Tinashe Sambiri|MDC Alliance leader, President Nelson Chamisa has said a return to legitimacy is the only solution to the country’s deepening political crisis.

Addressing journalists in Harare on Friday, President Chamisa described the persecution of veteran journalist Hopewell Chin’ono as a desperate attempt by Mr Emmerson Mnangagwa’s administration to muzzle alternative voices.

“Zimbabwe is in a deep crisis.Journalism is not a crime.The persecution of Hopewell Chin’ono indicates that Zimbabwe is a Banana Republic in which journalists are harassed for exposing corruption,” said President Chamisa.

He added:”Our offices are in the minds and hearts of the people of Zimbabwe.We do not need physical offices to push for freedom. The people’s party has its headquarters in the people’s minds.Nobody can stop the people’s struggle.”
