MUGABE CANNOT AFFORD TO STEP DOWN!

Zimbabweans, my brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts, mothers and fathers we shall overcome! The enemy is unforgiving, steadfast and resolute, but together, we can overcome!  If you cannot fly, run! If you cannot run, walk! if you cannot walk, crawl! if you cannot crawl, by all means keep moving! We can now see the promised land!
 
The number of people who voted in the recent Constitutional referendum, in certain provinces was more than the total number of people that the census said there are in these constituencies and the provinces are Matabeleland North, Matabeleland South, Midlands, Masvingo and Mashonaland East. It means that there were great inaccuracies in the census or it means that certain people are cooking numbers in preparation of the general election. The election agency was reconstituted as part of a raft of reforms expected to help ensure credible elections in the country. But Biti said although his party had no problems with ZEC’s commissioners the organization’s secretariat needed to be revamped before the new elections. “I have no problem with the commissioners,” he said.
 
“But the ZEC staff has to be dealt with. We know that they were having meetings with JOC (Joint Operations Command), we know that they were an extension of the security apparatus of this country. We can’t go to an election (with the) current ZEC staff.” Biti also repeated claims senior MDC-T officials had been targeted for assassination before the polls. “They (Zanu PF) are targeting the real centres of the pro-democracy movement and it’s going to come to our party,” he said. “We have evidence of people that are being trained in Israel for assassination attempts…so l wouldn’t be surprised if there are strategic assassinations in the movement.” The allegations – first made by Biti at a party rally in February were however dismissed as “pathetic lies” by Zanu PF.
 
“These (allegations) are manufactured lies and they are only meant to win the hearts of (the MDC-T’s) sponsors,” Zanu PF spokesman Rugare Gumbo said. “We are not even moved by their lies and what they should know is that we are not going to eliminate anyone from the race that way. We will eliminate them democratically. “It is (however) disturbing to note that towards elections, when we have agreed that we are going to create a conducive environment for free and fair elections, the MDC- T is still orchestrating plans to discredit other political parties in the race.”
