MDC-T Vice President Nelson Chamisa has warned the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (Zec) that his party will only participate in the 2018 harmonised elections if it is satisfied with the integrity of the voter registration exercise. Sepaking on Sunday at a rally in Kuwadzana 4, Harare, Chamisa said:
We resist the issue of short changing the proper preparations of elections according to the constitution. Zanu PF wants to have an early election in March next year but we are saying no to that. Elections should only take place in September according to the constitution,
MDC-T will only allow elections to go on once if it is satisfied with the voter registration exercise and once everyone has been registered, especially our youths. Opposition does not care about Zanu PF’s problems. All we are concerned about is a free, fair and credible election.
We entered into elections lacking any knowledge on Zanu PF’s rigging tricks.Let us help those in darkness. Everyone wants change. Even those in the ruling party like the uniformed forces and other government agents want change, so we should help them come out of darkness.
