Jane Mlambo| President Emmerson Mnangagwa has insisted that July 30 Polls were peaceful, free and fair, remarks that will not go down well with the opposition MDC Alliance which has dismissed the outcome of the Presidential elections as a cooked result.

Addressing the ninth session of parliament today, Mnangagwa said Zimbabweans heeded his calls for peaceful political contestation saying his government has begun entrenching constitutionalism and democratic practices and values.

”As per my promise, the recently held harmonised elections whose outcome constituted this parliament were peaceful, free, fair and democratic,” said Mnangagwa.

MDC Alliance leader, Nelson Chamisa is on record saying Mnangagwa rigged elections.

Chamisa who challenged the Presidential election results at the Constitutional Court where he sought to expose irregularities that proved why the elections were not credible.

The case was dismissed but Chamisa insists that the court did not give him a chance to submit subpoenas that had hardcore evidence to prove his case.
