Aylesbury LIFE because Learning Is For Everyone

I just turned on the television and saw the news from Zimbabwe and then it wasn't long before I found the Full Statement from Morgan Tsvangirai on the decision to withdraw from the Presidential run-off.

I remember Morgan Tsvangirai never did lose the initial elections. His party won control of parliament and it took the state a full five weeks to stuff the presidential ballot boxes after true results were posted on the outside of every polling station at the end of polling day. And now the Zimbabwe State of Fear has rendered the run-off election illegitimate. There is no democracy in Zimbabwe nor will their be true democracy while the military junta remain.

I am cross and I am sad but I know my loss is as nothing compared with that of millions of Zimbaweans around the world and especially in Zimbabwe at this time.

May the Father of orphans, the Husband of widows and the Provider for refugees bring Sanctuary to all His people — soon and very soon.

May the Prince of Peace restore honour to the people of peaceful struggle — soon and very soon.

May Zimbabwe’s neighbours, people and countries around the world, spare no effort on her behalf — soon and very soon.

May Zimbabwe once again and with true justice, righteousness and integrity be the breadbasket of Africa — soon and very soon.
