By A Correspondent | The MDC Alliance Vice President Tendai Biti has said his party can revert  to the simple Chamisa tag, if the nemesis Douglas Mwonzora goes ahead to  steal the MDC Alliance name. 

 

Biti was quoted by the Alpha Media Holdings’ Heart and Soul Television (HStv) saying the party will likely to contest the 2023 elections under a different name to avoid Mwonzora’s plot to confuse voters.

“My personal opinion is that we should never abandon the name MDC, it’s a personal opinion, and my personal opinion again is that if Mwonzora continues to do the stupid thing, then for the purposes of the next election or by-election let’s just call ourselves MDC Chamisa,” Biti said.

 

He continued:

“After all, in 2008 we called ourselves MDC Tsvangirai to deal with challenges that were there. I have walked the length and breadth of this country, the name MDC is well invested in the people of Zimbabwe. How do we cast away a brand that was built for decades? It’s so difficult to build a brand.”
