The Grace Kwinje Wikileaks dossier

Grace Kwinje, a former journalist turned Movement for Democratic Change politician, made headlines when she claimed that she had come up with the name of the party.

4-EU banks on SADC to put pressure on Zimbabwe

3-Grace Kwinje and Sekai Holland barred from leaving the country

2-Funeral of MDC activist postponed because leaders are in hospital
