Farai Dziva|Political observer Ezra Tshisa Sibanda believes the MDC A electoral processes are chaotic.

Below is Sibanda’s analysis of the MDC A Congress:
MDC is going for Congress but which structures will the party use to elect new leadership?

From the look of things, this Congress appear to be using MDC T structures left by the late Morgan Tsvangirai. If indeed they are using these structures, it means people like Tendai Biti, Welshman Ncube and all others in the alliance are not eligible to contest because they don’t belong to the original MDC T and are not members.

What happens to members of the parties they led if ever they have followers?
As far as l am concerned MDC Alliance has no structures and it’s an alliance of political parties created for the purposes of last year’ s elections. A political alliance is an agreement for cooperation among different political parties on common political agenda, often for purposes of contesting an election.

Therefore that alliance should have been dissolved after losing elections. If these leaders of different political parties want to contest in MDC Congress, what happens to their original parties? Why not dissolve those parties and join MDC?

You can’t be elected by MDC structures and still lead another party outside MDC. This is political theatre!!!
