Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 48693, member: 636"] Former party leader Blessed Geza slammed his old colleagues for letting wealthy businessman Kudakwashe Tagwirei buy his way into power. The kicked-out politician broke his silence to attack ruling party members who helped the tycoon climb the political ladder. Geza asked what makes Tagwirei special enough to jump straight into the top decision-making group. He accused party supporters of cheering for corruption right out in the open. The angry former official wondered how someone could go from nobody to presidential candidate overnight. Tagwirei has been traveling across Zimbabwe speaking to party crowds after joining the powerful Central Committee. Many people think the businessman wants to become president when current leader Emmerson Mnangagwa steps down. The wealthy tycoon denies having leadership dreams and claims Mnangagwa will stay in charge until 2030. Geza has attacked Tagwirei before over corruption claims involving other businessmen like Wicknell Chivayo. The former party member thinks his old organization has lost its way completely. The ousted politician criticized party leaders for dumping their old liberation war friends. He pointed out that Vice-President Constantino Chiwenga fought for independence alongside other veterans. Geza believes Mnangagwa chose to surround himself with shady characters instead of trusted comrades from the struggle. The former committee member thinks party bosses have forgotten the sacrifices people made for freedom. He suggested that blood was spilled to win independence from colonial rule. [/QUOTE]
