Own Correspondent|Tensions and excitement are high in Harare this morning ahead of MDC President Nelson Chamisa presentation of the party’s State of the Nation Agenda (SONA) 2020 road-map at the historic Stodart Hall in Mbare High Density Suburb of Harare.

The rally was moved from its original set venue at Mai Musodzi Hall also in Mbare last week after police barred Chamisa from holding the launch claiming they were busy with the opening of schools for 2020.

Schools opened last week Tuesday.

The party then rescheduled the meeting to Tuesday this week at Stodart Hall in the same suburb.

Responding to the banning of his address last week, Chamisa furiously twitted he would in future, defy attempts by the police to bar him from holding public gatherings.

Thousands of MDC supporters are expected to attend the rally which will make the hall too small for the gathering.

According to party spokesperson Luke Tamborinyoka, SONA is an MDC plan of action for 2020.

“From here, the tempo of our democratic struggle rises. President Chamisa will be laying bare to the people of Zimbabwe our cogent plan of action, our cogent plan in order of prosecution of the democratic struggle and programme of action of how we are going to reclaim the people’s struggle,” he said.
