"TENDAI BITI IS THE BEST CHOICE!" MUTUMWA MAWERE



SOUTH AFRICA - RIVONIA — On 21 February 2009, an article authored by Gareth Moyo under the title: “Biti is not the best choice” published by ZimDaily.com allegedly based on comments made by Professor Jonathan Moyo (MP) to journalists in Harare raises some fundamental and foundational issues that are critical in informing the nation building process.

I should like to believe that Professor Moyo may not be the only one who has questioned the wisdom of appointing Hon. Biti as the Minister of Finance at this defining moment in Zimbabwe’s post-colonial history.

If Biti is the only one who is not the best choice then who is and by whose standards?

Who should be a Minister? What criteria should be used for assigning Ministerial duties?

After 29 years of control of the state by one political party led by one leader, it must be accepted that it becomes difficult to look at governance in isolation of President Mugabe’s known and predictable approach.

He has rightly or wrongly set the standards and it is, therefore, not unusual for people to expect new players to follow suit.

Independence brought with it sovereignty to the people of Zimbabwe. Civil rights were restored to all and a republican constitution was adopted conferring universal rights to all.

One of the arguments used in denying the majority of the population the right to vote during the colonial era was that the outcome would be unpredictable as people with no interests in a civilised society could not be trusted to make rational choices.

A responsible government under the colonial system could only emerge, therefore, if the right to vote was reserved for civilised people.

In all phases of colonial development in Zimbabwe a striking feature was the link between education and wealth to governance.

It was argued that educated and propertied blacks could be assimilated in the colonial system but the values informing the construction of the state could never be the values of the black majority who were perceived to be uncivilised.

It was argued that a colonial state could serve no purpose to a people who had no history of institution building. The colonial system was an interest based construction in which the colonialist never saw themselves as subservient to the English government.

Rhodesia emerged as a company owned by Cecil Rhodes stemming from a charter granted by the Crown. Under the charter, sovereignty over Rhodesia was transferred to a stock company with full governmental authority being vested in the company itself.

Although under the colonial system it was clear who the state was expected to serve, under the post-colonial system it has been a challenge to construct a new social contract that can produce outcomes that promote and protect a state that was never meant to be of value to non-income and propertied class of citizens.

Appreciating that the majority of the people in Zimbabwe are poor, rural and illiterate, the connection between the state and the majority of the people has been at best remote and academic.

The post-colonial constitutional democratic order vested sovereignty in the people, a majority of whom had no defined interest in the state resulting in state actors assuming the same role as colonial actors.

Under this system, citizens were responsible for electing parliamentary representatives as well as the President (since 1987). The President would then choose his cabinet from among the elected parliamentary representatives as well being able to nominate a designated number from outside the elected representatives.


To the extent that the selection of the President has less to do with his/her intellectual competence and capacity, it means that citizens who have the right to choose have nothing to base their choices on other than references to historical revolutionary struggles or promises.

It must be observed that citizens who are financially illiterate are inherently incapable of supervising their own representatives in the state.

Democracy with no accountability is nothing more than tyranny. The appointment of Biti cannot, therefore, be shocking as there is no constitutional impediment to disqualify him. In fact, there is no requirement that a Minister be an expert in the field that he is expected to preside over.

Ministers are after all political players who are selected by citizens using the same yardstick as that used in electing a President. No country has found a mechanism for selecting politicians and subsequently appointing them on merit.

The construction of a cabinet need not, therefore, be based on the criteria suggested by Professor Moyo. It is also important to appreciate the role of Ministers in the state. Should Ministers be technocrats?

I do not believe that it is necessary for Ministers to be experts rather it should be the responsibility of citizens to ensure that they participate in the governance process by using the different branches of the state to ensure that there are checks and balances.

What has been lacking during the last 29 years is the vigilance of citizens in holding their government accountable.

Given the role and place of President Mugabe in the history of Zimbabwe and his personality, it has not been possible for citizens to exercise any control over the state resulting in Ministers being only accountable to the President. Even parliament’s oversight role has not been of relevance in the post-colonial state.

Given Prof Moyo’s close relationship with Governor Gono, his alleged criticism of Hon Biti’s appointment is understandable. Why would MDC be expected to behave differently from ZANU-PF? If President Mugabe has the prerogative to appoint his Ministers; then it not clear why Prime Minister Tsvangirai; should not have the same right.

