MDC activists here have scoffed at claims made by the party’ s former national chairman, Lovemore Moyo, saying the politician blatantly missed the mark.

Moyo told a daily paper at the weekend the late MDC president Morgan Tsvangirai was to blame for the leadership quagmire in the country’ s largest opposition party.

Moyo further accused Tsvangirai of deviating from the party’ s principles.

Responding to Moyo’ s remarks, Masvingo Veteran Activists Association yesterday said the form Speaker of Parliament was” a sinking man who was desperately clutching at reeds in murky waters. ”

“No sane person will pay attention to Moyo’s rants.He has since resigned from the party so who is he to comment on MDC issues?

We wish to state that he must stop denigrating our late iconic leader, Morgan Richard Tsvangirai,” said Philip Mugabe a member of Masvingo Veteran Activists Association.
