By Own Correspondent| Opposition leader Nelson Chamisa has dismissed testimony made before the Kgalema Motlanthe led Commission of Inquiry that he organised protests shortly before the announcement of election results.

Chamisa refuted the allegations that party supporters demonstrated and destroyed property after his instruction adding that there was no way he would have mobilised citizens to demonstrate against an election outcome which was in his favour.

Speaking before the  7 member team, Chamisa said:

“As the legitimate MDC and as its leader, we did not give any instructions to demonstrate on August 1. When we make decisions to demonstrate, we are an organised party with organs and national structures..We do not just wake up and say go and demonstrate.

We have meetings….the National Executive is there to make decisions. Decisions are not made nicodemously, they are made in broad daylight and we always inform the police. We have demonstrated before and we are going to demonstrate again as we are going to do on November 29.”
