Prof Chirwa on the other hand may have time and the audacity of hope, as allies but can he resonate with the fisherman on the banks of Lake Mweru in Luapula or the marketeer in Chawama compound in Lusaka?
Can he speak the language of fish and impwa?
Can he pull up an Obama speech ?
I know Prof Chirwa holds impeccable credentials, however I have not heard his manner of speaking nor do I know his personality. I truly hope his bold declaration that “he will not be bruised” will hold true after the 2011 elections.
As Eastern province MMD chairman Mr. Mangani says
“Yes, he may be well educated. But politics are different from academic qualifications. In politics you don’t need to brag. Politics will terminate his education and become a nobody within a short period of time. It is very normal and this is what is happening in the Zambian politics and Africa at large,”
Kashikulu wishes the Profesori good luck and prays he has a very thick skin and very deep pockets indeed!

Zambian politics follow similary paterns.Proffessor chirwa will have to be baptised just like Ngondo though this case differs in that the MMD NEC has to decide his fate will have to vote.
If any recalls how the late Anderson Mazoka was rejected within MMD ,A richman wants to stand as a section chairman? ,that is how they used to retort Mazoka.That is how it has began with Chirwa.There are may already exist MMD intrested parties who will bruise Chirwa.Bruising in Zambia is borowed from Michael Sata himself, a meaning whose meaning may be deeper even the possible use of hooliganism can be suspected.
