Tsvangirai has formed a coalition with Simba Makoni while Welshman Ncube and Dabengwa also formed an alliance. But Zanu said it wasn’t worried, as it was first to form such a coalition.

man said at a news conference. “Let’s see you beat that.”
Details of the coalition are sketchy, but sources said the deal
involves the president publicly calling for peaceful elections on one hand,
while the army beats up people on the other hand.
Contacted for comment, a political analyst said it was a clever
strategy.
In a detailed analysis, the analyst said: “It’s a clever strategy.”
ReplyDeleteA brief wave of excitement gripped Zimbabwe as they celebrated their quinquennial finger dipping ritual.
Some youths were left dismayed at the fact that only adults over the age of 18 were allowed to get a pink pinky. Other youths received the pity of a benevolent organisation that gave them fake IDs and bussed them in to finger dipping installations.
The rural areas were not to be left out in the joy of the moment. One Mutoko man even donned a teacher's graduation gown and cap for the occasion. The man however became a laughing stock when it was discovered he could read and had to be assisted. When asked after dipping his finger the man insisted, "I can read and write! I am a teacher."
Hahaha gud one
