Opposition leader Nelson Chamisa delays top positions to expose “snakes” within party
In a bold strategic move, Nelson Chamisa, the leader of the Citizens’ Coalition for Change (CCC), has revealed that the party deliberately postponed allocating top positions in order to expose individuals with ulterior motives.
Chamisa, a prominent opposition figure in Zimbabwe, responded to a comment made by a user on Unity Day, who expressed concerns about the presence of “snakes” within the CCC.
Described as “strategic ambiguity,” Chamisa’s decision to delay appointing individuals to key positions was aimed at allowing power-hungry individuals to reveal their true intentions. In a statement, the former Minister of ICT expressed, “Regai dzibude pachena, tisvike takachena! Ndizvo muchiona takanonoka kuti tipanane zvigaro. Taida venyota yesimba nemakaro ezvigaro vabude pachena. Masiriri anonetsa kuchengetedza unoona pasi patota nehavi!!! Lol.”
The absence of clear structures within the party has been cited as a contributing factor to the rise of Sengezo Tshabangu, a CCC activist who claimed to be the interim secretary general and seized control of the party.
The delayed announcement of top leadership positions within the CCC has created a climate of uncertainty and speculation. As the party navigates through these internal challenges, the revelation by Chamisa sheds light on the party’s strategy to expose those seeking personal gain and consolidate a united front.
Observers and supporters alike are eager to see how the CCC will proceed in addressing the internal power dynamics and establishing effective structures. The upcoming decisions made by Chamisa and the party leadership will play a crucial role in determining the party’s future trajectory and its ability to provide a strong opposition voice in Zimbabwean politics.
