By Terrence Mawawa| There is serious bickering over the selection of candidates in the MDC Alliance, it has emerged.

The alliance partners are involved in a serious tussle for urban constituencies.

In Kwekwe former MDC MP Settlement Chikwinya, who has since joined PDP, has declared he will contest for the Mbizo Constituency Parliamentary seat, despite efforts by MDC officials to block his candidature.

Chikwinya said the seat was allocated to PDD and he would not bow down to pressure from MDC stalwarts.

“We must do away with the big brother mentality.

The seat was allocated to PDP and we agreed on that.

Surprisingly MDC stalwarts want one Charles Madhiwa to represent the alliance.

I am ready to contest for the seat on behalf of the alliance,” a PDP official said.
