The deputy chairman of the National Constitutional Assembly George Mkwananzi today said the Movement for Democratic Change is in an unenviable position in the unity government and is like a trapped animal unable to untangle itself. “They still see some relevance for them to continue inside but, they still continue to be humiliated and embarrassed by Mr Robert Mugabe within the unity government. So, they don’t know what to do. They would want to walk out, but they see all the ghastly probabilities of the kind of horror that was experienced before the unity government,” Mkwananzi said. MDC leader and Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai yesterday declared a constitutional crisis citing several violations of the global political agreement by President Robert Mugabe.
