Dear Sisi,

Just as we had expected, that out of all the forensic evidence you laboured to supply about what did or did not transpire on the fateful day of your disfigurement, our enemies have stood firm, feeding the dark cloud which hangs above your ill-fated ordeal. They are relentless in their pursuit to discredit you Sisi and nit picking alleged inconsistencies in your story. So what if the story you tweeted is completely a different book from the story presented in court – isn’t that what they call freedom of expression, and besides Magistrates don’t read tweets, they expect a fresh serving of their own when it comes to trial accounts. It is shocking how ignorant and backward some of these comments on social networking platforms are –  for crying out loud have they not ever watched a simple movie called the Matrix. If they have then they will know that there are many parallel universes, and in each one Sisi, there is a replica of you, which explains how you ended up with two completely divorced accounts of what happened on Sunday. And for as long as it takes we stand by you, never mind from which universe the current you is from at any given time, and which ever account you give.

Brother Brian must pay and pay he will for bashing you blue-black like that. (Vazopinda munjodzi chaiyo manje tsano Brian, apa imi Sisi mapona). The cause we are fighting for is not about consistencies, character histories or even tact, its about getting the story out there and pump it with fact, fiction, thoughts and whatever arsenal we can lay our hands and mouths on. This is what will win the war, and this particular battle is already won. November 29, when your trial resumes seems an eternity, is there no one we can buy lunch for Sisi, so that things move a little faster, or perhaps not, since the trial will nest itself deep in the thick of 16 days against gender violence. Maybe then we will have the full backing of others from the women’s movement who have remained suspiciously mum on such an important matter involving a high profile figure like you Sisi. You are not Maneta or Bev Sisi, they ought to give you more respect. I will write to you again Sisi when the trial resumes. Just my thoughts, nothing personal.
