Chamisa alleges foul play

Tuesday's ruling by the Bulawayo High Court left the MDC party crying foul as it played straight into Zanu-PF's hands, which analysts said was the biggest beneficiary of the confusion in the MDC party.

University of Zimbabwe (UZ) political science lecturer Eldred Masunungure said Nelson Chamisa's MDC party had been dealt a body blow by the ruling adding that Zanu-PF would capitalize on the confusion in the country's largest opposition party.

Masunungure said the squabbling between Chamisa and Thokozani Khupe over the party's symbols will confuse the electorate at the forthcoming polls, suggesting the only way for the barrister to end the charade would be to rebrand the MDC.
