“Nothing could be further from the truth,” says a statement from the MDC. “We are a popular political party that is ready to govern on its own and we take this opportunity to reiterate that we have absolutely nothing to do with the ongoing vicious factional fighting taking place in Zanu (PF).
“In its desperation, Zanu (PF) has sought to rope us into their factional circus in order to divert attention away from more pressing national issues such as the collapsing economy as well as the collapsing health delivery system.”
The MDC’s recent congress that came up with resolutions aimed at strengthening the party structures as well as refocusing and re-energising its institutional framework. “We are ready to form the next government and capable of rescuing Zimbabwe from the prevailing socio-economic suffering solely caused by years of Zanu (PF) misrule, corruption and mis-governance. We do not need to work in conjunction with any faction in order to save the country from the prevailing unprecedented human suffering,” says the statement.
“In the spirit of the new thrust of the party, the MDC will today kick-start training and induction programmes for the leadership of all the party's 12 provinces. We are recreating our party into a formidable unit that will certainly be well positioned to resoundingly win the next elections, whenever they will be held.”
