MDC leader Nelson Chamisa's latest move excites Mnangagwa's Zanu PF

MDC leader Nelson Chamisa's latest move excites Mnangagwa's Zanu PF.Chances for dialogue between President Emmerson Mnangagwa and opposition MDC leader, advocate Nelson Chamisa have been increased following the move by the MDC to drop some of its demands.The MDC dropped the demand for a foreign mediator over the weekend saying that what was important was having a neutral convenor,


 local or international.The development was received well by ZANU PF which has been insisting that no foreigner will be engaged for the purposes of dialogue. Speaking to the DailyNews in an exclusive interview, ZANU PF secretary for administration, Obert Mpofu said.“If the MDC genuinely wants dialogue they should engage us locally and not play tough when the issues they are talking about affect Zimbabweans.“However, it is noteworthy that the MDC has now seen the light on this.”.


Various stakeholders including church leaders, human rights activists and the international community have been calling upon the MDC and ZANU PF to solve their impasse which they say was worsening the socio-economic and political crises in the country.This comes when the country’s economy has been deteriorating rapidly thereby causing severe pain to the general populace. Vice President General Chiwenga holds meeting with British ambassador Melanie Robinson.British Ambassador to Zimbabwe Ms Melanie Robinson yesterday paid a courtesy call on Vice President Constantino Chiwenga where they discussed various issues, including reforms being implemented by the Government and the humanitarian situation in the country.


Ms Robinson, who was accompanied by the head of the Department for International Development Ms Cate Turton, said her country wanted Zimbabwe to succeed.“We had a very good conversation. I had the opportunity to say to the Vice President that the UK above all, wants to see Zimbabwe succeed,” she said.“We want to see a pathway towards a more prosperous democratic and peaceful future and for us that means pursuing the reforms with vigour, both political and economic reforms.”The reform programme being implemented by the Government has seen various laws being passed in Parliament that include the Maintenance of Peace and Order Act,

the Zimbabwe Development Agency Bill and the Companies and other Entities Act.MOPA repealed the Public Order and Security Act (POSA) as part of measures to open up democratic space and regulate gatherings and demonstrations.Ms Robinson said the British government had committed £54 million for humanitarian assistance to Zimbabwe.“We also had a chance to talk about the humanitarian situation in the country and our concern is that there are people who are food insecure and there are people who are struggling with health and education.“


As the UK, we are providing £49 million for the food situation and a further £5 million for health, to prevent cholera outbreak,” Ms Robinson said.“We talked about what we have been doing and we asked the VP to share information about what Government is doing and to provide information on what is available in the grain stores so that we can coordinate our efforts in the interest of Zimbabwean people.“

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...
