MDCs MATURITY IS COMMENDABLE!

(To Learnmore Judah Jongwe, a fallen hero of the struggle for democracy and good governance ... May his dearest soul rest in eternal peace!)

Through the GNU, the two MDC formations, the one led by Morgan Tsvangirai & the other one led by Prof. Welshman Ncube, have mastered the rudiments of governance, of administration and of building essential institutions.
They have been able to identify reliable leadership under severe and stressful conditions.
They have developed the mature skills of give and take negotiations for survival. They have mastered the intricate art of flexibility, of being firm when firmness is required and of compromise and reconcilliation when no strong held principles are at stake.
Tought and rough experiences have enabled them to dvp the ability to constantly distinguish and make a choice btwn primary and secondary contradictions and to act on them according to the required objective.
In other words they have developed that rare capacity to be able to stand the heat and make it even warmer.
The rare wealth of experience have been seen in the mould of the Prime Minister, Morgan Tsvangirai, the Minister of Finance, who became the prime focus of the media recently concerning the contentious issue of civil servants' salaries and the equally controversial issue of the ghost workers. With such a dark clould hovering over his head Biti has been unshaken. Minister Elton Mangoma have had his share of the tribulations, the same can be said about the minister on the Organ on National Healing Reconcilliation and Intergration, Moses Mzila Ndlovu whose stance on the Gukurahundi issue invited trouble for the Legislator. The MDC (N/M) saga emanating from the 'disputed' congress has not dettered Prof. W Ncube, i was going through the Sunday News dated August 28 - 4 Sept 2011 when i leant of the Prof's desire to have the Parly moved to Bulawayo if ever the gvt was committed to devolution of power. I also leant abt the Prof's fight against the de-industrialization of Bulawayo.
These are some of the most outstanding Ministers in Zimbabwe's inclusive Gvt, they are a unique feat. Your truly almost forgot the Hon. Speaker of Parly, Mr. Lovemore N. Moyo who almost lost the speakership bt won after fighting a battle of attention and intention against the Prodigal son, Prof. J Moyo.
Commander i salute you. What is left is for the MDCs to dvp a solid identity of purpose.
We need to see the MDCs who respect each other because each sees in the other similar qualities and traits which they themselves value the most. Such traits as honesty, courage, single-mindedness, organizational talent and administrative skills.
The reward is nigh!!! Aluta Continua!
