MDC president, Nelson Chamisa has won 12 out of the 12 nominations passed by the party’s provincial structures so far.

There is only 1 province left – South Africa.

If Chamisa gets South Africa, he would go to the MDC Congress in May uncontested.

Yesterday Chamisa was nominated by the UK province.

Said MDC Spokesperson Jacob Mafume:

The party has completed 11 provincial congresses where delegates elected provincial leaders and submitted their nominations for standing committee positions. President Chamisa has received 11 nominations so far. There have been massive nominations for vice-presidents and fierce contests in other positions.

Congress is the decision-making body and it can decide to accept nominations from the floor, but the rules dictate that delegates at Congress should know the candidates in advance. There’s no need to ambush delegates and therefore there should be compelling for such a move.

MDC UK nominations.
