Posted on | juni 13, 2011 | No Comments

Allow me to thank, commend and applaud the SADC leaders for doing the right thing at the just ended SADC Extraordinary Summit on Zimbabwe in which the SADC leaders have stood firm, strong and right on the legitimate demands, wishes and will of the ordinary and majority people of Zimbabwe by :

1: fully adopting, endorsing,ratifying and recommending the resolutions of the SADC Troika Summit on Politics, Defence and Security held in Livingstone, Zambia in March this year which called for Mr Mugabe and ZANU PF to put an immediate stop to the violence, human rights violations, harassment and intimidation that they have been imposing and inflicting upon civilians, as well as

2: the SADC leaders full and definitive endorsement for the swift and complete implementation of Constitutional, Electoral and Security Sector reforms which must be done before any elections can be held, and by so doing the SADC leaders have done the right thing, not just in the best interests of the people of Zimbabwe, but in the best and enlightened interest of SADC as a whole, the new Free Trade Area(FTA) as a whole after the bringing together and unity of purpose that we have seen from COMESA, EAC and SADC. And this SADC final resolution and recommendation is also in the best interest of the African Union as a whole and humanity and the world at large as a whole.

More so, this SADC final resolution and recommendation on Zimbabwe will go a long way in according the people of Zimbabwe a unique, decent and definitive opportunity to choose their next new leader and new Government for Zimbabwe through free and fair, peaceful and legitimate elections, and realistically that has to be a new General Election in 2012 or by 18 April 2013 when all the fundamental reforms and pre-conditions for free and fair, peaceful and legitimate elections are in place and when Elections Constitutionally and legally due in terms of Zimbabwe’s laws, values and principles, cultural mores and norms and guided by Sadc’s Mauritius Declarations governing the conduct of free and fair, peaceful and legitimate, democratic and definitive elections.

This is the extraordinary and historic right thing which Sadc has done today and which all of us, the people of Zimbabwe, especially those of us who love their country and its people and want to see it emerge out of the current wilderness, are compelled to abide by and agree with in our own best national and public interest.
