summit on Zimbabwe’s elections which is reportedly scheduled for July 19.
President Robert Mugabe revealed on Monday at a Zanu (PF) rally in Marondera that the AU was set to hold the summit after it was petitioned by the MDCs.
The two MDCs contend that Zanu (PF) has created an uneven playing ground ahead of the polls through the party’s reluctance to implement reforms pertaining to the media and security sector among others.
The parties allege that Mugabe is pushing Zimbabwe into a rushed election that will lack in credibility.
“They (the MDCs) have taken the matter to the AU, which used to be our OAU. So we have sent Chinamasa to be prepared on the 19th of July.
They want to postpone elections, but that will never happen with the absolute deceitful British who are supporting that,” said Mugabe.
MDC-T spokesperson, Douglas Mwonzora, could neither confirm nor deny whether the summit was still on.
“We have not received any communication at the moment. We do not know whether the summit is on or not because so far, there is no communication that has been sent to us,” said Mwonzora.
The deputy spokesperson of the MDC led by Welshman Ncube, Kurauone Chihwayi, said: “No one knows whether that summit is on or not. We have not received any communication or invitation to attend the summit and I don’t have information pertaining to any kind of presentation that the President (Welshman Ncube) is going to make at the summit,” said Chihwayi.
Mugabe on Monday vowed that the July 31 date for election will stand no matter the outcome of the AU summit.
