsonchamisa, and not @edmnangagwa, on the eve of the 2018 elections; it was on the back of lots of ground work that had been done by "G40" around the country, in some provinces more than in others, since the Nov 2017 coup!
2/5 The "G40" 2018 Chamisa campaign didn't extend to MDC; as shown by the messaging & the results. Hence ZanuPF won 145 out of 210 parliamentary seats, out performing @edmnangagwa who got 125. Chamisa won 85, outperforming MDC with 63; he won the poll but it was stolen from him! pic.twitter.com/D2fHua6a4H
3/5 In actively & openly campaigning for @nelsonchamisa in 2018; and exposing the stolen vote since then, in various fora including here; President Mugabe & "G40" never said they wanted to join the #MDC; never. IT WAS PURE COALITION POLITICS. Only dogmatic cultists don't get it!
4/5 With President Mugabe no more & MDC-A cultists running amok with their intolerance and immaturity, surely things cannot be like they were in 2018. Just like ZanuPF can't have a one party state; a one party opposition is untenable. No one will beg anyone for anything pre-2023!
5/5 If there's anyone who still thinks "G40" is @Hon_Kasukuwere, @PatrickZhuwao, @waltermzembi and me; then that person knows nothing useful about real politics in Zimbabwe. Some of us, certainly I, have seen @nelsonchamisa as the best foot forward but maybe we are in fact wrong!
