EDITOR — Morgan Tsvangirai’s visit to flood victims at Tokwe-Mukorsi basin comes too late.
How can an aspiring national leader acknowledge the existence of this national calamity three months down the line?
The Tokwe-Mukorsi floods which affected over 2 000 families and several livestock were covered
extensively by both local and international media so one cannot say Tsvangirai was not aware of the predicament facing the flood victims in Chivi.
President Robert Mugabe declared a state of national disaster in the Tokwe-Mukosi reservoir catchment basin as floods continued to wreck havoc in Chivi. Anyone who witnessed the victims in Chivi playing cat and mouse games with crocodiles certainly agrees the disaster warrants national sympathy.
Honestly, how can Tsvangirai, all of a sudden decide to visit the area when all pillars of assistance are pitched to normalise the affected families?
He is poised on nothing, but gaining cheap political mileage out of the sufferers’ plight.
He is seeking to get visibility as he is scouting to be covered by the press while touring this place.
It is quite clear that when the Head of State, president Mugabe declared it a national disaster, he did not see the actual gravity of this matter till this week.
The government was surely seized by this natural catastrophe, and acted speedily to save human and animal lives.
Tsvangirai’s failure to react quickly to such issues may relay the wrong message to the affected families?
This behavioural trait militates against his efficiency and effectiveness in dealing with matters. This may explain why he is fire-fighting in our party and failing to maintain cohesion amongst his supporters.
MDC is the people’s party as we know it, but when the people are in the middle of calamities, such as this Tokwe-Mukorsi disaster, we forget about them. Surely, this soils our image in the public spectrum.
Wake up and smell the coffee Tsvangirai.
