Movement for Democratic Change leader Welshman Ncube has labelled politicians campaigning against devolution as scaremongers afraid of democracy.
Addressing supporters when he was donating stationery at the launch of a community development project at Daisyfield Primary School in Gweru yesterday, Ncube said a new constitution without devolution would be useless.
Ncube said it is unfair for someone in Harare to determine the affairs of people in Chipinge or Tsholotsho, he said.
At the weekend, Bulawayo governor and Zanu PF deputy spokesperson Cain Mathema said Ncube and other politicians campaigning for devolution were stupid and daft.
The launch of the comunity development projects began with the donation of exercise books, stationery, 50 desks and chairs to the school in a ceremony that was attended by multitudes of people comprising of parents and traditional leaders.
Daisy Field Primary School is one of the poor schools in the Midlands that were established in the new resettlement area. The school had no furniture and the infrastructure was on a dilapidated state.
After the donation the MDC leadership and the community went on to do renovations to the school classroom and the painting of the block.
