Africa-Press – Lesotho. Uncle Sam and his leadership should not be surprised that the opposition is now grabbing them by the collar. They played into the government’s hands by making hasty and emotional decisions.
The suspension of the three MPs has now triggered a backlash that might topple the government. The opposition is smelling blood and getting ready to pounce.
Even if Uncle Sam’s government survives the next storm, the opposition will keep coming. They are possessed by the spirit of destruction. The next few years will be tsunami after tsunami.
Nothing motivates a politician more than the prospect of finishing off a wounded opponent. Muckraker is tempted to say the RFP still has a chance to regroup and fight from one corner but that would be false.
The trust has been broken and the wounds are too deep. Those who have been suspended want revenge. Mediation is a waste of time. Nothing is ever forgiven and forgotten in politics.
Muckraker’s humble advice to Uncle Sam and his people is that they should stock up on painkillers because there are more pounding headaches on the way.
Keep some pills at home, office, office toilet, back pocket, handbag, wallet and even bra. Mapesela will not rest until he is back in government and proudly messing up things.
He is beating war drums. Uncle Sam and his people had better learn to play dirty because this is a rough game. Bones will be broken and bodies bruised.
