Opposition MDC leader Nelson Chamisa has told his party supporters to get ready to go into the streets to demonstrate against the failing government of President Emmerson Mnangagwa.

Addressing thousands of MDC Supporters in a party rally held at Masvingo’s Mucheke Stadium, Chamisa said he had heard the calls from the majority of Zimbabweans to show discontent with the leadership of Mnangagwa and will soon be calling on Zimbabweans to join him to protest against Mnangagwa.

“We have heard your cries on the sufferings you are enduring under this government and want to tell you that we are ready to lead you into the streets to tell Mnangagwa how unhappy we are,” said Chamisa.

“This we will do in the most peaceful and most organised way within the confines of the constitution of Zimbabwe,” Chamisa added.

The opposition party passed a congress resolution in May this year that it will go through all possible avenues within the constitution to force Mnangagwa to resign before the 2023 elections.

Party Deputy National Chairman Job Sikhala is currently in custody in Masvingo after he told party supporters that the party will not stop at anything to force Mnangagwa to resign.
