EDITOR — Morgan Tsvangirai, once a firebrand politician, is increasingly becoming a liability to Zimbabwe’s opposition movement.
His naivety on the Ari-Ben Menashe issue, his misjudgment on the “Final Push” demonstrations, his inability to keep the MDC together, and his subsequent failure to deliver on the “Winter of Discontent” mass protests speak volumes of his leadership deficiencies.
It is now crystal clear to all and sundry that Tsvangirai has exhausted his energy and it is now time for him to step aside and give up the reins of power to someone more agile and capable.
It should not be forgotten that were it not for Tsvangirai, President Robert Mugabe would have been out of power as we speak. I say so because the rejected draft constitution of 1999, which Tsvangirai opposed vigorously, had a stipulation that would have legislated President Mugabe out of power by 2004.
This year alone, Tsvangirai has been completely out of touch with the people save for the time he promised winter protests during the MDC congress in March. Right now as the men of the cloth try their very best to negotiate President Mugabe out of power, Tsvangirai has sought to hijack their mission and claim their agenda. It is now important more than ever that the leading opposition leaders stand up firm and show Tsvangirai the exit door.
