MDC-T vice president Nelson Chamisa has declared that the MDC Alliance must be led by Morgan Tsvangirai to avert disunity in the opposition ranks ahead of next year's crunch elections, NewZimbabwe.com reported.
Chamisa said while the party is clear on the importance of a united opposition in the 2018 ballot, leadership of such coalition pacts must be under people who are acceptable to majority of people and perceived as loyal to the democratic cause.
"Our bus as MDC is never full, even on the carrier we invite you Mai (Joice) Mujuru but what we do not want is for you to drive because we can't be sure you won't take it back to where it's coming from.
"I have been sent by president (Morgan) Tsvangirai to say we need everyone. Even (Tendai) VaBiti although you had gone wherever you had gone influenced by the wrong spirit, you can come back but as you come there is no leaf which can return to its stem after falling. It can only help the tree to grow well," said Chamisa speaking during a rally in Chikomba on Saturday.
