Chamisa addresses aspiring parliamentary candidates, insists party will respect women and youth quotas

The people’s president took time to walk the candidates through the five pillars of the party’s policy programme when it wins the next election. He gave minute details of the party’s policy programme in addressing the governance culture, the economy, social services, infrastructure rehabilitation and international relations.

President Chamisa dismissed the mantra of the current government, saying under his leadership, Zimbabwe will be best for business. He said the party was concerned about the deteriorating standard of life to the majority of Zimbabweans in the rural areas. He took time to spell out to the candidates his comprehensive programme for the development and urbanization of rural areas (DURA).

A whopping 3 418 candidates have expressed interest in representing the party at parliamentary and local government level, pointing to the massive excitement the party has ignited across the country.

Other leaders who addressed the workshop include national chairperson Hon. Morgen Komichi, Secretary-General Mr. Douglas Mwonzora, deputy secretary general Hon. Paurina Mpariwa, secretary for elections Hon. Murisi Zwizwai, organizing secretary Hon. Amos Chibaya, national women’s assembly chairperson Hon. Lynnette Karenyi, youth assembly chairperson Happymore Chidziva and deputy treasurer-general Mr. Charlton Hwende.

The aspiring candidates had time to ask questions and interact with the party leadership. The party’s candidate selection process which includes primary elections will complete by the 12th of May 2018.

The party is prioritizing rural areas in this year’s campaign in an operation code-named  Gogoi Tisvikewo Ekuhle.

In line with the operation, President Chamisa his MDC Alliance partners and the party leadership will be addressing a rally at Jonas Primary School in Seke communal lands. On Sunday, the MDC Alliance juggernaut rolls to Mubaira Growth Point in Mhondoro.

Behold the new!
