My brother, I believe that you are prematurely drawing this political season to an end. My take on it is that this is just the beginning. The inauguration means nothing. It's just a hollow political act. There is concensus on the huge diplomatic coup that the opposition has scored against ED's regime. Let's let that play out. In my book, @CCCZimbabwe & @nelsonchamisa overwhelmingly won this election. It's for that reason that SADC's institutions have backed them. There will always be lots of room to improve in any organisation, but now isn't the time for a post mortem. Now is the time to ready the troops for an impending battle of wills that is just over the horizon. I am reading the situation completely different from you. ED & his regime won a pyrrhic victory & totally lost the war. The opposition will now need upping the ante on a strategic level to make their gains on the battlefield count. ED was clearly snubbed by SADC leaders. Him & his regime aren't blind. That's an unprecedented step in the history of the region. The stain of illegitimacy currently effectively renders ED a dead & stinking political carcass. He's going to struggle to govern. It's clear that we are heading for the season of diplomacy. That's where the opposition will need to be on guard. They will need to be alert, well briefed, resilient, adept & immovable on their core values. Short of an armed struggle, including to free my brothers Job Sikhala & Jacob Ngarivhume, this is the only way they could have advanced their cause. My view is that ED has deliberately made their release impossible for 2 purposes: 1. To send a chilling message to other would be dissenters and; 2. To create division & disaffection amongst opposition ranks; I lose no sleep over the Constitution, bank account, website etc deficits. I consider them to be basic minimum requirements which will be addressed in due course. Their absence has to be read within the context of the helter-skelter manner in which CCC was birthed in January 2022. It's true however that the longer this goes without being addressed, the more it'll rightly elicit criticism. The reason why FAZ & ED panicked & resorted to those self-defeating stone age tactics was due to the brilliance of the political operation mounted by the opposition in extremely difficult political conditions!
