MDC-T says all roads lead to Bulawayo tomorrow

The Morgan Tsvangirai faction of the Movement for Democratic says all roads will be leading to Bulawayo tomorrow where the party is organising a protest against poverty, joblessness, corruption, misgovernance and human rights abuses.

Party Vice-President Thokozani Khupe is expected to give the keynote address.

Tsvangirai, who is still in South Africa where he is recuperating, said on Wednesday he was in a much better shape than the country.

He issued the statement as thousands of Zimbabwe African National Union-Patriotic Front supporters marched in Harare in solidarity with their 92-year-old leader President Robert Mugabe who told the people that he was not going anywhere.

The opposition, which was telling him to step down, could go hang.

MDC-T spokesman Obert Gutu rubbished ZANU-PF’s million-man march as a puerile and utterly purposeless march which was a spectacular flop compared to the “mother of all demonstrations” the MDC-T staged on 14 April.
