The Nelson Chamisa’s led MDC Alliance is on countrywide crusade to consult members over the name to use in future elections after rival Thokozani Khupe snatched the party’s name.

MDC Alliance secretary general Charlton Hwende said the party was consulting members on the name the party should use.

“Some of our party members want us to continue with the name despite Khupe claiming ownership to it.

“We also have other members who are saying that let’s change the name and adopt a new name because of the problems being associated with it by Khupe working with Zanu PF.

This group is mainly composed of some of our party elders and founding members but we are discussing the issue,” Hwende said.
