The Alliance held a demonstration in Harare today but seems to be sending mixed signals to the electorate about whether it will participate in or boycott the elections.
President Emmerson Mnangagwa and the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission have said nothing can stop the elections now.
Twenty-three candidates are contesting the presidential elections so even if the Alliance pulls out 22 other candidates will still be in the ring.
ZEC boss Priscillah Chigumba has stated that she is doing everything by the book and had even bent backwards to accommodate opposition parties but she is hitting into brickwalls.
MDC Alliance leader has said he is not going to boycott the elections so the current moves are now being viewed by some as a way to building up a case to challenge any defeat.
