Robert Mugabe still has all the power in Zimbabwe, and Tsvangirai can not do anything about it. It’s clear there is no unity in the Zimbabwe Unity Government and Morgan Tsvangirai has been lying to Zimbabweans and the whole World that Robert Mugabe has changed.

Zimbabwe Prime Minister and MDC leader, Morgan Tsvangirai has told reporters that members of the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) are still being harassed by the police despite guarantees of political freedom when he formed the Inclusive Government with Robert Mugabe. Tsvangirai also said disputes with Robert Mugabe over the central bank governor and other posts were undermining the unity government.

“The outstanding issue of the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe governor and the attorney general, which ought to have been resolved a long time ago, are impacting negatively on the credibility and legitimacy of the inclusive government,” Tsvangirai told reporters.

“The Southern African Development Community accepted that these were genuine issues and that the appointments should not have been,” he said.

On the issue of persecution and harassment of MDC members by the police, Morgan Tsvangirai said: “To make matters worse, the selective application of the rule of law, including the persecution and prosecution of MDC members of parliament, continues to inflame political tensions,” Tsvangirai said.

“Equally problematic is the deliberately slow pace of progress on the implementation of key issues connected to human rights and the rule of law.”

Morgan Tsvangirai also accused Robert Mugabe’s supporters of using state media to advocate only for the interest of Zanu Pf.

“This distortion of the political reality by the state media presents a real and credible threat to the inclusive government and its ability to impact positively on the lives of all Zimbabweans,” he said

From the issues that Tsvangirai talked about, there is no doubt Mugabe still has all the power in Zimbabwe. He has so far refused to cooperate in the Inclusive Government to resolve those outstanding issues, including the issue of Gideon Gono who many Zimbabweans blame for the financial mess the country is in today. The continuous arrests of MDC MPs…..there is also the Roy Bennet issue. So, what is Morgan Tsvangirai doing in this so called Unity Government???

All these past months Tsvangirai has tried to convince Zimbabweans and the whole world that Robert Mugabe has changed, that he is working well together with Mugabe and he can now be trusted. He said they are now Buddies with Mugabe…..lol!!! So what is all this he is talking about now??? Why did Tsvangirai lie to the Zimbabwean exiles in London that all is well back home, when he new very well that Mugabe has not changed and is not going to change??
