Khupe Favours Dialogue Over Street Protests
MDC-T president, Thokozani Khupe, is against street protests as a means to resolve the challenges affecting the country.
In an interview with The Herald, Khupe argued that issues should be resolved through dialogue rather than stone-throwing.
She added that the Political Actors Dialogue (POLAD) is a good platform for dialogue. Said Khupe:
My issue is that you can only resolve issues by sitting around the table and talking to each other.
You cannot resolve issues by throwing stones, by burning tyres and by going out there.
But you can only resolve issues by sitting around and discussing issues like we are doing right now (in Polad).
If we sit down with them (Government) and they explain to us what is going on, we can also give our input.
Iโm pretty sure that Government and the President listen to some of the issues that we present to them.
Khupe urged authorities to urgently deal with the exchange rates as they are pushing prices up. She said that government officials must with the issue of prices.
