Farai Dziva|A Zimbabwe Council of
Churches (ZCC) official has urged MDC leader Nelson Chamisa to recognise Emmerson Mnangagwa as the legitimate President of Zimbabwe.

ZCC secretary-general Kenneth Mtata said Chamisa should swallow his pride and accept that Mnangagwa is the legitimate Head of State.

Mtata made the remarks during an interview with state media where he also called for inclusive political dialogue.

“Dialogue is imminent, but it is just a matter of time. President Mnangagwa is the Head of State and Government. He is our statesman.

He has the keys for dialogue, (the) MDC-A leader should swallow his pride and engage and consider President Mnangagwa as the President of Zimbabwe.

Dialogue is coming, we need to prepare for it, but it might take time. We do not need foreign intervention.”

Chamisa has flatly rejected the outcome of the 2018 presidential election in which Mnangagwa was declared the winner amid controversial circumstances.
