Nelson Chamisa President Nelson Chamisa of the MDC Alliance has strongly blasted party rebels Thokozani Khupe and Douglas Mwonzora of dining with ZANU PF and President Emmerson Mnangagwa to destroy democracy needed to take the party forward.
Speaking in a hugely subscribed first erally in the country on Sunday, Chamisa said democracy in Zimbabwe was under siege as the State continued to arrest and attack citizens.
“You have seen literally everyone is under attack. Journalists have been arrested, lawyers have been arrested, labour leaders have been arrested, and church leaders are under attack.
“Look at what happened to the three ladies, Joanna Mamombe, Netsai Marova, and Cecilia Chimbiri. We thought these tactics had gone with (late president Robert) Mugabe,” he said.
The opposition leader, who is currently facing a number of challenges including having his MPs and councillors being recalled from Parliament and local councils on the orders of rival MDC-T led by Thokozani Khupe and Douglas Mwonzora declared his former colleagues as party to the threats on democracy.
