UK Prime Minister Invites Opposition Parties To Coronavirus Briefing

While the Zimbabwean government has a low opinion of the country’s main opposition party, the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) led by Nelson Chamisa, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has invited opposition parties for a meeting to reflect on what has been done so far in dealing with the coronavirus.

In a letter dated April 4, Johnson said the meeting will be held next week and will also be attended by the Chief Medical Officer and Chief Scientific Advisor. The letter reads in part:

As party leaders, we have a duty to work together at this moment of national emergency. Therefore, I would like to invite all leaders of opposition parties in Parliament to a briefing with myself, the Chief Medical Officer and Chief Scientific Adviser next week.

I want to listen to your views and update you on the measures we have taken so far, such as rapidly expanding testing and providing economic support to businesses and individuals across the country.

The Government of Zimbabwe declared a 21-day national lockdown which began at midnight on Monday, a move which shut down State organs such as Parliament and the Judiciary.

The following day, the Supreme Court ruled that MDC leader Nelson Chamisa is illegitimate and barred the party’s vice president Tendai Biti from accessing the party’s offices in central Harare.
