Political analysts who spoke to Daily News said that People’s Rainbow Coalition (PRC) leader Joice Mujuru has now reduced herself to a regional leader following her manifesto launch in her hometown.
Political analyst, Eldred Masunungure, said Mujuru should have launched her manifesto outside of her home area to prove that she is a national leader. Said Masunungure:
She (Mujuru) wanted to launch it in her home area among her people where she is the daughter of the soil. After what happened to (splinter MDC leader Thokozani) Khupe programme last week where people didn’t show up, Mujuru had to be creative, but that is not as things ought to be. If you are a national leader who must not be regional and she should have launched it in other rural settings to prove that she is really a national leader, she must feel comfortable in any location in Zimbabwe.
Political analyst, Maxwell Saungweme listed reasons why Mujuru lost popularity chief among them being the lack of ideology and her tainted past as a Zanu-PF politician.