Any change in political behaviour has to be a consequence of citizen action. If Zimbabweans want the system to change then it behoves on them to change their attitude towards the state and the obligations to be the change they want to see.

No politicians will have an incentive to change behaviour unless he/she knows there are consequences.

When Prof Moyo was in government, he was accountable to no one. Zimbabwe’s prospects will only be lifted up by the actions of citizens who out of self interest want their circumstances to change and less by the actions of state actors operating in a vacuum.

The state can only be viable if funded by income generated from the activities of citizens rather than from donations or external support.

What are important factors are not the skills or experience of Hon Biti but the courage of Zimbabweans to reclaim their future. It would have been more beneficial for Prof Moyo to suggest what he proposes as the options open to Zimbabwe rather than focusing on the qualifications of Biti.

The inclusive government will have to rely on the inputs of organised citizens rather than on the perspectives of well established cynics. Prof Moyo has made the point that ZANU-PF nominees to cabinet are deadwood as described by President Mugabe.

What is different now is that there is a framework that has not existed before where executive power is shared and Ministers now have to report to a power structure that is not monolithic.

This framework provides a unique window for citizens to channel their complaints to a broader constituency and also allows for the deadwood to be exposed much more easily than before where Ministers’ obligations were only to please President Mugabe.

The country needs the help of all to move forward. It is not necessary that the contribution be restricted to only serve the state. Citizens should use the new framework to build a new system of governance that relies less on the intellect of the state actors but on the interests of the people that the state is expected to serve.

MINISTER OF FINANCE
LISTEN FOLKS TSVANGIRAI NEEDED AN MDC PERSON TO RUN FINANCE. ALL THE PEOPLE WHO JONATHAN MOYO THINKS ARE PRON TO ABUSE BY ZANU PF. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS NEUTRAL. IF NEUTRAL AND MUGABE IS STILL IN CHARGE OF CIO, THE NEUTRAL MINISTER OF FINANCE WOULD BE BULLIED TO ZANU PF ALLERGIANCE IN PRIVATE AND APPEAR NEUTRAL IN PUBLIC. SO A STRONG UNWAVERING BITI WAS THE RIGHT CHOICE WHO CAN NOT BE BULLIED OR MYSTIFIED BY ZANU PF MIGHT FOR FOREIGN CURRENCY OR STATE MONEY FOR PERSONAL OR PARTY GAINS. WELL DONE TSVANGIRAI

Professor of WHAT?
The problem is once someone becomes a professor they think they are above the rest and are better qualified to rule us villagers. Myself as a villager i cannot recall one positive this professor ever did for us. Freedom of expression were erroded below pre-independence era by the so called highly qualified professor who was incharge of the Ministry of Information. Independent media including Joy TV vanished because the PROFESSOR knew what was best for us as villagers because we had never attended university. Let start a debate to find out whether this PROFESSOR was best qualified to run any ministry. My understanding is professors are trained to lecture students not to run ministries. Mark my word!

CLAIM YOUR RIGHTS AS CITIZENS
I agree with Mawere's analysis especially when he states that the President, Prime Minister, Ministers and Deputies must be accountable to the electorate. Zimbabweans from all walks of life must be brave enough and stand up and say enough is enough, deadwood must go! It is about you and me being brave to stand up and challenge non-performing politicians. The system must be improved to allow all citizens to exercise their rights. It's no poit criticising for the sake of criticizing. Everyone has a role to play and only when people understand they can make a difference, then there will be change that cannot be stopped by any politician.

Well said.I couldn`t agree with you more,Mr Mawere.This is the only article I`ve read whereby you`re not crying about your stuff that ZANU took away from you.Its high time we Zimbabweans voted people into office based on performance.We should remember that Zimbabwe is a company owned by Zimbabweans.We are the bosses of this company and therefore we shouldn`t call the people that we hire to run our company,CHEF/SHEFU.Politicians we put in office should be answerable to us the owners.We have the power to hire or fire.When your business is making a loss year after year,what do you do? You fire the CEO/MANAGER and replace them with competant individuals.That hasn`t been the case in Zim.We have to do away with this chef mentality.

