Tsvangirai meets his handlers

Zimbabwe government controlled media reports that the MDC-T top leadership led by Mr. Morgan Tsvangirai sneaked out of the country to hold private meetings with British PM David Cameron's advance team in South Africa.

The MDC-T leader and his team sneaked out of the country last Thursday without government sanctioning the trip as is the norm with all government officials.

ZBC alleges that in a mission to seek relevance and appease their western masters, the MDC-T leadership, including Mr. Tsvangirai sneaked out the country in three batches to South Africa last Thursday where they allegedly met with the British PM Mr. Cameron's advance team and President Zuma's facilitation team of Lindiwe Zulu.

As a way of disguising their sinister mission, the MDC-T top leadership left the country in three batches on the same day aboard South African Airways and a private airline at the following times: one o'clock, three o'clock and the last group boarded the seven o'clock evening plane.

ZBC News alleges that sources close to the meeting told them that the western-handled party's leadership briefed Mr. Cameroon's team on the political situation in Zimbabwe and also wanted assistance in finding a strategy of convincing or at least confusing President Zuma in handling the Zimbabwean question at the SADC summit in Angola next month.

The team is said to have allegedly complained bitterly on why Zanu-PF wants the elections held this year as decided by its Politburo.

The meeting is reported to have mooted ideas of employing the violent North African style of toppling democratically elected governments with the full backing of the west.

Eyebrows have been raised by the coincidence of meetings between MDC-T leadership and UK Prime Minister's advance team and talks between President Zuma and Prime Minister Cameron ahead of the SADC summit in Angola next month, with analysts saying this may throw the summit into disarray.

International relations experts described the situation of President Zuma as SADC facilitator to the GPA and reporting to himself by virtue of being Chairman of the SADC Troika on Politics, Defence and Security as tricky and explosive, adding that it will go against the principles of natural justice if the issue is not attended to urgently.
