Pindula News publishes Chuma\u2019s Twitter thread below:<\/p>\n<p>POLAD, a grouping of Mnangagwa\u2019s political lapdogs have this week shocked all and sundry by laying out some funny electoral reforms proposals.<\/p>\n<p>Surprisingly among their facade list of reforms, the gang is silent about the abuse of taxpayers money by election rejects.<\/p>\n<p>POLAD members have criminally benefited from taxpayers\u2019 money yet they do not possess an ounce of a social contract with the masses. Rejects and losers must never determine the course and direction our country must take.<\/p>\n<p>They lack moral probity and public endorsement hence they should not force their rotten political ideas to the very people who rejected the same ideas on the ballot.<\/p>\n<p>By embracing Emmerson Mnangagwa, POLAD members have embraced criminality, human butchery, corruption, human rights abuses and all the ills of the so-called Second Recond Republic. It\u2019s folly to accept a witch and condemn witchcraft.<\/p>\n<p>If POLAD members are genuine about reforms, then their first port of call must be to genuinely call for the release of all political prisoners like Makomborero Haruzivishe.<\/p>\n<p>If POLAD members are sincere on reforms then they must return Mnangagwa\u2019s vehicles which they were corruptly given.<\/p>\n<p>POLAD members are accomplices to this unjust system that has left our people economically, socially &amp; politically disenfranchised.<\/p>\n<p>We can\u2019t allow accomplices of thievery &amp; corruption to suggest what\u2019s good for our society for they religiously serve the interests of their masters.<\/p>\n<p>If POLAD members are sincere about reforms then their first port of call must be to call for the resignation of chief electoral thief Mnangagwa who ordered the butchering of defenceless civilians by the military in 2018.
