MDC Alliance leader Nelson Chamisa has just finished his online rally (eRally) on the political and economic situation in Zimbabwe. At the end of his speech, Chamisa addressed Zimbabwe on the way forward.
Here are the key points:
No reforms no elections says Chamisa
The MDC Alliance President has revealed that his party will not participate in 2023 elections if electoral reforms are not implemented to their satisfaction.
Transitional authority
Chamisa says his party is looking forward to see a transitional authority running he government of Zimbabwe to implement reforms that are required for elections to be conducted.
Chamisa says the Harvest House is privately owned and they will not rush to attempt to retake it as it is not yet the time. He dismissed Mwonzora’s claims that it is owned by the party. He says they can retake it anytime they want but the MDC Alliance is avoiding violence.
MDC Alliance Name
Chamisa said, “Do not be worried that the MDC-T will take our name (MDC Alliance). Zita harina basa. (A name doesn’t matter.) We are strengthening the people and the party and we are focused on the people’s agenda. Our focus is jobs for the people and to bring food on the table.”
Action
“We will perform our action at the right time, we have our own time table,” says Nelson Chamisa

“We are seeing other people starting their own initiatives. We want to tell you that we will support any democratic initiative that can result in freedom for the people. We will join those initiatives. Even those who are in government and want to work towards freedom, we will support them even the civil servants,” says the MDC Alliance leader.
Chamisa signed off by speaking about his party’s RELOAD initiative (Return to Legitimacy and Democracy).
