Tsvangirai “rusty bolt”

Former Movement for Democratic Change Marondera legislator Ian Kay, today likened party leader Morgan Tsvangirai to a “rusty bolt” and a captain of a sinking ship. Joining the chorus of senior MDC officials calling for Tsvangirai to step down, Kay said: “This is like a soccer team. If the coach continues losing, there is need for the technical board to sit down and deal with the issue……There is need to plan ahead before the ship sinks, and if there is need to change the coach, then let it be. Or should I say it is like a rusty bolt? There is need for it to be removed and replaced with a new one rather than leave it like that.”
