MDC-T leader Morgan Tsvangirai has claimed that he is has fully recovered from the deadly cancer of the colon.

Tsvangirai disclosed he is battling cancer of the colon in June after he looked frail and unwell when he participated in a demonstration in Harare which saw thousands of his supporters marching to demand the resignation of rival President Robert Mugabe over corruption and economic mismanagement.

Tsvangirai announced his clean bill of health on Wednesday, reports indicate.

"If we can defeat cancer we can defeat Zanu PF. I am feeling very healthy now and I am confident that we are going to win the 2018 elections" he told his party supporters.

"Some have said the MDC has no post-election plan of how to take this country forward. Today, I want to run you through our major areas of focus when, and not if we form the next government".

At the height of his aliment which saw some top members calling for his resignation, it was revealed that Mugabe gave him $70 000 to meet part of his medical bills.
