Why the MDC will win the elections

The Movement for Democratic Change is going to win the next elections because the MDC is a people’s project and the people will protect their project, party secretary general and Finance Minister Tendai Biti said.

Biti said this in Pretoria where he was urging Zimbabweans living in South Africa to go and vote in the referendum scheduled for this Saturday.

“When we go to a credible election, the MDC will win and Morgan Tsvangirai will be the next president of Zimbabwe. The MDC is a people’s project, it’s not a political party which was formed in an air-conditioned hotel … the people will protect their project,” he was quoted as saying.

Biti said the constitution that the people would be voting for was one of the best in the world.

“I am a constitutional lawyer myself, those who have read it will agree with me that it can hold its own against the best in the world, including the South African constitution which is one of the finest,” he said.
