Tendai's frustrations

I do understand with the MDC’s decision to join the new government. But to argue that nine years of MDC’s struggle came to naught is too simplistic and does not take into consideration the concessions made by Mugabe. A reading of Mugabe’s speeches clearly points to the fact that he was not prepared to move an inch. Remember he does not trust MDC and MDC people should not trust Mugabe. A journey begins with a small step Tendai, and we hope that this step leads us to a new Zimbabwe. We do not expect to reach there today, but someday, by the will of God, surely we will be there. What we are witnessing now is a paradigm shift in political matters together with a gradual transfer of power- from those who have plundered this country to those, whom the electorate, believe are fresh and have new ideas in our, efforts (Zimbabweans and the international commuhnity)to undo the damages of the ‘lost decade’.
