Several months ago two young Zimbabweans were disqualified from reality show Big Brother Africa. The two Zimbabweans fought and undermined each other, for no good reason. The fight was not a spur of the moment thing, but a petty conflict that escalated and escalated.
In fact, the show's authorities were too lenient with the two for too long. All I can remember about their participation in the show is them throwing fluids of one kind or another at each other. The other participants grew muscles holding these two apart.
Well, I am not surprised. They behaved like a typical bunch of Zimbabwean idiots - take a good thing, fight over it until it is destroyed. They call it shaisano.
Talking about fighting over a good thing, what about fighting over the country itself? Do I need to mention any names? I am sure everyone knows who fought over our beautiful country until it was destroyed.
The eviction of two Zimbabweans from Big Brother Africa Stargame perhaps illustrates what is wrong with Zimbabwean attitudes. They fight each other to total destruction over petty issues.
We Zimbabweans exhibit levels of selfishness that are unbelievable. We take individualism far much more than a couple of miles too far. We seem to take delight in stomping each other until we all have no toes.
Elections are due within a year and it is clear that beds of thorns are being prepared for opponents. The 'if I can't have it, you can't have it too' rhetoric is already starting to goo over the political atmosphere.
At the end of the day it is the ordinary people who suffer the most. They are in for another round of bashing as politicians try to humiliate each other.