Mr Mawere not all ministers are political players and chosen by the people. Again I fail to get you when you say ministers do not need to be experts in their fields of work to be good ministers. Which world would do you live in Mr Mawere, you need to have the expertise to be able to deliver as a minister. I have concluded you might have penned your article while in a hurry to attend to some other matters. PLEASE, PLEASE, Please Mr Mawere do not make us endure your half thought ideas.

I have followed your articles Mr Mawere and it suffices to say you have Zimbabwe at heart. Narrow minded and selfish people like Mafikizolo should also be reminded that they ruined Zimbabwe and should shut up. His repressive laws such as POSA where meant to fix Zimbabweans who had nothing but pain of witnessing the country being ruined. We are in a new era Jonso, raise up and face the truth.

Finance Minister
Whether Mawere is logical or Moyo is a jealous former minister and self proclaimed spin doctor, Biti should have stuck to his guns and refused to soil himself with this dirty GNU. Now what we want from him is to fire GONO forthwith, now, pronto without delay. Already we are judging him to see if there is anything that these sell outs can do that will be listened to. I know the evil Bob is the only one who can fire the bustard but lets see if they can make the recommendations.

Biti is the Right Choice
In Zimbabwean Politics, the position of the minister is not that of a technocrat, but a politician. His/her role as a minister is to explain and sell government policies to the public. And those policies are formulated by experts who should be recruited from organisations such as World Bank and IMF, organisations 'that are full of Zimbabweans'' as Mr Moyo told us. I was appalled by the so called professor's lack of understanding the role of a minister in Zimbabwe.

you both fell from grace with zanu. you both ate at the same table with the zealots that have destroyed the country. you are both made from the same fabric, political-****-prostitute-poly fibre. thus what you are no good for anything. mawere is missing his former pay masters not the country he participated in decimating before running to Rivonia an aflluent dwelling area smacks of zanu traits living in luxury plotiing against the voiceless you sordid sacriligious cow. you and jono are just trash, you belong to the dust bin your use by date is long gone so shut the two of you.

FOOLS ARE MANY
Paul Matavire once said Do not enumarate your chicks before the eggs are hatched. So to say Mbiti is the right or wrong choice is very immature- judge not. However there plenty reasons to want to say he is a wrong choice if we consider the job specifications and qualifications required. Hameno we will see. What i know is that he needs to do a lot of home work in recruting qualified and suitable juniors in his depasrtment to carryout this gigantic task ahead of him.

You surely do not expect to be taken seriously with such REACTIVE articles. It sounds you just want to divert from Moyo's view and you get stuck inan akward position of declaring that Biti is the best choive...whch i obviously doubt you said. Sounds like somene clamouring for relevance or "daring to have a different opinion". I dont know but I think its important we rise above the zanu pf way of dong things and that includes selecting ministers. I think you risk losing relevance.

This is the polemic just for the sake of it, and let me assur you it serves no purpose; its bankrupt, to say the least. The argument is that because Zim is at an extremely critical juncture, needs the skilled & knowledgeable guys, it is poor judgment on the part of th PM to make such overtly political; appointments

biti
mutumwa's article goes nowhere painfully slow. Although he's got a point that ministerial posts are for politicians, he's probably wrong that biti's the right person. He's a good opposition politician, granted. But now he needs to realised he's part of the gvt and stop fighting it. How can he, with his legal background, and legislative experience label gono's monetary policy as illegal. my main problem with him is he's fighting the wrong battle. he continues to fight the gvt that he decided to join (his fight with gono is just that). if the he and the mdc agreed to work with mugabe and his "worst cabinet in histroy", why not work with gono. concentrate on changing the gvt as promised, not personal battles which he'll mist likely lose. when those guys went to SA, begging bowl in hand, did they have a clear assessment of the amt of money needed to get zim working again or they just added up civil servant's salaries plus 71new mercs with all extras available for the cabinet and the 3 new presidents. there was not enuf time for him to have consulted industry and commerce, or even within gvt (or the ministry) and come up with a write up detailing how much we need. we need someone who can do better. donor funds in part drove us to where we are today. esap wanted us to retrench to create a culture of entreprenuership, kana ndimiwo. biti, please give us policies that ensure viability of industry and financial independence for the country, not dependency on western, or even african donors.

