"If a politician finds he is failing, then he will often link his opponents to South Africa to discredit them." Nkomo charged that Mugube was trying to discredit him and his party in order to establish a one-party dictatorship. After Mugabe fired Nkomo from the government, thousands of Nko-mo's supporters deserted from the national army to become brigands in the bush.
