PRESIDENT Robert Mugabe yesterday poured scorn on outgoing Prime Minister and MDC-T leader Morgan Tsvangirai, saying he “can go hang” if he is not prepared to accept the July 31 poll verdict which saw Zanu PF win by a landslide.
EVERSON MUSHAVA/OBEY MANAYITI
Addressing thousands of Zanu PF supporters attending Heroes’ Day commemorations at the National Heroes’ Acre in Harare, Mugabe vowed that the MDC-T would never be allowed to rise from its crushing defeat.
The entire MDC-T leadership — including Tsvangirai and his MDC counterpart Welshman Ncube — boycotted the commemorations although Deputy Prime Minister Arthur Mutambara, who leads a breakaway faction of the MDC, did attend.
“Those who cannot accept defeat are wasting their time. They can even go and hang if they want, but even dogs will not sniff at their corpses,” Mugabe said, in apparent reference to the MDC-T.
“Never will we go back on our victory,” said the 89-year-old Zanu PF leader who was declared winner with 61% of the votes against Tsvangirai’s 33%, although the latter has dismissed the poll as flawed and launched a court challenge.
Tsvangirai, who is demanding a forensic audit of the election material and fresh polls within two months, has launched a petition with the Constitutional Court to have the poll results set aside.
The matter is set to be heard tomorrow.
Several Western countries and Botswana have also questioned the credibility of the polls.
Sadc Heads of State and Government are expected to discuss the matter at their summit in Malawi over the weekend.
However, Mugabe yesterday warned that taking him to court over poll results was a futile exercise.
“We have heard they have gone to consult a witchdoctor. Beware, they could be embarking on a futile exercise that could backfire,” Mugabe said to wild applause from his supporters who were waving party berets and national flags.
“They (MDCs) are the thieves, but they say we have stolen the election. We kept quiet when they stole the 2008 election using bogus non-governmental organisations. How can they say we are thieves when we have taken what belongs to us?
“The people have realised that they are thieves and voted them out. They are down and will never rise again. We never give the power to thieves,” he said, adding that the MDC-T were conduits of the Western powers.
“At some point, sellouts emerged from amongst us — those who allowed themselves to be used by our erstwhile colonisers to take our land from us. But we thank the people of Zimbabwe and truly we fought hard and we won.”
Mugabe also took a jibe at Western powers that have refused to accept his victory, describing them as affronts of the same democracy they purport to subscribe to.
“We voted democratically. We brought democracy. We have delivered democracy on a platter. If they do not want to take it, let it be, but the people have delivered it,” he said.
Turning to his Zanu PF government’s next five-year plan, Mugabe said they would focus on infrastructure development, improve health and education delivery systems and boost the manufacturing sector with emphasis on the party’s empowerment agenda that would see indigenous Zimbabweans control all sectors of the economy.
He pleaded for unity and also promised to fulfil the pre-election promises he made to the electorate among them, adjusting civil servants’ salaries.
“We have promised to address the issue of salaries and conditions of living. We pledge to fulfil this promise this year.”
Meanwhile, about 1 000 people gathered at the Manicaland Provincial Heroes’ Acre in Mutare to commemorate Heroes’ Day, a much smaller crowd compared to thousands of people who attended Zanu PF rallies in the run-up to the just-ended harmonised elections.
However, Zanu PF Manicaland spokesperson Charles Samuriwo defended the low turnout, saying it was not a Zanu PF event or holiday, but a State function.
“The question should be directed to the citizenry on why they do come to party events and not national events. As a party, we are happy because there are people here with Zanu PF regalia,” Samuriwo said.

Instead of seeing giants in the land please open your eyes and see opportunities; instead of murmuring that it was better in Egypt (Rhodesia) please shut up and leave because no one is forcing you to be where you are, cheap black labour is needed in South Africa and Europe, many bums to clean there.

According to the idiot who wrote this pathetic piece, the words ‘Tsvangirai can go hang’ were never uttered by the President. Instead, the idiot who wrote this pathetic article put this disclaimer: “Mugabe said, in apparent reference to the MDC-T” – zvakutonyadzisa izvi!
This just did it for me though: Several Western countries and Botswana have also questioned the credibility of the polls.

