The MDC is answerable to God and the people

The Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) must always keep in mind that it is answerable to the people and God. Therefore in the interest of truth and justice the government of National Unity must not be considered.

Thousands of People have died in support of the MDC. Millions are being starved. Tens of thousands have been tortured. Hundreds of thousands had their homes destroyed or displaced because of their support to the MDC. Unity government will be betrayal of those who have died for truth and the people of Zimbabwe who voted overwhelmingly against Zanu pf government of Robert Mugabe.

No unity government must be considered without the consent of the people. If unity government seems right then the people should be consulted. Churches, human rights groups, civic groups and the broad society must be consulted. For the MDC and Zanu pf elites to consider unity without consent of the people will be great pervasion and assault upon truth and justice.

We don't want to create another monster in the name of understanding, unity and political maturity. Proponents of democracy who wants unity government forged between Zanu and MDC will be guilt of political hypocrisy and the posterity will not forgive them. The government that won election must rule. We must go against the idea of unity especially after the corrupt, ruling government has lost elections. My fellow Zimbabweans are we concerned with justice and truth in politics? Or we want comfort, quick non-viable solutions, and short-term benefits at the expense truth, justice and Biblical democracy?

Unity government is the will of Thabo Mbeki president of South Africa not the will of God or Zimbabwean people. Our country must not ruled by Mbeki or that he determine who should be in power. This will be totally unacceptable.

Zimbabwe needs leaders who reflect the will of the people under their God. South Africa must push for the going out of Mugabe and his criminal Zanu pf government. This will be regarded as genuine concern and support to the oppressed people of Zimbabwe. Not to propose unity government.

Zimbabwe is a Christian nation. I don't think God will want MDC to unite with Zanu pf. Before long the MDC in its rallies and campaigns has told us that Zan pf is corrupt, illegitimate, and criminal. And the people have seen this to be true. Now why they should be Unity with criminals and illegitimate leaders? In the proposed unity with Zan pf are the people and God going to be served? Or we just want quick methods to be in power? Are we seeking the best for the people or are we self-seeking?

My fellow Zimbabweans lets not settle for less. Zanu pf leaders have lost elections and have destroyed our country therefore must go and face trial for their corruption and crimes. Why should we choose to go back to Egypt at this point in time? There is much hope for Zimbabwe if the government that won elections assumes its authority to rule. Then we will start campaigns so that criminals who murdered innocent people are convicted and victims are compensated.

I have respect for the MDC and the courage that President Morgan Tsvangirai has shown. MDC need steadfast support of the West and African nations. People think that the notion of Unity government is Mbeki's brainchild idea.

Remember those being murdered, starved and suffering in Zimbabwe. Support practical the struggle for freedom of Zimbabwe. Also see http://zimjustice.blogspot.com/2008/08/memorandum-of-understanding-mou.html
