The MDC has completed six Provincial Congresses with structures electing Provincial leaders and nominating National leaders.

The Process involves all three wings of the party including the Women and Youth Assemblies.

Structures of the party are traveling from different corners of their Provinces to a single centre where elections are conducted.

The process has been smooth in North America, Matebeleland South, Matebeleland North, Midlands, Mashonaland West and Mashonaland East.

Today the same process will take place in respect of Mashonaland Central.

The commitment demonstrated by structures highlights the belief of Zimbabweans in democracy. In some provinces, depending on number of districts, the process has been long yet the delegates have displayed maturity and patience.

The MDC is in the process of strengthening the people’s alternative.

The National Congress shall be a festival of democracy and ideas where structures will debate policy and institutional reforms in an endeavour to oil the party machinery.
