MDC-Alliance has been captured by the G40 cabal, amid
indications that the cabal kingpins funded the opposition outfit and did
consultancy work ahead of the 2018 harmonised elections.
Former editor of The Sunday Mail Edmund Kudzayi, an
MDC-Alliance sympathiser basing on his social media posts, alleged that the
self-exiled former Higher and Tertiary Education Minister, Professor Jonathan
Moyo, mobilised funds for the opposition party.
Mr Kudzayi on Twitter said: “Where did the money come from?
It was raised by Jonathan Moyo. One unknown fact is that Jonathan Moyo did not
want to publicly support the MDC in 2018, preferring to watch from the
terraces.
“It took me four months, January to April 2018, to persuade
him to help actively, after which #KwekweHim, #KutongwaKwaro (and) #Excelgate
were born.”
In response, Prof Moyo said: “It’s an open secret that my
TL in these streets actively supported @nelsonchamisa’s candidature in 2018. No
regrets or apologies. On the media campaign you cite, I got other comrades to
also give their support. For example, @PatrickZhuwao paid USD6k for radio ads
on @ZiFMStereo!”
The expose vindicated former MDC vice president Mr Obert
Gutu, who overtly disclosed that the MDC-A had been captured by the vanquished
G40 faction.
“Some people thought that I was lying,” said Mr Gutu
speaking to The Herald yesterday.
“Now the chickens have come home to roost and it has been
authenticated by a known G40 sympathiser (Mr Kudzayi) that the MDC Alliance
presidential candidate was bankrolled by die-hard G40 architects during his
2018 presidential campaign. To some of us, this was always a public secret.”
Impeccable sources say Prof Moyo is now Mr Chamisa’s
advisor, a move which has caused divisions in the party.
Many meetings were held between senior MDC-A members and
G40 elements in Johannesburg, Cape Town and Nairobi.
Mr Gutu said during the meetings, large sums of money
exchanged hands, with the bulk being donated by G40 architects not reaching the
MDC-A’s conventional campaign fund account.
“This is the main reason why key G40 operatives such as
Shadreck Mashayamombe, Jeppy Jaboon, Kudakwashe Bhasikiti, Dzikamai Mavhaire
and many others, now occupy very senior positions in the MDC-Alliance.”
Political analyst Mr Godwills Masimirembwa criticised Prof
Moyo. “Today he is with this political philosophy and ideological outlook, and
tomorrow he changes,” he said. Herald
