Don’t be the donkey: Vigil

Vigil members were glad to hear Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai insist that reforms laid out in the GPA must be implemented before the elections. But we want him to go further and spell out that, if the reforms are not made, he will not take part in the elections and be the donkey in a new Government of National Unity.

Tsvangirai says he is to tour the region to seek support. The message the Vigil gets is that support is there – particularly from South Africa – but what is needed is the determination and courage he showed 10 years ago. He must know that the region cannot allow another rigged election.

The Vigil believes that if SADC can help to level the electoral playing field and control Zanu (PF) intimidation there is little doubt that informed voters would not support a party that has destroyed the economy and shows no sign of changing its ways.
