Chamisa clearly shows that he can't handle this business. Using pen and paper won't free -up Job. 1. Chamisa is banned to visit Job @Chikurubi, 2.Mnangagwa refused to respond your request, now you are telling the public, do you think your Ccc supporters are going to stand up and help you to fight for Job's release. 3.As for you Chamisa keep on entertaining your supporters on tweeter. Ccc supporters stop being cowards are you scared of Zanu Pf, most of you are good in commenting but your comments are not good enough to free-up you all from the reign of Zanu Pf. CCC youth supporters if you volunteer to be soldiers of CCC that's is when the reign of Zanu Pf will notice your presence and begin to rebuild Zimbabwe by opening all closed industries, building more hospitals, construct roads, bridges, offer free education, built more schools and other business sectors. Zanu Pf is alive but it only needs someone who is very serious, Stubbon,almost cruel as Adolf Hitler himself to take over the operation. If there are opposition leaders who are serious of taking the throan away from Zanu Pf must escape Zimbabwe and be able to broadcast his or her statement on international Tv Channels for the recruiting of his or her Soldiers in progression of fighting for the Independence of Sourthern Rhodesia for the second time this time the millitary will be brought up to remove Zanu Pf from the throan the statement must be broadcasted on television such as Aljezeera, France 24, Bcc any leader who will make take this advise surely will be brave enough to take down Zanu Pf once and for all. I trully believe that ibotso song by Winky D tells a lot.
If Gaffa is intending to form his political party he should adapt to this fighting formation in order to take the throan from the reign of Zanu Pf.
The well known popular slogan of Zanu Pf goes like this "Sons and daughters of Zanu Pf A.K.A Zimbabwe fought the whites, for the country which many call it Zimbabwe as for me i call it Zanu Pf so in other words Zanu Pf is Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe is Zanu Pf.
