Boycotting the FLAIR, Boycotting Auxillia
It looks like numbers are not adding up for Auxillia and Zanu PF at the FLAIR summit where they hoped to clean up some of their soiled linen. Potential audiences are boycotting. They do not wish to be associated with Zanu PF shenanigans. And when numbers are not adding up, Zanu PF does what Zanu PF is good at – they fudge the numbers.
They bring the cheque book too. No, they bring wads of cash – dirty cash, all stolen from the poor citizens.
Zanu PF is known for number crunching, especially if the numbers are not what they want the numbers to look like. It is what they have always done since 18 April 1980. Actually since 8 August, 1963 when the ‘creature’ was born. The numbers that you see in election after election are fudged numbers, what you get in creative accounting. Creative elections, creative outcomes.
As the FLAIR dates draw close, signs are that it will be boycotted by everyone with eyes to see how Auxillia wished to bleach the Zanu image at this summit. Even if she brings plane loads of cheerleaders from Uzumba Maramba Pfungwe, as they have always done at UNGA in New York when hubby addresses his only entourage and empty chairs year after year. It is not helping that Dawn Butler (MP) has boycotted the summit too, as she did not give permissions to be one of the speakers! She too, like all the other would be participants might have seen through the Zanu PF’s cheap public relations stunt. They refuse to endorse the Harare shenanigans.
It will be a sad day if the whole summit is to be brought down by a murderous regime with a different agenda than the rest of the participants and organisers. And it will be sadder if they give in by giving away the tickets to the summit at half the price or for free. Zanu is ready to doll out large sums of money to buy the 3200 seats and allocate them to whosoever is willing to endure Auxillia’s predictable but boring speech and get paid for it. Their options are few. Either they fork out the cash and trade people’s consciences for money, or she addresses empty seats.
One wonders whether the wads of cash in Sterling are going to work on our conscience and make us forget the sadistic and treacherous regime. Will money be enough to make the Zimbabweans in UK to get away from their otherwise busy schedules to listen to a choreographed speech authored at Shake - Shake building, the Zanu PF headquarters?
After all money is the least of your problems if your husband is the owner of a whole rich country called Zimbabwe, and if your children are the ‘rightful heirs’ to the loot.