WHY IS BITI RIGHT CHOICE
Mawere is just praise singing. He needs to qualify why Biti is the best for the post. The fact that Moyo was a wrong choice does not make Biti a right choice. I was expecting a list of reasons to justify the chice of Biti. Instead he just repeated the sloganeering of Gutu. I maintain that Biti does not have the technical and conceptual understanding of finance. This is a technical area just as health and legal affairs. How can Biti challenge Gono and his deputyon technical matters. How can he challenge the Perm Sec o technical matters or his own deputy from ZANU as well as the numerous executives in the Finance Ministry, RBZ and the cash cows such as ZIMRA etc. Biti just has an LLB general. He will learn as time goes on, but do we need a student or a master at thsi hour.
Posted By Lt Col Masoja , : Feb 23 2009 10:25 PM
Mawere be serious !
Its a plain fact that Biti is not qualified as Fin Minister. You just want to oppose Jonathan Moyo and steal the lime light. After all Jonathan has been a minister before and knows what he is talking about and you know that you can go round and cheat Biti on financial issues, which is what what you are reputated for. I had respect for your articles but now I see you hate and fight anything against ZANu or former ZANU, we know where your bitterness comes from.You should comment fairly. Look at the way US elected its secretaries ( ministers) . I thought you always emulated Obama judging from your articles about him. Be consistent bro.Maybe you think if you support anything becoz its MDC you will be pardoned by MDC for your financial crimes. Stop serving your own interests and be patriotic.Selfishness is your problem , its becoz of it that you are not in your home country. Acquiring wealth through unorthodox means.We are better off without your postings.

My first qualification is being Zimbabwean, secondly I have the qualiication of a human being who can air his views on an open and free platform like this one without insulting anyone and lastly I carry a qualification of being level headed when others like you Mr or Mrs Gone Gone fail to substantiate their facts but find solence in provocation. True to your word Muzenda had limited qualifications hence we all know his abilities and again Chikowore had his shortcomings and again the results are there. I have failed to conjure what you really wanted to put across in your writting because being ex-C.I.O has nothing to do with the debate on the floor. Maybe Im slow but you have to bare with me because there are people like that from your motherland. My worry to what Mawere had said was on his conclusiveness on that all ministers are politicians and they do not need to be experts in their field of work. In Zimbabwe we have and still have ministers who are not politicians. People like Guy Georgians, Timothy Stamps, Nkosana Moyo, Naomi Nhiwatiwa. I am ex-C.I.O nekuti I found some better work that was not as pressing as working for the intelligence org.

Mawere may be after something
I am fascinated by Mawere, his articles make a good and interesting read. thats why all you guys are here either as readers or commentators maybe both at times. In his articles though there is a bit of some campaigning to get back into the lime light, I sence a bit of confession from this guy. He slept with the devil then suffered the consiquences. So now he is trying his luck with a new bread of leadership whom he hopes will help him get his said assets back. Apart from the mistrust that I have for Mawere, i like his ideas and his arguments. i agree with Mawere on the issue of Biti as the finance minister and that ministers need not be technocrats but people or say Human beings who are accountable to the electorate. Even dofo rikatungamirira, as long as richiziva kuti kana zvagozha ndinobvunza vanoziva. kana raita basa rouya kuzotaura kuti zvafamba, thats ok with us. Mugabe has so many degrees including Economics, sadly non of those degrees have been manifested in his 29years at the helm of Zim. Surprisingly the odd thing he has done is prove that he is a violent man thereby earning the Degrees in violence during his tunure ari panyanga. I agree with Mawere that what Zimbabwe right now is an Executive which is accountable and honest in its dealings. The abuse of state funds has been the major blow to our government policies. We have some of the best brains working within the ministries but their work comes to naught because of corruption. Biti must focus on eradicating fraud at RBZ and the lack of accountability in RBZ where people fogget to do their jobs and all is let to slide. Biti must use all the power vested in his office to bring RBZ into line. Moyo is a former beneficiary of the patronage system at RBZ so whatever he says its just meant to save his skin. RBZ must produce audited reports of all forex movement from the day Gono sat foot in office. Biti must show that the ministry can function well and rain in rampant spending and abuse of funds even in the local government. biti must now ensure that his ministry is reformed even ZIMRA were corruption and fraud are a daily routine. ZIMRA needs to be reformed and systems must be in place to effectively collect revenue.
