By A Correspondent- Senator Douglas Mwonzora, who is the former Secretary General for the opposition MDC has called for unity among party stalwarts warning party youths against being used to divide the party and push factional agendas.

Mwonzora said this in an exclusive interview with ZimEye on Thursday following the leaking of a letter purportedly written by Denford Ngadziore, the Harare Province Youth Secretary alleging that Mwonzora was plotting to topple the current leader of the MDC Nelson Chamisa.

According to the letter, Mwonzora allegedly said that the MDC leadership was “silly” as they would lose the case against Thokozani Khupe in a development which would grant him powers to recall legislators and councilors from office in a move that would alienate Chamisa.

However, Mwonzora dispelled the allegations arguing that he never said what Ngadziore was alleging arguing that he was a staunch party supporter whose only enemy was Zanu Pf and not anyone from the party.

He said:

“My eyes are on the ball… and all i want is to see the party retain its former glory as it was before… I would never recall the members of parliament from office, why would i do that? I do not have the powers nor the aspirations to do it… Party youths should not be used to push certain agendas against my person. Focus should be on mobilising people and solving why we are losing by- elections….”
