SOUTH AFRICA President Cyril Ramaphosa’s envoys to Zimbabwe, Sydney Mufamadi and Baleka Mbete, met with Zimbabwe’s President Emmerson Mnangagwa in Harare on Monday and quickly left the country without meeting with the MDC Alliance delegation.
This despite earlier commitments to engage the opposition part.
“The MDC Alliance was formally requested to be available for a meeting today, the 10th of August 2020, with the special envoys that were deployed by President Cyril Ramaphosa to Zimbabwe,” MDC Alliance spokesperson Fadzayi Mahere said in a statement.
“A delegation remained on standby from 10 am this morning only to be advised at the end of the day that the special envoys would be returning to South Africa without meeting the MDC Alliance delegation, in order to brief President Ramaphosa on the outcomes of their meeting with Mr. Mnangagwa.
“We can only assume that the failure to meet the MDC Alliance delegation was a result of demands made by the Zanu PF delegation,” she said.
