His decision to change the youth league executive has caused many problems. People in the party are very angry. Many senior leaders do not agree with him. Now, his leadership is in danger. The people he is supposed to lead do not trust him anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>John Paradza, the deputy secretary of the youth league, is fighting against Machakaire. Paradza is very unhappy with the changes. He says the changes are not fair. He also says Machakaire did not follow the rules. Another senior party leader, Obert Mpofu, also attacked Machakaire\u2019s decision. He said Machakaire\u2019s actions were not allowed by the party and should never have happened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On December 9, Machakaire made big changes in the youth league executive. He did not ask for advice from anyone. He did not get approval from other leaders. He made the changes on his own. He moved Tsungai Makumbe from the commissariat to secretary for finance. He removed Garikai Zonde from that role and gave him a new position as secretary for science and technology. Phillipa Mukoko was given the role of secretary for external affairs, while Munashe Mtutsa became secretary for information and publicity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Machakaire said these changes were necessary. He said they would help the youth league achieve its goals. He also said they would support President Mnangagwa\u2019s Vision 2030. He believed the reshuffle would help the league work better. But many people did not agree with him. They said his decision was wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paradza, the deputy secretary, strongly opposed the changes. He told the affected members to stay in their old positions. He wanted Obert Mpofu to give official instructions first. Paradza said the reshuffle was not legal. He said Machakaire had no right to make such big changes on his own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The anger against Machakaire grew quickly. Obert Mpofu released a statement against him. He said the reshuffle was illegal. He said it could create problems in the party. He also said it could make people lose trust in the leadership. Mpofu also reminded Paradza that deputies do not have the power to overrule their bosses. But at the same time, he said Machakaire should have asked for permission before making changes. He said the matter would be discussed by senior party leaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Machakaire wrote a letter to Paradza. In the letter, he told Paradza to stop fighting the reshuffle. He warned that there would be consequences if Paradza continued to resist. But the fight did not stop. Many people continued to criticize Machakaire\u2019s actions. More and more people in the party started turning against him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Machakaire\u2019s troubles do not stop with the reshuffle. Reports say that he is not popular among youth league members. In some provinces, like Masvingo and Midlands, many young members support Paradza instead. Machakaire also struggles to gather big crowds at party events. This has made people question if he is a good leader. Some youth league members have even refused to attend his meetings. This has made things worse for him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, people in the party are talking about removing Machakaire from his position. His decisions have backfired on him. Many people say he is the cause of his own problems. The phrase \u2018hoist by his own petard\u2019 explains his situation. It means he has been hurt by his own actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Machakaire\u2019s future is now uncertain. Will he survive this crisis, or will the party remove him? No one knows yet. But one thing is clear: the Zanu PF Youth League is in chaos. And Machakaire is at the center of it all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tinoda Machakaire, the leader of the Zanu PF Youth League, is in serious trouble.
