VICE President Kembo Mohadi has dismissed recent media reports claiming that President Emmerson Mnangagwa and MDC Alliance
leader Mr Nelson Chamisa are indirectly engaging each other in talks for a Government of National Unity (GNU).
According to reports by some sections of the media, quoting unnamed sources within Zanu-PF, the ruling party is allegedly already
pushing to have opposition figure, Mr Tendai Biti, in Government “because of his links with the West and the United States in particular.”
In an interview with the Chronicle yesterday,
VP Mohadi dismissed the reports, saying Zanu-PF was not interested in any coalition talks with the opposition as the ruling party
has total control of Parliament.
“We haven’t heard anything of that sort or any approach from those that would want a government of national unity with us, but if they want to discuss with us they can come
but certainly not on a GNU because we have got the mandate emanating from the two thirds majority in Parliament. We can do it alone unlike in 2008 where we had a sort of
hung Parliament. This time there isn’t going to be that kind of

Kembo-Mohadi

arrangement,” he said.Chronicle
