human rights activist warns new President of Zimbabwe

The new president
of Zimbabwe, Morgan Tsvangirai must be careful about entering into
unity with the criminal Zanu PF government of Robert Mugabe. Tsvangarai
won 27 March 2008 presidential elections therefore he should have
control of the country, Army and Police. If SA President, Thabo
Mbeki's deal does not give Tsvangirai executive powers or control
of key areas such as the army and police then the MDC should not
accept it.
Zanu PF has
not surrendered they are still fighting on for power. Most likely
they have plans to assassinate Tsvangirai after entering into unity
government. Tsvangirai has survived so many assassination attempts.
Zanu PF leaders are not even repentant of this. There is no evidence
that they have changed their wicked intentions. If the MDC leader
is assassinated then the struggle against their wicked control of
the country will have suffered serious setbacks. Just like in Angola,
the murder of UNITA leader, Jonas Savimbi meant the death of an
effective opposition and success of the wicked, communist MPLA.
Zanu PF can
use even cunning means such as plane crush or road accidents just
to murder Tsvangirai. Unity with Mugabe will be a serious error
by the opposition MDC. It will even be fatal if that unity does
not give Tsvangirai control of the Army and Police.
Zimbabwe has
been characterised by Zanu PF state corruption, rape of thousands
of opposition women, murder, abduction, and torture. All these capital
offenses need to be punished for. The victims rejoice and recover
when they are avenged. This will prove difficult and impossible
if Zanu pf is still in control. Since it was responsible for sending
its partisans, police, army, CIO, war vets and militias to destroy
opposition supporters. Zimbabwe need justice not the so-called truth
and reconciliation commission that will seek to pardon Zanu PF rapists,
kidnappers and murderers. It must be known by all that criminals
are villains who should be punished accordingly and be effectively
restrained.
Refusal to punish
criminals is not mercy or love but hatred of one's neighbor especially
the victim. Justice must be done, so that God may be glorified and
criminals and potential criminals live in fear. Zanu PF leaders
are corrupt all these years have been embezzling public funds. If
there are still in power or control how can Zimbabwe get rid of
massive corruption?
Zimbabwe Anglican Bishop
of Harare, Sebastian Bakare warned about Mugabe's intentions in
unity government. In his address to the Lambeth Conference in UK,
the Bishop recalled that in December 1987, Mugabe signed a Memorandum
of understanding with the then opposition leader, the late Dr. Joshua
Nkomo of ZAPU. "It ended up with Mugabe's party swallowing
the other party (ZAPU) and Mugabe is still in power today,"
said Bakare.
Bishop Bakare went on
to say, "l want to believe that they on the opposition side
are aware of that pact and aware that Mugabe is not there just to
hand in power."
The struggle continues,
Zimbabwe must realise justice. Zimbabwe must not settle for less.
Freedom and true liberation is around the corner, we need more wisdom
and sacrifice. Think deeply about this. Take action for true freedom
and liberation of Zimbabwe. Help the suffering and starving people
of Zimbabwe.
