AhmedNasir On point —> "In Africa, Morgan Tsvangirai comes in different styles and forms. He is an opposition leader who perennially contests the presidential election. He has a sizable number of supporters and a realistic chance of winning the contest. But he always comes short. He sells himself as a messiah of his country but more to the West than his people. He never concedes defeat. He always alleges that the winning candidate has engaged in massive and fraudulent ballot stuffing and other forms of electioneering malpractices. He calls for mass action or helps trigger widespread violence. The Wikipedia dictionary calls this African phenomenon of perennial losers crying foul the “Raila doctrine”. It means the election in a given country is free and fair only when that losing candidate is declared the winner. This continental phenomenon is currently playing out in Zimbabwe."
