If it happens, and I think it is possible, this is going to determine Zimbabwe's political future in the next year or so. |
It has no other intention except to keep this government in power. |
It is an insult to all of us that he should try to deny that he was part of the system. |
It would be foolhardy for either faction to believe it can overshadow the other and if they do not try to re-unite before the next elections they will certainly lose against Mugabe. |

We cannot continue talking about a way forward when we know the way forward is to change the constitution. |
