He said:<\/p>\n<p>A crazy season is upon us. Expect a lot of drama and shifts in the next months. Be vigilant. Watch out.<\/p>\n<p>They will and are compromising some even pouring in serious money into various pockets. Some will fall for it and fall by the wayside. Be careful! Act smart! Win Big!<\/p>\n<p>CCC spokesperson Gift Siziba told <b>NewsDay<\/b> that they were aware of ZANU PF\u2019s plans to infiltrate and destabilise CCC. He said:<\/p>\n<p>We are aware of what our opponents are plotting.<\/p>\n<p>The regime in Harare wants to have an opposition that they can lead themselves so they are using the Lenin strategy.<\/p>\n<p>They are escalating such machinations, but they have not worked and will never work.<\/p>\n<p>The opposition has emerged stronger, fit with more vigour and vitality and ready to govern.<\/p>\n<p>In the past, ZANU PF has, during its political rallies, paraded opposition members who crossed the floor.<\/p>\n<p>Some opposition officials who defected to ZANU PF and have been given government positions include James Maridadi and Obert Gutu.<\/p>\n<p>University of Zimbabwe political science lecturer Eldred Masunugure said Chamisa\u2019s fear of infiltration is justified as ZANU PF has used money to infiltrate the opposition for decades. He said:<\/p>\n<p>The one who can provide the biggest pie is likely to win the support of an individual.<\/p>\n<p>That is the politics of patronage and has become very common in Zimbabwe.<\/p>\n<p>ZANU PF has financial resources, unlike Chamisa\u2019s opposition party which has no funding.<\/p>\n<p>Chamisa\u2019s fear is real and this explains why he has not come up with structures, a party constitution, or refused to go for an elective congress which could be easy entries for ZANU PF on infiltrating.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zimbabwe\">Zimbabwe<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zimbabwe.