Scot no insults please. I think there is no monopoly of thinking in Zim. What we need right now is diversity of ideas that can pull this country out of the quagmire. No need to insult anyone who differs from you. There is a proverb that says ‘Great minds think alike but fools seldom differ’ The problem in this country is that of polarisation. We see things through either MDC or Zanu PF lens. The other problem is putting too much faith in politicians not in ourselves. Whether one voted for Zanu or MDC makes no difference since we all buy from the same shops and ride in the same combis.The only way Zim is going to pull through is if we all work together (may be using different formulae) but aiming at getting the same answer. Lets celebrate our diversity. I dont give a damn about which party one supports as long as we are patriotic.

scot
@ Pasi, by sharing the profits of our natural resources with whichever foreign entity is interested in acquiring them, our economy can grow to great heights. Please look up ‘sovereign wealth fund’ on Wikipedia or any other reference resource, Zimbabwe will be the 2nd African country to have such a fund soon. The government of Zimbabwe will direct revenue to The Infrastructure Development Bank of Zimbabwe (IDBZ), Agribank and The Small Enterprises Development Corporation (SEDCO) to manage the funds which will be in billions. These funds will go towards building physical and social infrastructure, funding agriculture and Small and Medium Scale Enterprises in the short term. China has 3 such funds and the rich Arabs are rich because of such policies. I do not answer by fowl language, there is another pathetic individual named Scott or Scot who does that for reasons best known to him/her/it.

Also, please warn your leader that simply claiming that 2 million people were denied their right to vote is not considered evidence on any court on earth (he will also insist that all those that were turned away were going to vote MDC T because the polling officers used witchcraft to determine who was to vote for who); figures imagined and manufactured are as good as fresh air in court; that is why the MDC T dossier will be tossed in the bin, not because the judges are friends of ZANU PF.

@Scott-thanx 4 ‘schooling’ me on how indigenisation wl develop our economy but honestly speaking yo explanation borders more on wishful thinking than reality,experience from d last 5 years has shown dat indigenisation has scared more than it has attracted investors.d job market is failing to absorb job seekers and if dat remains d same in d coming 2 years,there wl b need 4 policy realignement.
scot
Actually, my bro Pasi, it is quite the contrary! Please research on employee and community share trusts in Zimbabwe and you will be surprised by the staggering amount of dollars poured into communities in the past 5 years. Also, a lot of investors are interested in us and what we have, currently all the major mining companies have complied with government policy and no major mining company was scared off or shut down in the past 5 years. Be patient and do a cost benefit analysis, you will see that it is better to suffer now and enjoy later than to get a million jobs now and suffer later. The alternative policy (Juice), if I can call it a policy, seeks to empower the rich multinationals in the hope that we the people will eventually benefit from profits that trickle down. The last time I checked, Western Capitalism has not benefited any indigenous people of any country outside Europe because it is not designed to do that; even in Europe, many right now are homeless, broke, in debt and hungry because of Capitalism. Let us all put our leaders to task and hold them to what they promised us, President Mugabe and ZANU PF must deliver on the promises they made to us and if we all unite and speak with one voice then no single corrupt politician can steal the people’s wealth.
scot
By the way, my point is not to school you, you already know what is what. I am a supporter of policies that promote Afrikans and pull us out of poverty; whoever pushes pro-Afrika policies has my vote. I am also against racist and condescending white attitudes hence my absolute disgust with MDC T and its ties with rhodies. I mean, come on guys, Roy Bennett is calling for a parallel government in exile for the sole purpose of creating a hostile environment where the country is ungovernable. Why is it that your leader, Mr. Tsvangirai is not speaking against this and why are you people not telling bhunu iri kuti rinyarare? It makes no sense to me when some blacks rally behind an uncircumcised rhodie who is standing there opposing policies that empower blacks; makes no sense at all!

@ tatyiswa, please consider the following:
1. There is such a thing as economic sabotage, Al Jazeera is currently running a 3 part special series titled ‘The French African Connection’ that explores the dark and dramatic history of France’s relationships with its former African colonies paying particular focus on the French’s pursuit of neo-colonial policy; I recommend you watch it so you can see how the French government used murder and economic sabotage as tools to drive the locals to blame their governments for collapsing the economy and destroying social institutions. This is nothing new and it is sad to see how many are easily deceived and believe that it is their government that is hurting them.
scot
2. The US Government has threatened to extend sanctions against Zimbabwe and Tsvangirai has warned us of worse hardships in the future if he is not made President. Please note, the US Government has acknowledged the widespread and devastating sanctions against Zimbabwe, yet you and many others refuse to acknowledge the devastating impact these sanctions had on our economy. You and others still choose to believe that the sanctions were targeted against a few individuals and their companies yet the US Government has acknowledged otherwise. How sad!
