Sengezo Tshabangu, the self-appointed interim secretary general of the CCC, has once again proven he’s ZANU PF’s golden boy.
The man who’s been recalling opposition MPs faster than you can say “Agenda 2030” is now crying foul after his own party Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) tried to recall him.
Oh, the irony!
But don’t worry, folks, ZANU PF’s machinery is here to save the day, because nothing says “democracy” like keeping your favorite political pawn in play.
Tshabangu, the man who’s been wreaking havoc in the CCC since October 2023, recently got the boot for “indiscipline.”
Before the CCC could pop the champagne and recall him from the Senate, Tshabangu sprinted to court faster than a Harare vendor evading municipality police to stop his recall.
His argument, the CCC’s disciplinary committee was “improperly constituted.”
It even gets juicier, parliament’s lawyers decided not to oppose Tshabangu’s court challenge.
That’s right, the same Speaker and Senate President who’ve been rubber-stamping Tshabangu’s recalls like Wicknell Chivayo dolling luxury vehicles to ZANU PF supporters like candy decided to “abide by the court’s ruling.”
How noble! CCC spokesperson Willias Madzimure called it out for what it is: double standards thicker than ZANU PF’s last manifesto.
Meanwhile, Tshabangu is sitting pretty, waiting for his court date like it’s a season finale of Real Housewives of Harare.
The man who’s been ZANU PF’s not-so-secret weapon in destabilizing the opposition is now being shielded by the very system he claims to fight.
Coincidence, absolutely not.
Let’s call a spade a spade: Tshabangu is ZANU PF’s blue-eyed boy, kept on a leash to ensure Mnangagwa’s second term stretches into eternity or at least until 2030.
The opposition may cry foul, but in this political circus, Tshabangu is the star clown and ZANU PF is the ringmaster.
Buckle up, Zimbabwe. The show’s just getting started.
