By Jane Mlambo| MDC Spokesperson Daniel Molokele has dismissed claims of fissures in the party leadership over action to take to pressurize government to address the economic crisis in the country.

According to story published by some online media, party vice President Tendai Biti and Job Sikhala organised flash demos held in Harare last week without the knowledge of their President Nelson Chamisa.

But Molokele said the reports was nothing but hogwash as everyone in the party leadership was aware of the new stance by the party to hold random protests against Mnangagwa’s illegitimacy.

Below is Molokele’s full response;

Hogwash. Everyone in the leadership knows about these flash demos which are being organised by the party. . We have collectively drawn a line in the sand as a leadership that henceforth we will not notify the police. You will notice last night the Women’s Assembly did their flash demo and we are all aware and solidly behind them. Someone thinks they can drive a wedge between he leadership through such silly stories when the whole leadership is duly behind 2020 being the Year of Action as announced by the people’s President whom is now being said to be fearful of the very action he personally announced. It is none other than President Chamisa who declared 2020 to be the year of Action so how can he be against that which he personally announced to the Nation? He was clear at last week’s presser that everyone throughout his provincial tours is fully behind action. In any case, how can a credible story with such allegations not have the MDC voice, or President Chamisa’s voice for balance? Is this journalism or something else? For the record, the leadership is united behind President Chamisa and his call for 2020 to be the year of action. And these flash demos are the beginning of something much bigger and more sonorous.
