Farai Dziva|MDC leader Nelson Chamisa has said the opposition party will not “allow anyone to seize the people’s struggle.”

Chamisa made the remarks while presenting his Vision 2020 in Harare on Tuesday.

“The reality on the ground is that more than two years after November 2017, and more than 18 months after the 30 July 2018 election, time is running out for Zimbabwe.

Impatience engulfs the nation and the real danger is that all and sundry will be engulfed by forces and processes that are intolerant to the continued reproduction of the terrible status quo.

We remain committed to genuine dialogue. Our position will not change. What we want is useful dialogue. It is not dialogue for the purposes of accomodation, photo opportunities or political expediency.

We are a party that has learnt that the people’s struggle must not be hijacked by incomplete or captured processes that provide limited relief, improper answers and imperfect temporary remedies.

We reiterate our position that dialogue must lead to a transitional mechanism that stops the country’s slide towards total collapse. This must be followed by genuine reforms and free elections,” said Chamisa.
