	Welcome to the Financial Gazette Online!
		THE ZANU PF government, under immense pressure to level the electoral playing field as Zimbabwe’s crucial parliamentary polls draw closer, is partially opening the airwaves to opposition political parties.
		During the same week, an official from ZANU Ndonga, the tribal-based opposition political party with a single seat in the 120-member Parliament, was also interviewed on the popular vernacular radio station Radio Zimbabwe.
		Remius Makuwaza, the MDC director of elections, was widely quoted in the state-controlled Herald of last Thursday, while another ZANU Ndonga official was also quoted, confirming his party’s participation.

		ZANU won the 1980 elections under the leadership of Robert Mugabe, and eight years later merged again with Joshua Nkomo's ZAPU to form ZANU-PF, the current governing party of the country.
		Both ZANU and ZAPU formed political wings within the country (under those names) and military wings: the Zimbabwe African National Liberation Army (ZANLA) and the Zimbabwe People's Revolutionary Army (ZIPRA) respectively to fight the struggle from neighbouring countries - ZANLA from Mozambique after the Portuguese withdrew, and ZIPRA from Zambia and other countries.
		Later that year, there was a factional split along tribal lines caused the Ndebele to follow Sithole into the moderate ZANU (Ndonga) party, who renounced violent struggle, while the Shona followed Mugabe with a more militant agenda.

		The problem for ZANU (PF) is compounded in Matabeleland in that his only possible Ndebele Vice President running mates, Msika or John Nkomo, did not even dare to contest seats in Matabeleland in the 2000 elections cognisant of their inability to win.
		ZANU (PF) has been desperately trying to promote candidates from these parties and it has been intriguing to see how, for example, the government controlled Chronicle newspaper in Bulawayo has been promoting the fortunes of Paul Siwela, the Secretary General of ZAPU who appears to have desires to contest the Presidential election.
		In stark contrast to the tone of the ZANU (PF) meeting prayer and a recommitment to the principle of non-violence marked the MDC Conference.

	The Head Heeb: Fear of a third party, revisited
		It is now three weeks since an alliance was formed uniting the ZANU dissidents with other independent candidates, but the jury's still out on whether it counts as a party - and on whether it will prove to be ZANU's nightmare or the MDC's.
		ZANU is vulnerable in Beitbridge, Chiredzi North and possibly Chiredzi South, which it won with relatively small majorities in the last election, but there are at least three seats where independents might beat the MDC or draw enough of its vote to put ZANU over the top.
		To achieve such a majority, ZANU has to pick up three seats, and its reverses and internal battles have it running scared enough to pull out all the stops both in the legal arena and on the ground.

		ZANU (PF) had dominated the parliament until the June 2000 elections; PF-ZAPU came second best up to its demise when it joined ZANU (PF) in 1987.
		While a case could be made for posing a similar argument where ZANU (PF) narrowly lost, we have however reasoned that such an argument is untenable since ZANU (PF) originally held all these constituencies.
		However, this is not to say "soft constituencies" towards ZANU (PF) could not develop from those won by the MDC, particularly if the MDC begins to fail the people, or if the new "miracle" cabinet starts performing miracles.

		This was illustrated by the fact that out of 15 stories the two papers carried, eight simplistically celebrated the outcome, three were unquestioning reports on the observer missions’ endorsement of the election, two on the police warning against political violence and two on President Mugabe’s comments on plans to amend the constitution.
		One report was on the MDC’s response to President Mugabe’s statements that he was willing to work with the opposition, one on Zanu (Ndonga)’s comments on its defeat in Chipinge South, one on the total number of people who voted and one on Mugabe’s comments on the succession issue.
		For example, it quoted Zanu (Ndonga) leader Wilson Kumbula attributing his party’s defeat in Chipinge South, a seat it has held for the past 25 years, to intimidation of its supporters by ZANU PF activists, who allegedly threatened to starve the constituency’s population if they did not vote for the ruling party.

		Then again, for the ZANU apparatchiks whose well-being depends on control over the state, a mauling at the polls and the consequent escalation of domestic protests and international pressure could be the cue to retire the 75-year-old strongman.

		In yet another twist to Information Minister Jonathan Moyo’s political script, lightweight opposition party Zanu, formerly known as Ndonga, is claiming that the spin-doctor cut his political teeth with their party in the 1970s and they were now working towards wooing him back.
		In his CV submitted to the Zanu PF Elections Directorate that was to consider his suitability for standing on the party’s ticket in Tsholotsho, Moyo made a slight reference to his connections with the founder of Zanu Ndonga.
		Moyo, who was reportedly conscripted into the guerrilla movement as the liberation war of the 1970s gathered momentum, left for Zambia in 1973 and later emerged at Mgagao training camp in Tanzania in 1976 before leaving for the University of California in 1978.
