Even if you have not been paying attention to Zimbabwe lately, you were still bedazzled by the ongoing political drama. President Mugabe is confirming every low expectation the people of Zimbabwe have of him. In the end you were probably left wondering what the people of Zimbabwe should really do next;

The deadline given by the regional community in Maputo passed on Friday without a single decision regarding the issues that are still outstanding being met.  The political agreements were signed by the three Parties to the Zimbabwe crisis in September 2007. The reason was quite clear – Zanu and the Mutambara group simply do not know what to do. If they agree to do what the region wants, they are dead in the water.

Once again we have a government in Zimbabwe after the announcement to revert to the government of national unity (GNU) by MDC-T president Morgan Tsvangirai. Just as Mr. Mugabe had predicted the MDC-T is back after getting some assurance from president Zuma of South Africa that SADC will attempt to resolve the outstanding GNU issues within 30 days.
