Farai Dziva|MDC leader Nelson Chamisa has lamented the chaotic state of economic affairs in Zimbabwe.
Chamisa addressed a news conference in Harare today(Thursday).
See below the major points of his speech that have been compiled by the MDC Youth Assembly Information and Publicity Department:
We have a new team of diverse talents, that will help in defining a new course for Zimbabwe.
We are a party of democracy and democracy is about multiple and different opinion.
It is about striking a balance between loyalty, competency and meritocracy.
There is no better team than the MDC team.
We are building the party that is going to win any future elections.
We will make sure that this party is a party of excellence in all facets.
This party is unrivalled in terms of human resource and capacity in this land.
There is been attack on civic and political leadership, henceforth we are going to engage leaders in the region to help proffer solution.
Our GDP is embarrassing when compared to other countries like Ghana.
Everything has become expensive except of course oxygen that we breath for free.
The government is no longer in control and a new government called inflation is now in control.
There is now a dark cloud of political tensions in the country but we have always maintained that we will first engage in dialogue to find solutions.
We are going to introduce term limits for all office holders of the party.
We are changing the top down approach by strengthening our branches instead of wards or districts.
We are going to revert to a single Vice President instead of 3.
We are going to honour our freedom fighters by having a slot for them in the National Council as well as setting up a War Veterans Council.
We are going to be introducing an independent electoral board to run our internal elections.
We are going to have an alternative cabinet instead of a shadow cabinet.
Resolutions to the current crisis
- Political Pressure
- Dialogue
We will put pressure on ED so that we have genuine dialogue not the current Polad monologue.
3.Transitional Mechanism
4.Comprehensive Reform Agenda
- Proper Elections
We will then go for elections where a credible electoral commission will run the electoral process not ZEC.
We are going to have two deputies for the Secretary General and Organizing Secretary departments.
