MAKAMBA JR PRESIDENTIAL AMBITIONS BLIND HIS JUDGMENT.
Makamba Jr is overambitious. And, sadly this puts his doddering political career in a red corner but it is unconscionable to label him an economic saboteur. For a simple reason, his acts may have violated civil laws but not criminal ones.
Those are facts.
We have already noted Makamba presidential ambitions cloud his judgment because he fails to grasp whatever he does must garland his appointer posing no leadership threat to his boss.
This colossal error of judgment has happened thrice! During Mwendazake reign, he had dissolved the NEMC Board of Directors without the consent of his boss and Mwendazake did not spare him when he revoked those errors. But, at least he spared him the ignominy of getting the sack....
Later, he was involved in undermining Mwendazake by siding with his daddy in a defamation grouses which led to be axed from the cabinet. Makamba bribed his way back to parliament following his most realistic challenger (a CDM turncoat) deliberately fluffed his forms by expunging his photos from them after receiving kickbacks from him....
Many had wondered whether Mwendazake will not block him from gunning down the parliamentary seat but after profusely begging for his dear life Mwendazake forgave him all of his sins which were too nefarious.
The reappointment of Makamba Jr was an eyebrow raiser because it was too soon to restore his career without full rehab but we know being a JK acolyte that appointment was no surprise. However, like most of JK sidekicks they have issues save for a few of them and Makamba Jr appointment needs to be revoked before he commits another mea culpa.
We had already foreshadowed that Mama ought to dissociate with JK if she has to run the country in peace but resuscitation of these dead bones is weakening her own capabilities.
We need fresh blood untainted with our murky past but who is listening?
If someone messes three times and is still endured that amounts to favouritism because others have been shown the door.
A question which will be answered shortly is whether JK minions are untouchables. We will know if Makamba Jr hangs on after all these commissions of insubordination.
