The Zimbabwe African National Union-Patriotic Front wrestled seats from the Movement for Democratic Change by targeting constituencies held by senior Movement for Democratic Change officials, reports said today. The party won six seats in Harare including those held by Theresa Makone and Jameson Timba, both from MDC leader Morgan Tsvangirai’s inner circle- often dubbed the kitchen cabinet but failed to unseat Tendai Biti. “We identified a need that we could realistically deliver on, and we ran with it. There were particular seats we targeted four years ago for strategic reasons, which we set out to win. We got most of them.”
