*Chamisa’s Political Resurrection Becomes a Civil War of Fools* Nelson Chamisa’s much-hyped political “resurrection” is crumbling - not at the hands of ZANUPF, but from the bitter and bruised egos of his own political orphans. As he tiptoes toward launching yet another rebranded party - this time cloaked in youthful vigour and technocratic polish - the knives have come out, and they’re being wielded by those who once knelt at his feet. What was supposed to be a grand comeback has quickly devolved into a theatre of treachery. Chamisa’s desperate attempt to whitewash the past and recast himself as the Moses of opposition politics has triggered open revolt from the very people who marched, bled, and got arrested for his cause. Chief among them is Denford Ngadziore - once Chamisa’s mouthpiece, now the self-appointed opposition exorcist. Ngadziore, fueled by bruised pride and political irrelevance, is leading a petty and vindictive crusade to sabotage Chamisa’s new outfit before it even takes its first breath. Leaked information - some say planted - has already torpedoed grassroots training programmes across Harare, exposing the level of infiltration and dysfunction that plagues the so-called “democratic movement.” But Chamisa is no innocent bystander in this implosion. His arrogance and obsession with image over loyalty have alienated the very base that once carried him on their shoulders. In his quest to appear “clean,” he’s surrounded himself with politically sterile figures like Thabani Mpofu - brilliant in courtrooms, but utterly irrelevant in the trenches of real political struggle. The sidelining of opposition stalwarts in favour of boardroom revolutionaries is not reform - it’s a betrayal. The irony is bitter: the man who cries foul over rigged elections cannot even manage a clean slate in his own backyard. Chamisa’s biggest threat isn’t ZANUPF - it’s the burning wreckage of his past decisions and the ambition-crazed hyenas circling him. Ngadziore and his ilk, rather than building, would rather burn it all down if they’re not handed the keys. What we are witnessing is not a revolution. It’s a political suicide pact. The so-called champions of democracy are too busy stabbing each other in the back to mount any serious challenge to the state. Meanwhile, ZANUPF doesn’t even need to lift a finger - the opposition is disintegrating under the weight of its own egos and delusions. Unless Chamisa confronts this mutiny head-on and cleans house, his political project will become yet another footnote in Zimbabwe’s tragic book of failed opposition dreams. And when the dust settles, the nation will remember not who lost the election - but who destroyed themselves trying to lead it. https://x.com/dereckgoto/status/1924422093795418481
