Ncube blasts Mugabe, Tsvangirai

The president of the smaller Movement for Democratic Change, Welshman Ncube, today said President Robert Mugabe should go and said MDC-T was a bunch of “pseudo democrats and hypocrites”. Ncube who took over the reins last night said:  “To those who refuse to hand over power to a new generation of leaders, those who think that they are born to lead, we say we are going to organise against you and we tell you that the people of Zimbabwe will reject you in the next election.” On Tsvangirai and his party, he said: “We refuse to be intimidated; we refuse to be cowed by your lies and your herd mentality even if you are supported by your friends in the media.”
