Mwonzora breathes fire as MDC leaders plot to kick him out of the party

Mwonzora breathes fire as MDC leaders plot to kick him out of the party.AS DIVISIONS continue to ravage the MDC over how to tackle President Emmerson Mnangagwa and Zanu-PF, as well as its simmering leadership tussles, former party secretary-general Douglas Mwonzora says he will fight tooth and nail to fend off attempts to eject him from the ranks of the main opposition,


the Daily News On Sunday reports.This comes as the MDC is also sharply divided over the proposed dialogue between its leader Nelson Chamisa and Mnangagwa – which a large cross-section of Zimbabweans believes is the only sure way of extricating the country from its worsening economic rot.And with the MDC’s leadership wrangles now having spilled to the Supreme Court – which last month reserved its judgment after Chamisa challenged an earlier High Court ruling nullifying his leadership of the country’s main opposition party – Mwonzora is facing the gun over the issue, with some party youths demanding his summary sacking.


But a miffed Mwonzora – who is suspected of having “engineered” the court challenge which nullified Chamisa’s leadership in May this year – emphatically told the Daily News on Sunday yesterday that he was not going to yield to the push to have him expelled from the party.“What is happening is the work of little, corrupt and misguided elements, who are being abused by some senior politicians who have failed to deliver.“I am basically being harassed for criticising some senior party leaders who went to Zanu-PF headquarters to negotiate for themselves.“I have never done anything wrong.


It was in fact me who was wronged by being dragged to the Supreme Court.The people who dragged me there came to their senses in the Supreme Court and withdrew the application against me. “They even offered to pay me over this. The party does not belong to individuals. I will defend myself.Anybody who thinks that I am going to be their victim must think again,” the defiant Mwonzora said.“For the record, my pre-occupation is the struggle for democracy, justice and fairness.We have the duty to deliver our people from poverty and misery.“These senior leaders who are abusing the youth must concentrate on improving the performance of the party.The party has not done well in the various by-elections.


“That is what leaders have to deal with and not engage in petty, internal self-cannibalism,” the angry Mwonzora told the Daily News on Sunday further.Emphasising his point, the MDC deputy secretary for International Relations said there was no chance that he would leave the party, even if he was to be put under more “needless pressure”.“Of course not. The revolution does not belong to the leaders. It does not belong to individuals. I dare them to try it.“There is a systematic targeting of people who were loyal to the late Morgan Tsvangirai. I have been at the receiving end of hate language, propaganda, falsehoods, but I shall not be shaken by that.“

Chamisa's lawyer spoke out about Mnangagwa's fraud evidence during the election

OPPOSITION MDC leader Nelson Chamisa will launch a renewed bid to oust President Emmerson Mnangagwa by seeking to have the Constitutional Court (ConCourt) review its own judgment based on “new evidence.”.Chamisa’s lawyer Thabani Mpofu said after studying academic works on the elections published by self-exiled former minister Jonathan Moyo, they were now making efforts to have the judgment on the 2018 presidential elections set aside.The country’s top court ruled that Chamisa had failed to prove allegations of fraud during the presidential election, a vote which left the nation polarised and violence on the streets of the capital Harare.Mpofu said the basis of approaching the ConCourt was because they now believe that the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (Zec) presented to the courts false information and, therefore, their call for the judgment to be set aside.“The general rule is that once a final judgment or order has been given, the judge who gave it or any other judge of parallel juri...
