Addressing guests at a dinner hosted by Zimbabwe’s Ambassador to Iran, Nicholas Kitikiti, President Robert Mugabe said that he is not troubled by the recently formed MDC Alliance as it constitutes of political zeroes who have no record of being fighters.
Said Mugabe:
We may have bits and pieces, lots of bits and pieces that call themselves parties, trying to come together. And I have said in the past, they don’t have any record, any record of their having been fighters anywhere. Political zeroes. I have said it does not matter how many zeroes you try to put together, they never constitute a unit; they remain zeroes. But the party is there, the two parties (Zanu and Zapu) that can demonstrate by showing the graves, remains of those who perished in the struggle. This is what continues to bring the people to us. They (the opposition) will never ever succeed as long as the party continues to be united. And I’m glad that is the situation.
