Tsvangirai launches campaign

Prime Minister and Movement for Democratic Change leader Morgan Tsvangirai is to launch his 2013 election campaign at Rudhaka Stadium in Marondera today with the main message being: Yes- Together we can complete the change.

He will also unveil the party’s manifesto which “touches” on robust and inclusive economy, rural transformation, infrastructure development, health delivery and promotion of people’s rights.

The party says it is ready to form a new government that will create over one million jobs in the next five years and a $200 billion economy by 2040.

It also promises to change the system of suppression and corruption in Zimbabwe to a government that is based on accountability, transparency and openness.

The party says its track record in the inclusive government has been impressive as it has managed to restore hope to the people of Zimbabwe.

“The inclusive government through ministers from the MDC managed to reduce the inflation rate from 231 million percent to a single digit of less than five percent.

“Public hospitals, clinics and schools, which had collapsed due to misplaced priorities by the then ZANU-PF government were reopened stocked with medicines and textbooks for the students while supermarkets are now fully stocked.

“This economic dispensation gave the people hope that under an MDC government it is possible to have the country working again,” the party said.
