In a recent social media post, Linda Masarira, the president of Labour, Economists and African Democrats (LEAD), launched a scathing attack on opposition leader Nelson Chamisa.
Masarira accused Chamisa of being manipulative and deceptive, sparking a storm of controversy.
The criticism came in response to Chamisa's post on his official X account, where he emphasized his party's history of overcoming challenges and building a strong foundation. Chamisa expressed confidence in his party's ability to overcome current obstacles. However, Masarira dismissed Chamisa's claims, stating that he is merely a charismatic figure who has taken advantage of people's desperation for change.
Masarira went on to accuse Chamisa of causing the downfall of his own parties, the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) and the recently formed CCC. She claimed that his tactics, which she referred to as "cobra tactics," have caused significant harm to the opposition party. Masarira called on Chamisa to self-introspect and warned him against believing his own lies.

Unsurprisingly, Chamisa's followers were quick to defend their leader and criticize Masarira in return. The exchange between Masarira and Chamisa's supporters further escalated tensions within the opposition ranks.
This public feud highlights the divisions and power struggles that exist within Zimbabwean politics. It also raises questions about the effectiveness of the opposition in challenging the ruling party and providing a viable alternative for voters.
Before you block me for saying the obvious truths you do not want many to know, you are far away from being a builder, my brother. You are just a charismatic being who has taken advantage of charisma and people's desperation for change.

The public will be watching closely to see how both Chamisa and Masarira respond to this controversy. Their actions and statements in the coming days will undoubtedly shape public perception and have implications for the future of opposition politics in Zimbabwe.
