The national People's Democratic Party chairman Samuel Sipepa-Nkomo has vowed to dislodge ruling Zanu-PF from power in the next elections.

PDP is currently holding its inaugural congress.

Sipepa-Nkomo was delivering the state of the party and the country address to delegates.

"We join Zanu-PF on the rugged political terrain with a commitment to form a government. We acknowledge the shared history for democratic change with the MDC-T. For them democracy was about how deep one hated Mugabe and their ability to praise Save Morgan Tsvangirai's Save totem.

"We refuse to be carbon copies of Zanu-PF!" declared Sipepa-Nkomo.

He added "There was a time when all hope seemed lost. The setting aside of the reunification process set a precedence for more misfortunes including the recall of MPs."

"The recall was like a sucker punch but it was the affected MPS who rallied all of us together to take the fight to the next level. To us it was a natural adjustment and we view it not as a setback."

"PDP will be as party bed-rocked on the social democracy and African nationalism. PDP is a game changer in the Zim political dynamic. We will have a president who is part of the team and not an individual."

"We will commit ourself to changing the political narrative in Zimbabwe.
