A Norton legislator Temba Mliswa said the Zimbabwe's opposition political parties coalition being planned is too weak to challenge President Robert Mugabe and his Zanu PF

He said the planned grand coalition of opposition political parties whose prime aim is to topple President Robert Mugabe and his Zanu PF party is too weak to achieve the goal.

The foul mouthed Mliswa has repeated his remark that his former Zanu PF is unstoppable.

"If Zanu-PF decided to focus on addressing the policies in their manifesto and not the factions, which are there, they are untouchable" he told reporters on Wednesday.

"The opposition has no strategy and answer to the problems of this country. "I said it and I will repeat it, you cannot win an election in this country without a component of Zanu-PF.  Do your maths. Zanu-PF had over 60 percent in 2013 while opposition had below 40 percent. Even if the opposition gets together, it will still remain 40 percent. I have not seen anything meaningful that they have done".

Zanu PF romped to victory in the Bikita-West by-election recently.
