IS it not ironic that the same police force which has been in the news claiming it is not going to offer protection during the Constitution outreach exercise unless it is paid a staggering ransom has found resources and manpower to disrupt the annual Anglican pilgrimage.
Mohadi aptly put it when he said he saw no reason why the Gandiya faction should be barred because the Kunonga faction had done their own pilgrimage without incident.
The spanner becomes superintendent Oliver Mandipaka then because the press quoted him going against his superior’s comments? Or do we see the politics of Zanu PF’s often mentioned factionalism rearing it’s ugly head but in the wrong field?
Whatever the causes of this shameful act by our revolutionary police, is it not time someone in Zanu PF brought sanity as it does not bode well for Zanu PF supporters in the Anglican Church? Do we hate everything British that we mistake Bibles in the hands of the Anglican worshippers to be ZIDERA documents and guns? If we hate the British this much how come we still love the Lancaster House Constitution that was left by Smith, whose ancestors were British?
Members of the Apostolic Faith groups often fight and no one gives a hoot. What makes the Anglican wrangle to warrant the intervention of the securocrats?
Is it the fact that the Anglicans are so organised that they have investments in the money market and property worth fighting for unlike the Madzibabas?
